How many ferrets did Queen Elizabeth have?

The picture of Queen Elizabeth with an animal is probably an ermine, circa 1585. Why an ermine? The ermine was prized for its tail, which was pure white with a black tip. According to legend, the ermine would rather die than soil its pure white coat so it came to stand for purity. And as wearing ermine was restricted to royalty and high nobility, it also came to be seen as a status symbol. So I would assume she had a pet, "ferret!"
