The cats are named Rosencrantz and Guildenstern (the two assassins in "Hamlet"). The Lab's name is "Charger". The ferrets are named Sneak and Snoop, and they are dedicated ankle and toe biters. The cats give them a wide berth. The Lab just growls when they try to sneak up for a bite of his tail and they disappear like smoke.
Charger would never hurt the cats 'cause they are close friends. They nap together and actually groom each other. It takes the two cats an hour to give Charger a bath but he can lick them all over in about a minute.
Charger once got really upset with one of the ferrets and grabbed it. I thought the ferret was a goner but Charger just dropped her, made a face, and then ran out to the koi pond and dove in. Ferrets have a certain "air" about them, and Charger learned the hard way. I gave him a peppermint candy. The Koi were not amused.

my stepmother had one once. funny story, but when my stepma had company over once and the ferret got into her laundry and came out with her bra on his head looking at everyone like "look at me".
