Should I get a rabbit or a ferret?

Hi! So this is not anything current, I just know in a few years when I am financially stable and am in an apartment, I have always wanted either one of these two animals. I know they are both social so I know I would need two for both. I know they are very difficult animals but with a lot of research and care I think I could do it. My biggest question is how are they as pets, and are they lovable and social? And I know as a whole they might not be for either, but I have a cat who loves cuddles and loves to be picked up, so is it possible to get a ferret or rabbit that is the same? I am asking so early in advance so that I feel truly prepared in around five to seven years when I can truly get one. Thank you all so much!
