You will find info and mentions of references on this if you look in the Natural History section at

and if you search in
http://listserv.cuny.edu/archives/ferret-search.html (also look under "Bob" or "Bob C" in the from line.

There may also be some info in the FHL Archives at http://fhl.sonic-weasel.org.

Searching in a general search engine for ferrets+ history or ferrets + "art history" can also bring up some very useful old art works, and mentions of texts such as Pliny's mentions of domestic ferrets.
