Oh rats! How to keep your home free of rats

The ferret is also a good ratter. Some people are turned off by their powerful, musky scent but there are many people who absolutely adore ferrets as pets because they are inquisitive, playful and affectionate. Pictured here is one very spoiled ferret, who prefers sparkling water with lemon while taking a break from strolling the neighborhood on his mini-harness. We recommend a more blue-collar type of ferret for rat hunting purposes. AP Photo/MTI/Gyoergy Nemeth
