Personally, I do not have an owl. No, it is not illegal to have them as pets, but you must have a special license. It is illegal to have one without a lisence. I do not know how to get the license, sorry. Also, it would be very expensive to feed them... One of my friends saved up for a year and then bought a pet mouse. If you brought an owl to his house, gone in two shakes of an owl's tail! :) If you do like owls a lot but are not willing to spend all that time and money, you can get an owl nesting box and put it into your backyard, if you live around owls. You can buy one online or make one yourself out of wood (not sure how though). Owl nesting boxes are like homes for owls, but they are a plus for the owls don't have to make them! With nesting boxes you can watch owls without having to take care of them. I may have gone astray from the question a bit, but I hope this helps! GO OWLS

In the U.S IT IS ILLEGAL to keep an Owl as a Pet, you can not have it as a pet. you can have one in your home if you have a license you can keep it ONLY if it is part of rehabilitation or you work with a wild life preserve company or zoo and is at your house for an indefinite but not permanent amount of time.

Did you raise Soren from an owlet or was he injured and you adopted him? He is a beautiful owl!!

No, I don't have an owl as a pet and I'm not sure about the legal part of having one. I've seen documentaries about wildlife vets caring for ones who have been hit by cars, shot or poisoned.
