How can you tell if a ferret is playing with or attacking you?
When playing, ferrets may may make a slight clucking noise, often referred to as 'dooking'. They may also have their bark acrhed and be jumping around, sometimes performing a weasel war dance. The war dance usually follows play or the successful capture of a toy or a stolen object. It consists of a frenzied series of sideways and backwards hops, often accompanied by an arched back, dooking or hissing noises, and a frizzy tail. Ferrets rarely attack, and when frightened, may latch on your hand or another piece of skin AND WILL NOT LET GO. Usually this will draw blood. To escape this, you can grab a ferrets scruff [ loose hair on top of the neck ] and draw slightly backwards, careful not to harm your fuzzy.

For honey that refuses to turn back into syrup, microwave it on Medium Low for 20-30 seconds at a time, till it feels like a cup of hot tea.
Take it out and stir, breaking up the little chunks as much as possible. (I use chopsticks to reach in there.) If the syrup is too thick, add a little bit of water (about 1 teaspoonful at a time.)
It took me about half an hour, but I was able to change about 98% of the crystalized honey back to syrup doing it this way.
