Isis is growing up I see...
She must have one hell of a nose if she can catch rats deaf.

Ferrets rely on smell 1000 times more than any other sense. Their head is basically one big nose with fangs.
Their ears, on the other hand, are very basic and not as important to their species as taste/smell is. Deafness is much more common in Ferrets than other species, being a burrowing animal, and most especially with the white ones and albinos.
I stomp my foot on the floor and she comes running to me and attacks my toes.
...we have learned to work with her being deaf..it is sad though. She will have a good life with me.
