If the ferrets and neutered or spayed it should be an issue to have them in California. They neutered and spayed the Ferrets before selling them at the pet store. I would like to move back home to be closer to my families grave but I refuse to leave my ferrets behind. I can't even go to California to visit because this ridiculous law

The illegalization of ferrets is irrational and shows the lack of research done on ferrets. Not only have they been domesticated for 2500 years, they are highly intelligent animals trained in Europe to control disease spreading pests. Since the Black Footed Ferret, before near extinction, was native to some parts of California, it is obvious that even if ferrets could survive without people they are no threat to anything other than mice and rats. On top of that, if California wants to claim that they are dangerous they should consider making dogs illegal because dog kill hundreds of people. Ferrets don't kill people, and only bite when they are treated poorly.

I've always wanted a ferret, but it's not allowed in California for moronic reasons. Obviously if other states have ferrets allowed it can't be that dangerous to own a fun, cuddly and loving creature. They let us have chînchillas when those are "exotic" as well. Why sell ferret food in stores in California if you cannot have them. Seriously <\3

If Ferrets are legalized in California it will allow the people that already have them to get the vet care they need and would stop the dumping of unwanted pets because we could form legal rescues.

I have always planned to move to California once I'm done with school, but this contradicts with my age-old wish to own a ferret.

My ferret, when I lived in Louisiana, was kindest, cuddliest, & smartest animal I ever met, to other ferrets, humans, & animals, like cats. I can cry when I think of my longing to own one here in CA! Plz inform me on this petition ONLY.

I owned a ferret in the past and she was the of pinnacle of joy.
My father passed away when I was young. Seeing his health decline and witnessing his death made my my life emotionally unbearable. Soon after, I was diagnosed with clinical depression. After months of sadness, I got Mocha and she was the sunshine I desperately needed in my life. This ferret brought me joy and happiness. She was the definition of a perfect ferret. She was gentle around my toddler aged nieces and nephews; never biting or scratching. Instead, she would steal the socks they wear wearing. That said, ferrets are totally dependent on their owners. They lost many innate instincts due to over 2000 years of selective breading. In this manner, they will not survive if introduced to the wild. They will not change or harm the California ecosystem. I know this petition is old, but let's reintroduce the legalization of ferrets!
