I strongly suggest EVERYONE in this state (or surrounding states, for that matter) contact their local rep to express your feelings on this. This is how BSL started with dogs and it is spreading like wildfire, as most people think 'it is not my state/city', but each day, more and more are losing their right to have their pets every day. Do not sit idle on this before it is too late to act. Find out who your local state rep is if you don't know already and tell him you do not support this.

Holly, go to the Sun's homepage: www.baltimoresun.com and do a search for "iguana" as the title of the article is 'City takes aim at your iguana' (published on 2/6/07). I used to live in Pasadena, and then in Glen Burnie real close to Pasadena, but moved back to IN 2 years ago next month... My brother recently got a new pit in MI and they have to have special permits and insurance, and that stuff can only be had if the parents have the same thing and have passed the counties temperment testing and all this other stuff, but pits are his breed of choice, so he goes through it all to get his new baby

Come on everyone...let's unite to fight this. They are taking public opinion on the planned changes, including the banning of sugar gliders, until March 2nd. Please, as the article says, contact Assistant Commissioner Olivia Farrow and voice your concerns!!

I definitely understand where the city is coming from in drafting this legislation but I think it's very easy to agree with parts of the document and not the whole thing. Also, the only animals you can get permits on are chickens, pigeons, and pot-bellied pigs. Unless I missed something under the proposed regulations sugar gliders are all out banned...no permits. Here is what I wrote:
Dear Assistant Commissioner Farrow,
I took a look at the proposed regulations on exotic and farm animals and am not happy. I think that the reasoning behind the regulations is sound; I don't think the average person should own such hard to keep large zoo animals as bears and kangaroos and I don't think livestock should be kept in tight city conditions. But some of the animals being banned are not a nuisance to anyone. Sugar gliders, for instance, have found their way into many homes and are spoiled members of countless American families. I myself am the proud owner of two such sweet creatures. I'm also concerned with the banning of "large rodents". What does this include? Rats? Chinchillas? These are also common and loved pets in many homes today. Many of the people who own small breed exotics are hobbyists who are very well educated on the breeds and have them in nothing but the best of living conditions. If these animals are suddenly banned, what happens to those already living in Baltimore homes? I can understand the licensing of the more uncommon pets, but sudden outright banning of happily adjusted family pets is absurd.
Thanks for your time

Alot of things aren't on the news in williamsport being considered the lil' philly. The general populous only knows about a handful of shootings in the last year.Just two weeks ago there was two in a day that no one knew about. They go on little spurts here and they are usually drug related. It's sad. But my point is the news won't always put them in.I agree with holly.
