Hi Ferret Lovers this is Tiki...Heather's mother. I have been thinking about the unfair way ferrets are treated in California and trying to think of something that would maybe help in letting the public know what adorable, harmless creatures these fuzzys are. It occurred to me that (if no one else has already tried this) perhaps someone could talk to a few Hollywood Personalities. If Hollywood got on the bandwagon, it would get a lot of exposure and they (movie stars) usually campaign rather hard for the issues they believe in. It may not work, but it is simply a thought. If not the personalities themselves...perhaps thier children! Parents tend to listen to thier children's desires these days! Like I said, maybe someone has already tried this, but if not, it is worth a try. My sympathies are with all of you out there in CaCa land. Tiki [Posted in FML issue 2200]
