California just granted the first ever state license for Unicorn Husbandry, provided the young applicant can find one, and ensure it has appropriate exposure to sunlight, moonbeams, and rainbows.

Department of Animal Care and Control added that its horn needed polishing every month with a soft cloth.

"Dear LA County, I would like your approval if I can have a unicorn in my backyard if I can find one," wrote a girl named Madeline.

In response, DACC sent an emblazoned "Permanent Unicorn License," in fuschia-colored metal, alone with a white unicorn plushie with pink hooves and a silver horn.

DACC Director Marcia Mayeda praised Madeline's "sense of responsible pet ownership to seek permission in advance" and for thoughtfully considering "the requirements of providing a loving home to animals."

The agency posted images of the correspondence, the license, the medallion and the stuffed toy on its social media accounts.

The agency added that if the unicorn needed a topical treatment of sparkles and glitter, that they be exclusively non-toxic and biodegradable.
