Ferrets!

Hi guys! First post of December 2014! This post is ALL about Ferrets :)

___________________________________________ Ferrets have long slender bodies and have fur colors that can range from the normal, cream and brown, or they can be white or even black! They are cute creatures that are well known as pets, but they also live in the wild! ____________________________________ Ferrets are crepuscular, which means they spend 14 to 18 hours a day asleep and are most active around the hours of dawn and dusk (Beginning of morning is dawn, and dusk is begining of night)And did you know that a group of Ferrets is called "Business" (Biz-ness)they are also territorial which means they don't like other ferrets going into their land! And they also like to burrow, or make underground dens (Animal homes are dens). Cool quick fact! Male ferrets are bigger than females! When ferrets get excited they may preform a dance! Known as the weasel war dance. The way they dance, well they like to do a series (Multiple) of side hops and bumping into things. This is not aggressive (Mean) but a joyful dance of playing! But if ferrets are scared, they will hiss like cats! But when they are upset they make soft squeaking noises. ___________________________________ What do ferrets like to eat, you might ask. Well I'm gonna tell you! Ferrets are carnivores, which means they eat meat in the wild. Well if they are your pet, then prepared (something or someone that is ready) dry foods, consisting (Foods that have mostly) almost entirely of meat would be good, but you can also get special blends of ferret food at pet stores. You can ask someone you know that has a ferret, what they eat, or ask someone at a pet store. But many pet store workers recommend you also feed them fruit, but DON'T feed them fruit or vegetables because it is hard for them to digest. Also, just a quick thing to tell you. If your ferret is angry at you, DON'T mess around with them more, because they might bite you! OW! Look out for those teeth!
