? 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.
The dark markings are considered a sable pattern.
Aah apparently its more of a UK thing to call them polecats or poleys rather than sable
