For example the Oldies like to take things slow, just eat their soup and then either waddle around a bit or find a place to chill. Compared to them, the Babies (younger ferrets) are extremely active and quickly overshadow the chill atmosphere the oldies prefer. There also could be different reasons for seperating the ferrets into a group, like one of the ferrets of a group (they joined the rescue with) is overly aggressive towards other ferrets not of their group. Then the decision could be made to give this group a seperate playtime.

With the exception of [[Ferrets/Ghost|Ghost]] (due to behavioural issues), being put into a playgroup does not mean they will never interact with ferrets from other playgroups.
