<<First Name>> <<Last Name>> <<Custom1>> <<Custom2>> Happy Easter! The Ferret PAC is Born, Just in Time for National Ferret Day



A Political Action Committee is a Committee that is formed to raise money for political purposes; support or oppose candidates, push legislation, etc. We're in this game, we want to find candidates for the California legislature that will actually talk to us.



Our goals are pretty modest. I'd like to crowd fund $3000 in hopes of finding 10 candidates that we can bribe donate $250 to who will then support us. The other $500 is for expenses; postage, letter head, etc.



My goal, and I might not make the deadline, is to have the crowdfunding page up on April 2nd, National Ferret Day. You knew that! If you need a full size version of the above graphic, please click here One Ferret Got Kicked Out of Church

Baku is a support animal for Amanda B in Santa Clarita. Of course the state of California isn't going to issue anything official to a ferret (except, of course a "get out of California" order) but Baku comes with a letter from a therapist, which does open a few doors.



But not to the door of Amanda's Church - where Amanda sings in the, or used to sing in the chior. Another choir member works for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Not exactly doing the Lord's work. We mention this as another example of a ferret ban, having no basis in science or policy, hurts good people. How we would all love to take our ferrets out.



I wonder if Baku would be allowed in when the Blessings of the Animals comes around. And Another Ferret Needs Ear Surgery Sparky here is a 2 year old ferret and has a cancerous tumor in his ear. The procedure to to remove it is called an ablation. This request comes with a bill from Noble Veterinary Clinic in Hayward for $400 for the procedure.



The Golden State Ferret Society, which is fostering Sparky would appreciate any help, Please use this link and mark it for Sparky.



Next week we will send the funds raised for Sparky and names and email addresses of donors off to the Golden State Ferret Society. If we get more than $400 we'll donate it to the Ferrets Anonymous Angel Fund for the next emergency.

2017 Legalize Ferrets Calendar Theme - Ferrets In the Movies! In the 2017 Legalize Ferrets calendar we're going to feature a movie each month where ferrets were featured in a way that helped popularize them as pets. Obviously "Beastmaster" and "Kintergarden Cop" are 1 and 2. But what about 3 through 12? Send in your suggestions. I'll put up a webpage shortly with the submissions.



The Golden State Ferret Society is hosting a camara shoot April 5th for a test run. No one has ever done a test run. My advice to any photographer, it is like ripping a bandaid off - just do it! Total chaos! Photographing ferrets isn't easy!
