Do you all ever get kisses in odd places from your ferrets? Oz has decided that he likes kissing closed eyes better than anywhere else. He sometimes kisses my cheeks or lips, but mostly, he's an eye kisser. I think this is odd, but fuzzies are not the most logical animals in the world. It's actually really sweet-I stuck my face into their cage to kiss someone on the top shelf, and Oz went straight for the eye, and kissed and kissed.
Also another cute behavior that I wonder if you guys know anything about is reciprocating grooming behaviors. Sometimes, when I scratch their backs lightly, they'll lean over and start licking my hand. I think they like it, because they'd just move if they didn't, but I wonder what that is all about. <3

Sonny is also an eye lid and cheek kisser he also licks your arms if you are "grooming" (petting) him. then he stretches and yawns. he thinks that we are just big ferrets.

Sonny and Godiva sound like sweeties to be sure. I am sure they do think we're just being big ferrets

It's neat that you brought this up today; Willow, who was the worst fear-biter that we ever came across, and it took more than a year to even START trusting her, she could turn that quickly -- Sherry was taking her and Miss Emily and Suki upstairs for their day-time run, and stopped so that I could kiss them, and little Willow just held onto my face and started kissing me, from the eyes and lips and all around , until the other two started squirming and it had to stop, but not by Willow's choice -- I love that little girl so much!

Kahlua and SoCo are both reciprocating groomers, if I scratch them they groom me. SoCo often gives kisses on tearducts!! LoL, I dont have to be crying but if I shut my eyes, he will lick my tear ducts.. he also likes to kiss me on my ears (either the lob or the cartilage at the top) lol hes a funky boy.

What a lovey boy Pixie thinks ankles, feet, toes (even when socks are on ) wrists and arms are the best place for kisses. Trixie and Dixie aren't kissy girls.

It's only when she's hungry that she gets a little nippy, but otherwise I trust her as much as I do any of the others around my eyes or lips

Shiloh gets nippy when she's hungry too, but she's easy to predict in that arena. It is great that she has built such a good relationship with you all. It must have been hard work, but I would be willing to be it is so worth it.

There isn't much that's more satisfying than bringing a terrified ferret around to knowing that she's loved and taken care of, and that the world isn't out to get her --

My girl Sasha gives eye lid kisses and Berry LOVES to bury her nose in your ear and just sniff and lick like crazy
