[Lola LaRue]

I just did some research on this law and I had no idea that this was such an issue for people. Apparently there is a movement of ferret lovers to have them as pets here in California. I love all animals and I would never want to ban any animal that was not dangerous to people or the environment. I read several articles debating the ownership of ferrets and I am not sure what to believe. All I know is, there is no reason to introduce something into this environment that may harm it.
I have only been around one in my life. A neighbor, in college had one. That ferret escaped several times. He was smelly and quite frankly a little scary.
California has this law in place whether for appropriate or inappropriate reasons. I am sure that if enough people wanted to make it legal, there would be something done about it. I guess it is a non issue to most of us. As it stands, it is illegal to own one and I think that people should abide by the law.
You are lucky you don't live in California. I am sure there are a lot of laws, that you would disagree with, but the voters here have their own opinions.
