Adam, have you ever played with a kitten before? Not the really young ones.. but when they're several months old, they get to the super-frisky stage. The kitten can be lying all innocently next to you, and as soon as you go to stroke it, it wraps it's little paws around your hand, digs it's claws in, kicks at you with it's back legs, and bites your wrist. It's playing. It's a game to them, and they grow out of it in a few more months. I would always let my kittens tear up my hands like that, because even though it hurt, it was kind of fun for me too, it's interaction. If you have two kittens, they'll playfight eachother that way, just the same as they do to your hand.
I've been around several ferrets in my life, and none of them have ever acted even close to as vicious as kittens at play. You've been around one ferret. You can't judge an entire species of animal because of what one ferret did to you. It may make you not want to be around ferrets anymore, and that's fine, it's your life. But don't go saying ferrets should be illegal because of what one ferret did.
For all we know, that ferret was possessed by the undead spirit of Joan Crawford, and thought your ankle was her daughter Christina, so of course she'd have to attack.
Also, Shoelace, I used to have a cat named Tybalt, I named him that because he was mean =D
Tybalt's the perfect name for a cat though:
