    A ferret would be good. They are playful loving and get along with dogs that don’t want to eat them.

    rabbits are very good pets to have and most are fun and playful

    If “weenie dog” means Dachshund, then you might want to consider that they were bred to go underground and hunt rodent and other “varmits”. So that cute little bunny may look like something to chase.

    I think chinchillas are about the only exotic animal that you can legally own in Cali.
    No ferrets, no sugar gliders, no pit bulls… I’m surprised they allow fish.

    FERRET.

    i have 16 of them and they all play with my cats and dogs and hedgehogs.

    and despite what you may have heard if you care for your ferret properly it doesnt stick and it can be liter box trained like a cat

    Hi Damian… .Aside from owning Bengal Cats which is legal and closest to being an exotic, the state of California has the most strict guidelines in having an exotic animals as pets:

    The state of California states that no one legally possess a any exotic animal as a pet even if they are purchased from a USDA breeder or even with a permit.

    Californians cannot even have a pet gerbils! California legislators stated that should the rodents escape or be released that they may begin breeding. The climate of Southern California is similar to the desert habitat of gerbils. Already there are breeding colonies of feral gerbils in California that could impact the environment and harm native species. This essentially is what they are saying that any exotic pets in the state if they accidentally escape will destroy native wildlife and habitat.

    California is, if you are an exotic animal collector, probably the worst place to live if you want to have one of these animals as pets.
