My ferret: at least as smart as an octopus
So Logi got a timeout today for harassing Gaia. He really needs to stop doing that. But eventually Gaia pooped out, so I put her back in the cage to sleep and took Logi back out.
At that point Kári decided it was *on* and totally attacked his boyfriend. This is good and normal and boyferrets should totally wrestle each other (because then they don't bother Gaia as much).
So you know that octopus that was on the news a while back? The one that can grab a coconut shell and hide in hit and then jump out and attack from it? Okay, keep that image in your head.
While the boys were tussling, Kári bumped into the small plastic Halloween trick-or-treat pumpkin they have to play in. He backed up, so that his butt and body was in it, tipped forward so that it fell over his shoulders, his little nose sticking out, and then waited for Logi to try and bite the plastic and then *PWNED* Logi from inside his 'shell'. Poor Logi was pretty confused (yeah, like that takes much) and couldn't understand how the plastic thing was attacking him. So Kári would either reach out with a paw or his head and whomp on Logi then retreat back into the pumpkin. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat. Eventually Kári had to emerge from the safety of his hideout, but at that point Logi was so bewildered that it took ought-point-eight seconds for Kári to have him by the scruff and on the floor.
Seriously, there's a cartoon in this. What happens when you cross a ferret with a snail with the attack instincts of a shark? You get Kári in a plastic pumpkin.
