response: Oh really!  Apparently they can have white, black, brown or mixed fur.  What color were yours?
original_response: What color was yours, I have always wanted a white one.  I know they can live up to 10 years so like a puppy dog almost.
history: I used to own ferrets. Man I miss having them. Aw sorry to hear it.  Did you know that the word ferret comes from a Latin word meaning little thief?   Apparently ferrets like secreting away small things. THey sure our little theives they always hide stuff under the furniture.
knowledge: They typically have brown, black, white, or mixed fur.
