    ? Looks like a ferret? Is that another name for a ferret? They’re cute!

      Yes. Ferrets are the domesticated European polecat.

      Ferret is the name for a domesticated polecat! I think a ferret with black markings like that is referred to as polecat as well.

          Aah apparently its more of a UK thing to call them polecats or poleys rather than sable
