What is it about deaf ferrets being the loudest, most vocal ferret around. Gave them a guinea pig tonight and Craven is squeaking bloody murder up there trying to have it all to himself, it was the same way with Precious, if she was getting picked on, man did we know it, the rest of them are just as capable of carrying on but my non hearing ones seem to really take it to a new level.

There is nothing like a couple of deafies to make the hair stand up on the back of your neck because of the pitch and noise that they can make. Whoever coined the phrase "ferrets are a very quiet pet" never, ever heard a couple of deafies going at it over dinner ;D ;D

I've heard my Trixie scream once. I think I would have a nervous breakdown with all that screaming going on   |

Nah, I count all that running up and down the stairs as my daily exercise. Really wished I had the camera tonight, came up the stairs to find Pandora and Craven, both holding onto the GP for dear life and trying to head in two separate directions. Everyone's got their own opinion where food goes around here. Then it was Craven and Koda after that. I think Pip's figured out it's easier to wait until everyone else has stuffed it here and there and gone to bed to eat.

I watched a rat make the trip up and down the hall at least 4 maybe 5 times (the poor thing was dead too ) The screaming matches that ensued on either end of the hallway (one my bedroom, under the bed, the other the living room under the sofa) were horrific. Hissing, spitting, screeching....and of course the thundering feet as one ferret leaves with the prized rat and the others chase after the prize. Lots of exercise ;D ;D. What amazes me is that Lady"B" can actually scream with her mouth full  ciao |

That's what I've never understood- how they can be so LOUD with their mouths stuffed full ;D |

I love food fights. I think it's rather endearing. Hearing those screams when you're not in the room though is pretty intense, because I always have to go make sure everyone is OK
