Generally you must keep ferrets separated from any member of the rodent family - there are exceptions. one must remember that ferrets are obligated carnivores. Their main natural diet is rodents - they were used for many centuries to control pests - rats and mice.

I have one ferret that hunts dogs and yes, he tries to go for the back of the neck of the Yorkshires. He exhibits all the natural hunting talents of a small Weasel. I have another small female ferret that is quite old who would be fine with a guinea pig under supervision.
