Post by: Kobuk on August 28, 2022, 10:08:22 am

Saw this on the news.  :o

I'm fine with people having dogs and cats as emotional support animals. But something like an alligator or other "wild, dangerous, and exotic" animal, HELL NO!  >:( What the hell was this guy thinking? Sometimes, I think people go a little too far bending or breaking the rules in trying to have whatever animal they want for emotional support. The police and/or animal control should have been called in this case. The animal confiscated and the man fined.

I have nothing against scalies in furry.
But my idea of emotional support animal would be a mammal.
No gators please!

I think an emotional support grizzly would be cool!

What of a Ball Python?
They're calm, not crazy.

Actually that is a good idea Firelight!
I guess I just  think of dogs and cats as emotional support animals.
But still no gators for me!

I miss my motivational support fox, Dirk. He gave me another reason to hit the rail trail on my bike.
