Yes. It's origin is in the 1700s, back in the days before mechanical forms of transport when ferrets were employed in the delivery of mail. It was discontinued around 1874 when it was discovered that a notorious family of miscreants from the town of Whitby, Yorkshire were intercepting the post-rodents and using them for bizarre sexual purposes, a practice that some believe still continues to this day.
I do love stereotypes ! Went to Sheffield last week and i saw a bloke with his whippet. Also saw one of those ferretts in the harness, did look very happy, they can get very tame

Actually I was referring to the Bell family and their infamous ambassador to WoS. One person doesn't constitute a stereotype, does it? :lol:
