California questions

[Chilli]

All I know is that Quakers are illegal there.. and last time I heard, Ferrets were still illegal there, also. Two reasons why I'll never move to CA! =D

Maybe some fellow PTers from CA can be of more help than I am. =]

A one bedroom apartment will cost you $900 a month or more.

Ferrets, Gerbils, marsupials, Quakers, a lot of pets are illegal here. What pets do you own?

It would be lovely to have another PTer nearby!

The bay is a fabulous place to live, but it costs lots of $$$. Like Cathy mentioned, renting a simple one-bedroom apartment over here can empty your wallet in no time. That said, it's incredibly diverse and I love it. Simply said, if you're looking for something, chances are we'll have it. What's great about the bay is that it's centered heavily around the major cities; yet, in places like Martinez and parts of Livermore, you can buy a large house with acreage or even a farm (although it'll cost you).

But yes, many pets are illegal over here. The only one that I know of for *certain* is the Quaker. If you're a dog/cat type of person, though, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place to live than the bay. Of course, I'm not biased

I dunno about the wolf/dog hybrids. My friend's cousin has a GSD/wolf and she's licensed and everything. It could very well be illegal, but there's no definitive way to pin you down so I guess you could slide on that. I'm not endorsing anything though!

Cathy, I'll PM you. As a matter of fact, Cindy (Taz_Zoee) and I just met yesterday. I'm on my way to make a thread in the Meetings section, too

[xVelvet_FuzzButtx]

is she positive its actually part wolf(ie seen the parents)?
I know quite a few that are passed off as wolves or wolf hybrids.

they are illegal accourding to the fish and game site and California code of regulations, title 14, Section 671. ofcourse I don't live in CA so i'm just going by that.
