Question

What are the chances for a ferret learning to fend off cats?

Answer 1

Ferrets are pretty tough, so in general I'd say pretty good.

Answer 2

my ferret loves cats

Answer 3

mine's too stupid...i want to teach him to be like rikki tikki tavi ,that'd be soo cool. i know my ferret can bite pretty darn hard tho(almost killed my bird in one bite)and once he bites he's like a wolverine and doesn't let go till you smack him really hard.(i'm not abusive i swear).so i bet one could take on a cat pretty fairly.depending on the cat,and wether it's wild or declawed.
