Hi everyone! I just found out that a bill to do away with the ferret license in New York State was signed by Governor Pataki on August 25th. I called the special licensing unit (518-457-0689) to verify this. We don't need licenses anymore! It apparently does not change the classification of ferrets, only removes the licensing requirement. So it doesn't do anything for New York City. Mary & the Slinky Seven Mary R.
