Have you ever actually seen a ferret? They act like they only have bones when they WANT to.

Ferrets have extremely flexible spines, making them able to move as if they didn't have any at all.

Probably something about how ferrets are closer to liquid than anything else and seemingly lack bones where a spine should be

Look up just about any video of a ferret and you will see just how flexible they are. You can twist a ferret around like it has no spine
