Hi Gabriela! Unfortunately, ferret ownership is very illegal in California. There are several on-going efforts, and have been for a number of years to make ferret ownership in the state of California legal. As it stands right now, ferret ownership is is STRICTLY prohibited. I would sugget you contact one of the California domestic ferret organizations for further information. There are MANY wonderful people in California helping to wage this battle. Let them know that you support their efforts and get involved. This is the only way that legistators and California officials will know how the residents of their great state feel. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Let me know if there is anything I can help with. Best of luck to those in California in their on-going efforts. Please try to contact the California Domestic Ferret Association here on the fml at: [log in to unmask] Mary Peoria Area Ferret Connection P.O.
