From the OOP:
This is my ferret Yoko. She is just stuck, not hurt or scared. Just being a silly ferret.
She is really quite small because her mother abandoned her as a baby and so she was malnourished, but she is super fluffy. She was rescued and now lives with us where she is spoiled rotten, but she hasn't quite gotten used to the various house hold products that she can get stuck in yet.
It’s also neat to see how much ferret is actually in a ferret.
You have "Gross Ferret" and "Net Ferret"
It’s imperative the cylinder remains unharmed.
People browsing in compact mode are getting a pretty spicy thumbnail.
Like when I posted these puppies that look like dicks from the thumbnail... https://lemmy.world/post/42177549
Fantastic content, as usual.
This is easily the best thing I've seen all day.
Ohno!
What do they smell like?
I've always heard that ferrets stink but have never smelt any
The female ones don't smell too bad - 'rodenty' but not too pungent.
The males are extremely whiffy. Very musky, akin to BO, gets into everything.
My grandad used to keep them as working ferrets, for flushing rabbits out of their warrens, and fed them on leftover rabbit carcasses. You could smell that from quite a distance.
The babies are incredibly cute - size of your thumb, very soft. The adults are also cute, but have sharp claws and a nasty bite when they're annoyed. They're faster than you might expect, too - can really cover the distance when they get their bounce on.
They smell kinda like the ditch part of ditch weed, or maybe an old man's cologne without the smell pretty part just the old dusty part but also without the "smells like sick" that you may be associating with old people. They're earthy and musky. One of my roommates said they smell like raw sugar without the sweet. Ferrets I've had were descented idk what one with it's glands intact smells like
I can relate. Once my ferret ran off from playtime....it became hide and seek. In 5 minutes the little fucker opened a new paper towel roll, tore off all the paper towels, and managed to get himself stuck in the center roll just like this.
