Just like humans, ferrets make different noises for different emotions. Some ferrets are more talkative than others. I've heard of ferrets that never make a sound, while others chuckle all the time.
DOOK
- A clucking noise that comes from a happy woozel. Some people including I think a dook resembles the sound of a clucking chicken.
HISS
- A hissing sound (sounds like that of a cat only not as scratchy) that comes from an annoyed, mad, or a ferret that wants to play rough.
BARK
- A loud chirp that occurs in a very excited or frightened furball. If your fuzzy makes this noise, make sure you know why, if he is in danger assist him immediately.
SCREECH
- A high-pitched sound accompanined or even replaced by rapid chattering. The Screech is a reaction to extreme pain, fright, or anger. If your fuzzy makes this noise, make sure you know why, if he is in danger assist him immediately.
WHINE
- A low or high complaining cry. Your fuzzy will make this sound if he is injured, wanting attention, or scared. If your fuzzy makes this noise, make sure you know why, if he is in danger assist him immediately.
