Their body is like one big tail, that they use for the ultimate ninja balance.

The benefit of being goofy yet long and low to the ground

It' may be goofy but it's a successful hunting tactic typically employed by members of the weasel family see kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hap1iK5m2KiZpnk.html

They are far from uncoordinated, they just think on a different level. My Mom always said that trying to pet a ferret was like trying to hold running water. Whatever it is that they do, it works well for them. 🤣

Taus :Cat is always so beautiful and quick and cautious and then we see ferret, omg, the energy, the beauty...and then i must realize as a human, these are killing machines , endowed with the power of nature to make them cute, playful...as humans can be also...aren’t... we all so cute...and god is laying there on a rug watching all of this... the question is now: Who is watching God?

Uhhh my cat trys to eat my hamster and dog...

@@jqbxmi263 The hamster thing seems sort of natural but the dog to?

Cats are just calm and intelligent. Its understands that the ferret wants to play so the cat calmly plays with it as if it's a young cat or something because the ferret is hyperactive like a kitten

@@Ryan-el5ns Depends on how big the dog!

Yeah. Forgive me if I'm assuming wrong but the cat must be pretty old, or he/she would be more .. energetic.

😀😀Thanks for making my day bro

I know this looks like the ferret could run rings around the cat, but looks are deceiving. Here in Arizona it's a well known fact, I mean theory, that if you have a scorpion problem, get a cat (or two.) Cat's are not immune to a scorpion's venom, but that have lightning fast reflexes when it's life or death. A buddy of mine out here had a ferret and it got stung by a scorpion and died. Even kittens rarely get stung. It's weird.

@@billt8504 This isn't so much to do with speed/reflexes rather than natural behavior - Members of the weasel family are a lot more curious and inquisitive than cats, plus they are much more omnivorous (many members of the weasel family eat scorpions and spiders as part of their natural diet), so ferrets are FAAAR more likely to hunt out scorpions and mess with them, leading to them being stung more often that cats. Also, cats DO get stung by scorpions on occasion, but more often they get bitten by snakes. Ferrets, on the other hand, are natural predators of snakes and hunt them voraciously in the wild, rarely getting bitten. I'm not sure if any research has been done into the relative reflexes of cats vs ferrets, but they're both EXTREMELY quick, with ferrets having a massive maneuverability advantage and cats being bigger and stronger, so who knows which would win in an actual life and death fight. (Source: I'm a veterinarian in Texas and have seen a LOT of cats with scorpion stings and snake bites. 🙁)

"I ever seen"? Yeah well done there

I know right

Lol

You’re like this is the dumbest comment I can make.

lol the picture in my mind of that is hilarious. I've always wondered what it's like to have a ferret for a pet. Is it more work (for want of a better word) than having a dog? I realize "work" sounds negative; I don't mean it in that way, but I'm guessing you know what I mean

@@lloydb4469 I used to have one too. Like any pet, as long as you're willing to clean up a bit after them, they are relatively easy to care for. The one i had sleep for nearly 20 hours a day, and most of them spend most of their lives sleeping lol. Ferrets are great comic relief. When you let them go exploring, they put on a circus act. One of the things i remember my ferret did, was it figured out how to get into our drawers/furniture. We then discovered she was moving all of our socks, and bringing them under the couch, I think she was tryna build a nest. Also no matter how hard you try, they will always find a way to climb something and fall off of it lmao.

@@lloydb4469 Not really. They are a high energy pet though, so when they want to play, you just have to resign yourself to not getting anything done. They also crash hard; it's play, play, play, play SLEEP. They do seem somewhat ADD and will change focus without notice. Kind of amusing in that regard. Both of mine had a "boomerang" game they liked to play. They'd come chattering up to you and start to climb my leg, I'd scoop it up and toss it onto the pillows a few feet away. It'd grab his hind legs in the air and make a high pitched sound that sounded all the world like, "weeeeeeee!" Then he'd come running back up to do it again. Sometimes it'd go for half an hour. Mine (I've had two) were box trained so there's keeping the litter box clean. And they'll need a "den". I used a cat kennel with a lot of blanket stuffed in there. Keep toys around so they'll have something to do at night when you're in bed. It'll minimize but won't stop their need for nocturnal attention. I learned to hand wrestle with mine while snoozing, then he'd curl up and sleep along your arm or neck. There is ferret food but I just kept dry cat food in a bowl and would feed wet to him in the evening. Mine also liked fruit so when I ate an apple, mine would "weasel" up onto the breakfast bar and I'd share a slice. I had one that was a freak for grapes too. They also like salt and the crook of my arm would get licked anytime I came in sweaty and it might get nipped in their enthusiasm. TL;DR: They're not a lot of "work", less than a dog IMHO. Need a den and you'll end up with toys to strep over. Lot's of laughs and cuteness but a little bit wild too.

@@tomduffy5406 congratulations, you have no sense of humor

Cat:they have evolved,and are out for revenge!

When they said that that was my exact thought right before.

I honestly expected the cat to start playing whack a mole there

Nah more like pop goes the weasel

It is rare but certainly happened. All kinds of animals that shouldn't be friends have bonded in some way.

Sounds like a subpar place

@@erismana2105 I hated living there eventually. It’s got tons of homeless people and meth addicts, as well as random trash everywhere. They keep the tourist areas clean but venture into places rarely visited by those on vacation and you find some nasty stuff. Maui is better. I’m sure Kauai is probably better too.

So a cat's hunting instinct is very strong and it really directs what they hunt and what they dont. While ferrets may have an outward appearance of a prey animal, to cats they dont act or smell at all like what their instincts drive them to hunt. Cause of this, if you have particularly curious weasel that tries to initiate play with a mellow cat youll likely see them play together since the cats reflexes will kick in without the kill drive they have for prey.

iirc badgers and coyotes tend to befriend eachother a lot (as in I've read about numerous instances of badgerxcoyote friendships) and it stems from the fact that they help eachother hunt. Symbiotic relationship.

haha exactly

Yes, they are lovers

Yea but should still watch over when they play together.

I wonder how much of any the owners/people observing them affected their play. like are the aware enough to be like, "oh these big ass furless animals don't like it when I bite or hiss at them so Ill take it easy on their weird animal friend too"

This is so true 🙏🏼

and in fact will be the end of the cat.

red bull and crack seems to be part of the diet of these creatures. Cat: that is the longest mouse I have ever seen in my life.

Belarion A.D. that's for sure!

Ferrets are proven problem solvers. I came home one day and found mine on the top shelf of my closet. Another time she had used drawers as a ladder to get to the counter top, then push open the towel drawer so she could sleep in it.

whack a mole is right

Belarion A.D. All I could think about was wack mole

skubischta aww imagine finding your Ferret sleeping in there one day. Cutest thing ever

Is it not a pole cat

@@markscouler2534 ~ I reckon half? It's got an albino head?

It's not a way of lulling a prey into a hypnosis state or false sense of security whatsoever. Their constant and rapid movement confuses their prey and tires them out as they struggle to keep an eye on the ferret. If their prey also tries to attack, they struggle to actually hit them since the ferret is constantly whipping around. If the prey tries to flee, the ferret will chase, pounce, but then quickly bounce away t resume it's war dance to further tire out it's prey. Eventually, the prey grows tired and panicked. If they don't try to flee, the ferret then lunges and sinks it's teeth into the back of their prey's necks. If their prey is too tired to struggle, the ferret then whips it's body around while still biting down, forcing it's teeth deeper into the spine and eventually snapping it.

AirForce576 because it's play.

AirForce576 No shit, because it's play behavior as well. I meant that more towards their "fact" of a ferrets hunting style.

That is a really interesting fact! Thank you for sharing that with us Megan :)

mikie2501 "Bounced and let out a loud squeak" I can hardly breathe man😂😁 mine would do that too, I had one skinny one named mobley and another named Mr Mcfluffins. The fat male one (MMF) would try to jump literally 3 feet from my bed to my drawer, miss and fall on his stomach and also make a loud squeak. I got to check to see if he is alright and he gets up and hops it off like a nut 😆 I absolutely love ferrets man, but they are a lot of work

mikie2501 haha me too!

That is ancient for a ferret. Wow. The main reason I've never gotten another is their short life spans and being so common to die of cancer.

She lived forever! Wow! How cool :)
