It would make no difference if I were to write a congressperson or your Govt. because I AM Canadian, but I thought I just might drop Mayor Ruddy a line on the website. I am sorry I could not keep my "attitude" out of the message but I did try not to rant. Have you read what a "Dr. Cohen" has said about these little guys? You can see it in NYC Tourism, Health Dept. I would encourage everyone not living in NYC to drop a line to tell them you cannot spend tourism dollars in that City. >Thank you for publishing your misinformation about ferrets. > >We have cancelled our plans to include New York City in our vacation >this year. > >I am sorry I did not realize the ban on Ferrets in your city and have >vacationed along with my ferrets, spent money as a tourist, bought food >and toys for the ferrets and recommended NYC as a great place to visit. > >We will not be in your city again, nor will I recommend it to anyone and >will point out how misinformed you are about ferrets. > >If you cannot do your homework about a small domestic animal I question >running a major City. > >Lynda Galloway >St. Catharines, Ontario Canada Winnings will benefit ADV research and shelter ferrets.
