Innocent plea in cruelty case

June 27, 2006
Herald Staff

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — A 37-year-old Wilder woman pleaded innocent this week to one count of animal cruelty.

Michelle L. Greene was arraigned in White River Junction District Court this week on charges filed by the Hartford Police Department following a raid at her home on April 21.

Police allege Greene deprived her animals of adequate food, water and shelter. A ferret had to be euthanized because of its poor condition, court records revealed.

Police affidavits stated dogs, cats, birds and the ferret were taken to the Upper Valley Humane Society.

SAN DIEGO, CA (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- California ferret enthusiasts launched a new website in the latest attempt to legalize ferrets in California, one of only two states where they remain illegal. The new website for California Legalization Initiative for Ferrets is www.legalizeferrets.org.

The website is designed to measure if there is enough support in California among the unknown number of ferret owners and others to mount such an ambitious effort as a ballot initiative.

NN Petco worker outraged over theft of ferret by couple

Police are on the lookout for a man and woman who walked out of the store with the furry creature in a purse.

The young couple was acting squirrelly enough that a Petco employee was reluctant to leave them holding a ferret while she helped another customer. Sure enough, when she came back, the couple was gone, and so was the ferret, she said.

Now police are looking for the pair, a man and woman in their early 20s, who are suspected of stealing the ferret from the Jefferson Avenue pet store on Saturday morning.

The detective investigating the theft has come to a dead end, and police are asking for the public's help.

Political Notes — Ferrets have their own bill
Published on March 24, 2006

You read that right. Legislation specifically designed to protect ferrets -- mustela putorius furo. Sounds a little hokey for the 188-member Maryland General Assembly to be tackling, doesn't it?

Well, controversial bills come in all forms, and this one has been around since 2002.

Over the last week, it's caused some snickers among the more cynical members of the State House press corps (that's all of us), and among some legislators who believe state government should be finding better things to do with its time.

New Ogden Law Limits Number of Pets

March 16th, 2006 @ 4:03pm

You can still love dogs in Ogden, you just can't own more than two of them. A new city animal ordinance restricts the number of pets you can own and some people aren't happy with the new laws.

It's a law that was passed with some controversy this week. Now you can't have more than six animals in your house, which means dogs, cats, or ferrets. In fact, you can't have more than two dogs or two ferrets, the new animal that's now legal in Ogden.
