I just know general info on weasels.  I have lots of ferrets and I want to get a pet mink.  I read all kinds of stories on an exotic pet list, but its mostly minks, racoons, skunks, kinkajous, squirrels, exotice rodents and birds (which don’t interest me). No stoat stories.  Try google and see if you can get some general info. There is a website on exotic pets that has all kinds of info. KG

Response:

Weasels are the most successful hunters for their size in the animal kingdom.  Both hunter and prey.  Very short attention spans, incredible curiosity and problem solving skills and sense of humor.   They are totally ADHD. Some weasels do like to play with their prey like a cat before killing it. Minks that are socialized as household pets enjoy playing games that involve taunting and teasing and like to make people laugh.  They can be very mean tothe point of vicious if they don’t get their way, which means you really have to be incredibly good at training them to redirect that aggression Ferrets are much more mellow, shorter attention spans, and more forgiving.

If you were to pick one to resemble your personality or attitude or traits which would you pick 5. Are there any animals you are afraid of? Hugs, TK

TK" wrote > 1. What animals fascinate you?

Ah there’s so many… I’m fascinated by snakes – there’s something so beautiful about them, their eyes and their movements. I’ve never understood the instinctal fear of snakes. Fascinated by all sorts of reptiles really Elephants… their size, their skin. Their pace. Hmm… lots about elephants. Dolphins. All sorts of cat animals – their eyes, their movements…. Insects. They’re so strange, like tiny monsters, beautiful in their strangeness. Dragonflies. I love dragonflies – I used to be petrified by them when I was a kid, and I’m still a bit aeeeeweeeee around them but I think they’re absolutely magical. And I love the English name for them Hmmm… There’s moremoremore but my brain is slowing down… > 2. Do you indentify with any animal?

Er… Why did I ask these questions… I used to identify with lions – but that’s probably mainly ’cause I’m a Leo. Cameleon…. Says it all… > 3. If you were asked to pick an animal to resemble your physical appearance > which would you pick?

A stoat > 4. If you were to pick one to resemble your personality or attitude or > traits which would you pick

A cameleon. Or some sort of cat animal, a small one probably. > 5. Are there any animals you are afraid of?

SHARKS… *shrugg* Hugs, TK

1.  All animals fascinate me.  My dog and cat can make me "read their minds," my horse used to know what kind of mood I was in and match it. 2.  I do not identify as such with any animal except if I had to say which animal I am, it would be a rabbit.  Quiet, wary, run away. 3.If I were asked to pick an animal I most resemble looks wise it would be a rhino <g>. 4.  Personality:  Again, a rabbit.  Definitely NOT a predator. 5.  Animal I am most afraid of:  MAN. Thanks for that, TK.  It was fun. — Val in Boise

You’re strong > 4.  Personality:  Again, a rabbit.  Definitely NOT a predator. > 5.  Animal I am most afraid of:  MAN.

I’m glad you liked it ) Hugs, TK

1.  What animal fascinates me – cats (I am a Leo). One of my cats and I have a real cosmic connection, and are always there for each other when we need each other. 2.  What animal I identify with – I think I was a cockatoo in a previous life, and would like to be one again in my next life (to satisfy all the flying dreams I have). Seriously folks, these birds really have Bipolar II characteristics/personalities. 3.  What animal I most resemble – I think I look like a cocker spaniel (long hair and big eyes) 4. What animal is most like my personality – My personality is much like a cockatoo… I can be the clown, the life of the party, happy and playful. 5. What animal I am afraid of – I am most afraid of sharks. They are rather mindless predators. — regards, Compucat  >^+^< – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> 1.  All animals fascinate me.  My dog and cat can make me "read their > minds," my horse used to know what kind of mood I was in and match it. > 2.  I do not identify as such with any animal except if I had to say which > animal I am, it would be a rabbit.  Quiet, wary, run away. > 3.If I were asked to pick an animal I most resemble looks wise it would be a > rhino <g>. > 4.  Personality:  Again, a rabbit.  Definitely NOT a predator. > 5.  Animal I am most afraid of:  MAN. > Thanks for that, TK.  It was fun. > — > Val in Boise

I wish you beautiful flights, Comps. High flying joy wonders > 3.  What animal I most resemble – I think I look like a cocker spaniel (long > hair and big eyes)

You must be very pretty )) > 4. What animal is most like my personality – My personality is much like a > cockatoo… I can be the clown, the life of the party, happy and playful.

You must be a joy for your friends and family > 5. What animal I am afraid of – I am most afraid of sharks. They are

rather mindless predators. I fear shark too. But I think it’s a rather irrational fear. And I think sharks are beautiful mysterious creatures even though I’m terrified of them… *shrugg* {{{{Compucat}}} WArm hugs, TK

> Still just talking…. > 1. What animals fascinate you?

Minks, ferrets, polecats and racoons.  Minks are so intelligent and a fierce hunter, and when socialized as a housepet an absolute riot.  Such soft fur. (I love other peoples pet minks.)  I have 22 ferrets and think they are the greatest pet in the world, certainly not for everyone.  Polecats are just wild ferrets.  Several of my ferrets are polecat crosses.  Racoons. Wouldn’t ever want one for a pet, too much work.  Big, intelligent, insatiably curious with a paws like hands, so they are capable problem solvers and can be extremely destructive. > 2. Do you indentify with any animal?

Dolphins, considered intelligent and possibly as smart as man.  Very interesting reading and fun to watch. and dragons.  (A fantasy animal, but my alltime favorite in that category, especially the Chinese dragons and legends) > 3. If you were asked to pick an animal to resemble your physical appearance > which would you pick?

A fat lazy cat. > 4. If you were to pick one to resemble your personality or attitude or > traits which would you pick > 5. Are there any animals you are afraid of?

Most wild animals.  You need distance and a healthy respect for most animals living in the wild.  They may look cute, but they aren’t Bambi or Smoky the Bear.   I think wild, urban rats genuinely terrify me.  I love domesticated rats.  Something about a great big gray rat the size of a small cat scares me.
