It just hit me: in the last 24 hrs, I've been kissed by Lola & Rosa (2nd time for both) and Pandora (first time ever). I wonder if they know how upset I've been. It's not like they were close to Alice, but Pandy's been with us for 2 years, and I've been waiting all that time for a kiss from my Big Girl. Dang jaffa just poofed on me

Yes, I think in their own way they know. They know when we are upset or stressed. Those are they best kind of kisses. (the unexpected ones)

Fuzzies always know every time I've been upset and had a bad day even my most hyper will hop in my lap and give lots of kisses. I've had some pretty bad days my nipper akiko who has been around but 2 months gave me kisses didn't even bite my nose on a good day the nose nipping is on. They will always comfort the ferrents. Part of the love for ferrets they want to see us happy just as much as we want them happy.

I believe they do. When my grandfather passed away last month and when he was very ill, Caillou and Juliet were more calmed down and Caillou would give me cuddles for hours, something he had never, ever done before. And Juliet would give me kisses all over every time I picked her up. And when Neichei passed away in August, they did the same, Caillou is more "emotional" like when I yell at him or tell him no for doing something like pooping in the floor or chewing on my carpet he gets all upset and comes up to me and crawls up my leg asking for forgiveness. He's always been strange like that, and he's very nervous to new things and people too, but he's so close and bonded to me, just me. Even when I am sick or days I don't feel good, I get extra kisses and cuddles. Ferrets are such great creatures, aren't they?

I think they understand us a lot better than we understand them.

I'm not sure what a "ferret kiss" is.

A ferret kiss is when they lick you.

Yeah, but I only brag about getting kissed on the nose. I get arm licks when cradling any them in my arm. It's special to get one on the face. And Rosa's arm licks are the lick lick chomp variety.

I am always amazed at how smart they are. So, YES I do think they know that Dad (and Mom) are sad and missing Alice and Poppy. So are they, and I think they are trying to make you feel better and also themselves feel better as you all grieve together.
