No news is... no news!

Since there are no current legalization efforts in NYC at this time, NYCFerrets.Com is being maintained as an archival site for information on the ban and past legalization efforts.

No More New York City Ferret Meetups


The New York City Ferret Meetups were a good way to meet and network with other ferret lovers in the NYC area. Although there is no longer a NYC based Ferret Meetup, there may still be some in neighboring communities.

Thank You

Thank you to the following companies and individuals for their outstanding support of ferret legalization efforts in New York City.

Lori Malizia for taking the initiative to put up the very first website devoted to the NYC Ferret ban, hosting the website that eventually grew into NYCFerrets.Com free of charge for several years, and other help too numerous to mention, particularly during the first year of the ban.

The Ferret Store http://www.theferretstore.com has done mailings at their own expense to hundreds of NYC ferret owners so that those ferret owners could have the important ferret legalization information that they needed to take action.

Jeanne Carley and The Ferret Company have helped us in so many different ways, with ideas about the original creation of this site, doing a mailing for us at her and Californians for Ferret Legalization expense, providing us with additional sources of information and answering questions for us as we go along. Thank you Jeanne for all your help.

Modern Ferret Magazine www.modernferret.com has supported NYC ferret legalization efforts in numerous ways. They've done mailings at their own expense to NYC ferret owners, sent FREE copies of their magazine to legislators, spoken on behalf of legalization at Public Hearings, made additional legalization information available on their website and more.

FACT Ferret Shelter: Although they have their hands full with fundraising efforts of their own, FACT has sent us several generous donations which have enabled us to get our mailings out to hundreds of ferret supporters in New York City. Visit FACT's website to learn more about the wonderful work that they do.

Gary Kaskel has provided us with copies of many of the official documents contained on this site -which saved us the time of having to track them down for ourselves! Thanks Gary!

Volunteers (many not even from NYC) have been instrumental in helping us with everything from Xeroxing materials at their own expense, to stuffing envelopes, to sending us donations and stamps so we could get important information out to the many New York City ferret owners who are not on line. We could not reach all those NYC ferret owners without you. Thank you for your continued support.

And thank you to everyone who has e-mailed us with so much passion,
concern, and support for this site.
