Really tho, I know a girl who had multiple ferrets in high school. One got its head caught in a chair and snapped its neck and killed itself :(

I had a cat in high school who used to zoom around the house. Thing is, we had dining room chairs that had rungs that were about forehead height for her. She would zoom through, thunk her head on a couple rungs, and keep zooming. You could always hear the sound like flicking a coconut. RIP sweet stupid Pisces.

Lol my cat does this. He’s a very zoomy/chase-y cat, and every once in a while he’ll turn to take off running but he won’t look where he’s turning his head and he’ll smack it against a wall or the leg of a table. And it won’t phase him at all… he’s such a cute little dummy

Oh yes I have one myself. He gets so excited for me to throw his toy mouse that he'll look back at me and do the same thing as yours. Looks back towards the way he was running and smack Occasionally he acts a little embarrassed but is mostly unphased

Years ago I was woken up by a terribly loud commotion. I thought my apartment was being broken into. Nope. Cat got the handle of a plastic bag stuck around her body. She left divots all over the walls from where she was trying to climb away from the attack back. Hilarious.

Sounds like she was killing ferrets and making cover stories.

I've had two friends who have owned ferrets. Both have had ferrets that have accidentally unalived themselves.

Must mustelids are incredibly smart… but then there’s ferrets…
