    Its so cute when they yawn like that. A friend had a ferret and i fell in love with him. want one! i want one!!!!

  • werewolfbitevictim:

    @FrozenNight1 lol. i have owned ferrets for 7 years now and i assure you it doesn’t hurt. besides it’s only for 2 mins to take care of their ears and nails. she must have an overly rambunctious ferret for it to still be struggling

  • Landotter1:

    @Ealisha123 What’s not good?

  • NightwishGymnast15:

    My Ferrets don’t seem to respond to scruffing at all, they just squirm out of my hold and continue on with whatever they’re doing. The last thing they do is go into a submissive state. Is there a trick to this?

  • JaceBlade:

    Wow u guys are dumb -_- scruffing a ferret does not hurt them, ferret skin is alot tougher than human skin and even among themselves they would scruff eachother to show dominance and its also a way a mother ferret would move her babies… all it does is basicaly make them body tired, hence the yawn…

  • FrozenNight1:

    O.o That ferret is just like… screaming in silent horror…

  • imejoehiyalol:

    Blood and nerve supply apparantly.

  • TheLOLCanadian:

    What a dumass lmao

  • Skittywolf:

    @panda374 They like to play bite a bit but just as a dog or cat would and they are not aggressive at all, just very playful. (Their bites don’t hurt)

  • Skittywolf:

    “This makes them relax..” *Ferret struggles to get free* 0:48 Lol what an idiot.

  • Skittywolf:

    @Kantasyxx Though a lot of things say that it does look very uncomfortable. D:

  • IcyDeath7:

    to all the dumbshits out there
    scruffing does not hurt the animal. it is loose skin usually used to transport young animals safely or assert dominance. animals do it since it makes animals weak. I dont condone always carrying animals by the scruff but only do it if you need the animal in a weak state for something not transportation. If scruffing hurts your animal then youre doing it fucking wrong. again this doesnt hut your fucking animals.

  • MrMilitaryson:

  • RojasChiller:

    @hansberrylovesyoux3 How bout pet coe >.>

  • Felicitythemeerkat:

    @Kantasyxx i totally agree and when she was holding it like that like it wanted to bite her X) i wouldn’t blame him

  • Kantasyxx:

    I don’t care what anyone says, I will never hold my ferrets like this. It looks very uncomfortable and hurtful >_>

  • Troyjrr:

    who else had to yawn?

  • EminemxFanx4xLyfe18:

    @hansberrylovesyoux3
    This is very true….
    Had to learn the hard way.

  • adaywillcome96:

    @hansberrylovesyoux3 then where do you buy an animal

  • AngSyn89:

    My ferrets actually hated being grabbed by the neck like that. They’d squirm more when I clipped the nails. I just held them, holding their butt and my sis would cut their nails fine. They felt more relaxed that way. But I think some ferrets are different.

  • panda374:

    Is it true ferrets like to bite sometimes? If so why are they so aggressive? At least that is what I heard.
