Hi all, Many months ago I posted asking about taking ferrets covertly into CA. It seems I am definitely moving to the LA area in the near future and I have no intent of leaving my two fuzzy family members behind. From the responses I got last time, I decided that the best way to go is to drive. The only potential problem was the agricultural stations on the state borders. How thorough are these stations? If I throw some blankets over their car cage, is that enough? Are there any areas in Southern CA that don't have these checkpoint stations? Also, can anyone recommend a really good ferret vet in the San Fernando Valley area? The STAR*Ferrets list has _so many_ vets it's hard to even believe that they're still illegal. :-) I want the best of care for my two runts. Thanks for any help you can offer.
