A ferret is of the family Mustela, or weasel. The scientific name for the ferret is Mustela putorius furo, or weasel-like stinky thief. Weasels and their cousins prey on small rodents so the likelyhood of a ferret attracting a mouse of any other rodent is nil. In fact having a ferret in your residence would deter any rodent from entering.
