| What I've heard, and what I assume is that no one will bother someone with more animals than the limit, as long as the animals are clean, quiet, and well taken care of. I think animal control has enough issues without having to take away people's precious pets.

I can understand if my babies were barking all night long, tearing up her lawn, running freely, or being obnoxious, but that is not the case. I'm actually the only dog owner in my area that actually picks up after their dogs on walks that I've seen in my 4 months of living here. I'm enrolling all 4 in obedience classes 2 at a time as well, that way I have another asset on my side if there becomes a problem. If I can show that my dogs are well behaved and well trained doggie "citizens" I think she would have less ammunition if she really tried to do something about my dogs. I'm just so heartbroken over this and nothing has happened yet. I hate that people that love their animals have to sit around and worry about a ridiculous law that in my opinion doesn't really help overpopulation one bit . | |

| We have a 3-pet limit which includes birds and fish too! BUT my neighbor has had up to 63 cats in a 5 room house and no one has ever complained about her. I think they only enforce the law if neighbors complain. She keeps three cats registered at all time (She is down to 13 cats right now.) I she is ever asked she simply says that she babysits cats for her friends and several of her friends are out of town at the moment. I wouldn't worry if I were you. But if you do end up having to get rid of one send it my way! LOL Good Luck! |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | We have a neighbor who is across the alley and a few doors down who works for the city government. This has given them "license" to set loose a herd of cats. (Two or three that they keep and litters of kittens each year. At one point, they had eight or nine of them -- ALL RUNNING LOOSE.) Right now, I think they're at three but the annual kittens can't be far off. They had a dog which kept getting loose (poor thing) and it finally ran away. So they got ANOTHER one and that sucker barks ALL THE TIME. I've been outside a lot lately taking time off with all the house projects, and that dog does not come up for air. They won't do anything because the employer card will get played. Just doesn't seem right that you have to worry so about keeping your well-behaved babies when there are others who can just do whatever they want. |

| bushes Do the dad thing, and plant bushes for privacy. I cannot tolerate busy bodies. Be sweet and friendly to all your neighbors and stick with the dad story; then forget -- if you stress too much you can make yourself sick! |

| That's what worries me the most of all, that she "could" complain, and might just beacause her ex son in law is a police officer. It's not like I have a ton of dogs . I've made a few phone calls looking to see about specialty licenses or ways "around" the law, so I'm really trying here. |
