It's not practical for me to currently have one of these for mundane reasons, but I've been interested for a time.

Dogs have "barking". Cats have "purring". But you gotta love a critter that makes a noise officially called "dooking". And when they want to play, they bounce around doing what's called the "weasel war dance". I'd like to know who came up with these names.

From what I've heard about their nature and behavior, I think I'd like these guys.

Anyone here have one? Got any stories or descriptions to share? Pictures?


(Hmm ... I have a slightly modified picture that I really like of a bunch of them on my profile page, but when I try to link it here, it displays my avatar instead.)
