I recently called the State House in MA to check on the status of the Ferret Laws in MA. They are completely illegal unless they are going to be used for educational purposes. The bill to repeal the law that bans ferrets is currently in the House Ways and Means Committee and if it does not make it through to the floor before Jan 1 then it will have to begin the entire legislative process once again - It has been pushed aside for a number of years (3 I think but I'm not sure) The Chairman of the committee is Finneran and it was suggested to me that if I was interested in helping it along...... My plea to all of you would be if you had a second to send off a note to the following. Chairman Thomas Finneran House Ways and Means Committee State House - Room 243 Boston, MA 02133 (617) 722-2700 Maybe if we flood his office it will make him at least think of it. The response I got from one of the aids was that they were bills that were much more important to think about and that this bill was insignificant as far as the legislators were concerned :o( Thanks PeggySue In desperate need of my fuzzies who are currently in foster care in CT.
