Hello, I have been a "lurker" here for a long time. I have learned a lot about ferrets but have never had the pleasure or opportunity to own one (or be owned by one). I am moving to White Plains, NY and am wondering if there is anyone on this list that is familiar with the area. I am specifically looking for info on the local laws regarding ferrets, as well as local ferret clubs, vets and especially shelters. I hope to adopt a young ferret from a shelter (or another owner) rather than getting one from a pet store. It would also be nice to connect with other local ferret lovers for advice and help if I ever need it in the future. If anyone has any contact info I'd appreciate it. Please e-mail me at: [log in to unmask] with the word FERRET in the subject. Thanks for your time, Joe [Posted in FML issue 4514]
