They are OK to run around the house, but it will have to be ferret proofed. They can get into really small spaces and will eat anything they find. A swallowed eraser from the top of a pencil equals expensive bowel surgery or a new ferret.
They are more personable than the rodents and pretty easy to care for. Let me know if you have any more questions about ferrets.
I've had hamsters, guinea pigs and mice. My cousin has had rats and said they are fun to raise.
