Since the death of both my mother and of the assembly bill for legalizing ferrets and other factors considered, I do not think that California is the place to be anymore. I was born and raised here, but this state and its insane politics are crushing my spirit. Thus I am seeking to move to Texas, somewhere near Houston or even between Austin and Houston. Trouble is, I need to find a place where I can keep animals and harder yet, I can't afford to buy a house, so I must rent. Any leads on affordable rental housing in that area would be appreciated. Hopefully a place with a large back yard, possibly horse property or a kennel or small farm? My hopes are for starting a rescue/shelter for small exotics. -- Jazmyn Concolor - [log in to unmask] National Alternative Pet Association P.O.Box 1688, El Cajon.
