I have had ferrets since 1980....they have not been illegal in New York State in that time & probably before that....they did have to be licensed up until last year when that silly law was finally taken off the books. am I correct in asuming that this Jane person, who said such negative things about ferrets is a member of PETA, or is just affilated with the maginzine??? I support PETA but if this is the way they think I will have RE-THINK my feelings towards this organization... Linda Kiss your Ferrets everyday!!!! [Posted in FML issue 2450]
