Ferrets are illegal in California. As a veterinarian, what are your thoughts on this? Any good reason for the animals or the humans?

Lol wait really? Why? That's so weird. One of my best friends had a ferret named Lady in college, and she brought Lady around everywhere lol. They're so harmless, I can't understand why they'd be illegal?

they’re illegal in california because if they escape, they’re detrimental to the environment and they pose a threat to native wildlife. but california and hawaii are the only states where you cannot legally own a ferret. unfortunately i want a ferret and live in california :(

Wow that is odd, why are they illegal. I never heard of this.

Really? That's so random. I never knew this. What is the reason for them being illegal.

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
