Chances are.. no. And thank goodness for that.
LA has very strict exotic laws in their state and unless you are a certified rescue center or have an OK from probably your local Fish and Wildlife/Game you would not even be able to house one for a center.
It takes far more to take care of an exotic than you think... leave it to the professionals.

I got my two guinea pigs from a pet shop but I did get my cat from an adoption centre he was lovely and so cute his name was bobby but unfortunately we had him for around half a year and then he got hit by a car :( i really support the RSPCA and believe that u should give animals a second chance in life a couple of years ago I raised £80 for the RSPCA!!!! Also I'm getting 2 pet ferrets soon and I will be getting them from a shelter!

It sounds like you want to make a difference in an animal's life. I wouldn't recommend brining an exotic home for various reasons, included the permits mentioned above.
If your desire really is to be around animals and "help" them try a local Zoo (AZA accredited) or nature center and see what kind of volunteer programs they have.
