Mary & Amy's (Howcast)?... How to Massage Your Rabbit? There is an older book I picked up a book called The Relaxed Rabbit: Massage for Your Pet Bunny.. it's ok. There is an article on Reiki for rabbits, it is more of a 'holistic' thing. Here is a video on it. It is even covered in the 'Rabbit Health in the 21st Century: A Guide for Bunny Parents' book. You just need to find the right spots they like. :) edit: Forgot about TTouch... and a long video on it.
There's also a nice book called Radiology of Rodents, Rabbits and Ferrets. :)
Also Training Your Pet Ferret
Best tip is to have a loud squeak toy with a distinctive sound that you use only in emergencies and always reward with ferretone when they come running!
I would highly recommend getting a ferret book.

I read that one cover to cover before getting my ferrets. They eat the most random things (latex, foam, etc) and will try to kill themselves by getting into things they shouldn't get into. We sealed up every nook and cranny in our apartment and put wire grating over the floorboard heaters. Little shits would still manage to get into the entertainment center regardless of the modifications we made. They also busted out of their cage (one knew how to remove twisty ties from the cage door and unlatch the door) and would climb into bed in the middle of the night.
We ended up covering a couple baby gates with clear plastic (because the ferret will climb an unmodified gate really quickly) and using those to block off rooms that we didn't want to ferret proof (Kitchen, bedroom). The rest of the house was EXTREMELY clean and virtually had no clutter.
You'll also want to make a couple extra litter boxes for the ferrets to use when they're outside of their cage.
EDIT: Both of my ferrets died of adrenal gland disease many years ago. They were flipping adorable and the best cuddlers. One bit me the first time I met her, but she bit everyone the first time she met them. I miss them terribly, but they did require quite a bit of babysitting. Cats are a little bit easier to care for, but not nearly as adorable. I know you're only getting one, but you might consider getting two. I think they're happier if they have a friend.
If you're curious about anything from your little guy, I'd recommend this book: https://www.amazon.com/Guide-Owning-Leopard-Gecko-Geckos/dp/079380258X
I had it when I got my first leopard gecko as a kid and it's quite informative and a good read.
This is $5.50 including shipping used :)
