On Wednesday, May 31, on CBS This Morning, they featured a story concerning
the California ferret law.  At first it seemed that they were going to be
friendly to ferrets, showing Pat Wright and the Ferret Underground.  Then
they brought out a little girl who had been attacked by a ferret when she
was 29 months old.  They also talked to Rachel Lamb of the Humane Society of
the U.S.  who stated that it was their policy to discourage ferrets as pets.
They supported the ferret ban in California and wanted to see similar bans
in all states!

Thanks for letting me take up so much space, but I think this is
important to us all.
