Play, pursuit and capture
A playful ferret
The encounter can evoke enjoying discovery without having to reach a conclusion. Consider what you have been taking so seriously that there is little room left for experimentation.
A ferret chases or threatens you
An energetic animal can feel overwhelming when you cannot choose how close it comes. Think about whether an issue has started demanding more attention than you are ready to give it.
You catch a ferret
The capture can bring questions about trust or control into view. Recall whether you wanted to understand the ferret, protect yourself from it or simply stop its movement.
