Oh boy do I know about this one! We were recently with American Family. When my husband and I looked at upping our renters insureance, the agent said we'd be denied coverage. Why? Ferrets. Why? Don't know. We eventually found out that the ferrets exclusion was made I believe April '02. So begins the search for new insurance. The agent we were then attempting to work through has access to a number of different companies. Most of them excluded ferrets, because they're RODENTS. We offered to send them information from various zooligical sites stating that they are not members of the rodentia family. But, to no avail. State Farm asked only if we had dogs. Nope. No dogs, at least not yet! Meridian, I think, also allowed ferrets. Good luck! Assinine, isn't it? Dooks and Dances Denise Autry Alpha Phi Omega, Alumni ICQ# 1155674 [Posted in FML issue 4083]
