I don't think ferrets are rodents either, but I could be wrong too If they are rodents, they are my definate favorite. I have wanted one so bad for so long. When I was about to get one, Shiloh came into my life and the chance hasn't come up again.

I also love rats. The boys I babysit for had my favorite rat ever. As soon as I got to their house every time, I'd go get Freckles and he'd ride around on my shoulder all evening.
