Being burrow dwellers they evolved to sleep very deeply because they didn't need to have hair trigger escape responses when they were safe at home. That means that you can pick them up and they don't wake up and in fact they are often so limp that they look dead. I know neofite ferret owners who have been scared out of their wits thinking that they are dead.
Anyway, they make good lap warmers when they are asleep. You can also dress them up in silly clothes and take their photos while they sleep if that entertains you.
Their tails smell like grape soda. Weirdest thing.
