What animals are legal or illegal for pets in PA?

I am not looking to get a pet right now, as my living situation (rent controlled apartment) doesn't allow for any. However, when I finally do move-latest is May 2011, I would like to know what kinds of pets are allowed in PA. Granted, I love dogs, some cats, rats, and even ferrets, but I want to be one of those brave few that takes care of an uncommon pet CORRECTLY!.
