I just discovered that ferrets are illegal in my town. This was caused by the law regulating pets being passed many years ago when most people had never heard of our fuzz kids. The law says that all animals are illegal as pets and then specifically excludes animals like cats, dogs, and the like. I have some influence with my town council and I want them to change the law. However, I also want to have the facts to back up my request. Can anybody tell me if Pennsylvania law defines our fur butts as domestic pets? Can any body tell me where Pennsylvania indicates that ferrets are to be treated the same as cats and dogs for purposes of the rabies quarantine? Any help would be appreciated so neither I or my six go to jail. Dale [Posted in FML issue 2736]
