Albino polecats, also known as ferrets, are small mammals of the Mustelidae family. They have a long, slender body and short legs, and their fur is usually white or cream-colored. They are native to Europe and North America, but have been domesticated and kept as pets in many parts of the world. Ferrets are carnivorous and are often used for hunting small animals such as rabbits and rodents. They are also popular as pets due to their playful and curious nature.
