Did you say ferrets? My fiance and I own 2 ferrets...actually, she owns them, I just live with/feed/water/clean up after & play with them. They are great, one is a silver and the other is a blackfoot, I think. (One is all silver/white and the other is like a raccoon...). Anyway, they are great, but I cannot figure out why our 15lb cat would be afraid of them???
