Ghetto fabulous! Gaha! Not enough bling for that, though.

2 Theresa 04.30.08 at 2:52 pm

OMG that nose…that NOSE!! It’s so cute it hurts.

3 Hon Glad 04.30.08 at 2:53 pm

Fifi would like to travel the world help sick children and bring about world peace, oh and climb up drain pipes.

4 Marbrit 04.30.08 at 2:53 pm

I loff that you can see his/her hairs individually!
So regal a pose.

5 yankeebird 04.30.08 at 2:58 pm

Yeah, I think “ghetto fabulous” fits, at least on the one with feathers.

6 GreedySkunk 04.30.08 at 2:58 pm

OMG, I seriously want to grab the screen and bury my nose in the ferret musk! So cute! OK, that’s it. I’m going home and setting up a photo studio for my own carpet sharks.

They do Glamour Shots for PETS? I’d love to bring my babies, if only they were more well-behaved (which I’m fully aware is my fault).

8 ThreeCatNight 04.30.08 at 2:59 pm

The first shot shows me in my earnest, attentive mode.
The second shot, well, I had to fight them tooth and nail to get rid of that boa! You can see that distasteful look on my face. What can I say – blue just ISN’T my color! I do like the third shot best, though. Don’t you? I think it shows the sweet, candid and casual side of me. That’s the shot I’ll be sending out for casting calls.

9 GreedySkunk 04.30.08 at 2:59 pm

By the way, I love the splayed back legs in the last photo.

10 ermine violin 04.30.08 at 3:01 pm

How on earth did they get a ferret to sit still that long? HOW??

This is going to go down in history as the week of superlatives on the CO

11 cutles 04.30.08 at 3:19 pm

He looks like a stuffed toy in the first one. Body by Gund.

12 Annie 04.30.08 at 3:21 pm

Ghetto Fabulous just really says it all

Really and Truely.
LOL

13 Kar 04.30.08 at 3:56 pm

That last one kills me. Especially those folded paws!!!

14 Fegli 04.30.08 at 4:24 pm

Well, we all know ferrets were cute, but still… <3

15 Babs 04.30.08 at 4:30 pm

Man, that ferret is WORKIN’ IT. Tyra would be proud.

16 Kristine 04.30.08 at 4:35 pm

Oh God thats great. Love its white nose. The middle picture makes me laugh.
I didn’t know ferrets could pose like that!
He has his paws together like “Yeah I’m sexy, jealous?”

17 Squinty 04.30.08 at 4:51 pm

squeeeeee! i just almost peed my pants on this one

18 zeldapie 04.30.08 at 4:53 pm

Oh dear gawd, that last shot is killing me. AAAAAAGH!
*faints

19 Sheila 04.30.08 at 5:06 pm

Darn that face was made to be in pictures!

20 Mary (the first) 04.30.08 at 5:24 pm

They’re adorable.. and I say “they” because it looks clearly to me that photo #2 and #3 are not the same ferret.. #2 has freckles on her muzzle and #3 does not…. not sure about #1 . All both or 3 of them are wonderful though.

21 chanpon 04.30.08 at 5:25 pm

Great job, Ms. Ferret. I’m happy to announce that you are still in the running for America’s Next Top Model.

22 harlemgrrl 04.30.08 at 5:57 pm

Best. Yearbook. Page. Ever.

23 jen 04.30.08 at 6:00 pm

i can’t believe these poses!!!! what a cutie!

24 riolinda 04.30.08 at 6:24 pm

that last shot is soo cute! legs out and paws over each other. :)

25 binky-mama 04.30.08 at 6:43 pm

OMG this is SO REDONK!!!!
There is something Napoleon Dynamite Deb’s Glamor Shots about this. All he needs to do is make a fist out of his leetle paw, put it up to his chin and plaster a cheesy grin on his face.

26 Holly 04.30.08 at 7:07 pm

Ferret senior pics? Darling!

27 Marianne 04.30.08 at 7:25 pm

this is so precious it’s hurts!!

28 Marianne 04.30.08 at 7:26 pm

*it

29 Brak_Silverbone 04.30.08 at 8:08 pm

That is one skilled photographer! Every ferret I’ve ever met has been a Squirmy McSquirmersons and not at all about the sitting still.

30 Sierra 04.30.08 at 8:11 pm

omg i can’t even take it! that cute little thing doesn’t even look real! i can’t believe how cool they are with getting their picture taken. gahhhh

31 Sierra 04.30.08 at 8:11 pm

omg i can’t even take it! that cute little thing doesn’t even look real! i can’t believe how cool they are with getting their picture taken. gahhhh

32 momof2kitties 04.30.08 at 8:26 pm

Well, if this isn’t the textbook definition of “redonk”, then I don’t know what is. Unbelievable.

33 helen 04.30.08 at 8:36 pm

OMG, what a deeeeeva! It’s unimaginable how a pix like the last on could be taken! Isn’t ferret moving constantly like crazy?
And what a model! What a sense of sensational poses! She’s gonna win America’s Cute Top Model!!! Let’s cast a contest like that RIGHT NOW! Fox? Abc? Mtv? Anyone???The last photo is so very pretending-childish-purity like. I bet she definitely can be a little evil the evilston sometimes, like chewing on your fav sweater.Imagine taking this photo on the floor… Would it be kyooooot too, if the photographer is also laying on the ground splaying legs?

34 One Eyed Daruma 04.30.08 at 8:37 pm

I have never been prouder. *wipes away a tear*

35 helen 04.30.08 at 8:37 pm

AHHHHHHH, tewtewly spoiled creature. SPOILED!!!

36 helen 04.30.08 at 8:39 pm

@One Eyed Daruma

Congrats! Congrats! Go buy lottery pleeeez!

37 Gail 04.30.08 at 10:56 pm

@OneEyedDaruma: Congratulations on your extremely well-behaved Miss Ferret USA, Graduating Senior, Aspiring Actress, whatever!!! Totally PROSH!!!

38 Teirra 05.01.08 at 12:11 am

Those r sooo cute! I use to have 1 but she died a few years ago. Her name was Clinky.

39 berthaservant 05.01.08 at 12:12 am

To me, this looks more like Ms. Ferret is posing for the cover of her first album, “Jesus and Me.” She’s got her ‘Holy Holy Holy’ face on and is gazing towards the heavens waiting for the sweet loving embrace of the almighty Son of God. I think she’s going to be opening for Faith +1 on their new tour:

40 KatRich 05.01.08 at 2:09 am

OK… I’m not a big squee-er, but…
OMG! THAT IS TEH SQEEEEEE! SO KEWT!

(I have to throw up now: too much cute. Oh god… way too cute.)

41 Marie 05.01.08 at 2:49 am

Oh freakin’ brother! This is too silly, funny and cuuute!

In other words PERFECT for CO! Hee! ;D

42 Melisma 05.01.08 at 3:40 am

Oh my gosh…
Where are these photographer people?
Can I bring my Eva to them? Will they photograph chinchillas?

43 Subhangi 05.01.08 at 6:23 am

AWWWWWWW!!! She looks like an otter!

44 spiffy 05.01.08 at 8:40 am

i doubt the ferret stayed still very long, especially in those cute poses. it’s all about fast shutter speed and bright enough lights.

45 Gail 05.01.08 at 8:56 am

@Berthaservant: LOL!! Although I suspect the feather boa may be a bit much for the “faith” crowd!

46 Thatredhead 05.01.08 at 1:23 pm

Are we sure it isn’t stuffed? There’s no way a ferret would sit that posed!

47 sylvie78 05.01.08 at 3:03 pm

That ferret totally knows how to smile with it’s eyes. ANTF.

48 Theo 05.01.08 at 3:18 pm

ANTF? Apostrophe Not Totally Fitting?

49 Heather 05.01.08 at 3:44 pm

Those ARE three separate ferrets, YES THEY ARE REAL. Getting them to “pose” is a matter of timing & toys (& a good photographer). “Ghetto Fabulous” is the name of the third ferret, who is now older, & is the father to the first two. How do I know this? Because that precious little girl in the middle is mine. Her name is Mystic. The first ferret is her brother Deuce. The two males (first & third) are owned by GFX (breeder). I have two beautiful ferrets from this litter & I can tell you that Julie from GFX has amazing ferrets (& obviously great with the camera).

50 Katie 05.01.08 at 3:49 pm

I suspect there was some tranquilizer involved here!

51 Heather 05.01.08 at 4:30 pm

Thx, to whoever submitted these photos! You made the day for Julie (the breeder) & I am quite proud of my baby girl too! =)

52 Cheryl 05.01.08 at 5:37 pm

I think this converted me. I have never been a ferret fan, but this one is ADORABLE!!!!

53 Lee Ann 05.03.08 at 12:39 pm

Cheryl. Don’t let this make you impulsively go out and buy a ferret. Don’t get me wrong. Ferrets are wonderful pets, but one really needs to research it before buying one. A ferret may not be the pet for you. They are more work than what you would think and have behaviors that may not be welcomed in your home. I’ve had 3 for the past 7 years and I love them to death and I just hate to think someone would impulsivly buy one because ‘they are sooo cute’ and end up realizing it’s not what they thought it would be and neglect it or give up on it.

Katie. Their eyes are too bright and alert looking for them to be tranquilized.

The great shots are probably from lots of playing before hand and the photographer caught them at the moment they were getting their second wind.

54 Heather 05.04.08 at 12:19 am

Lee Ann, I agree with you on impulse buying. That’s why I wish pet stores would not sell ferrets, because too many people see these cute creatures, & buy them without knowing what they’re in for.
Mine are rescued or private bred (obviously) =)
These adorable babies in these pics come from a breeder who has put alot into working with a couple other breeders, to get such beautiful ferrets. I am glad I found her! Mystic (the middle ferret, with the boa) is so tiny, but makes up for it in attitude. I adore her & her brother.
This breeder does NOT use tranquilizers to take thes pics.

55 peep 05.07.08 at 4:50 pm

There is NO way this is a real critter..it just cannot exist…
the cuteness is too cute, and
I want my medical expenses covered for falling off chair hitting head and passing out for two days.

56 krakherjack 05.09.08 at 12:01 am

hands clasped and everything!!!
geeze
that’s one good ferret!!!
