It's not going to get passed. It probably won't even get looked at.
They've been trying to do this for decades.

Try not to worry, love.
That's what I'm doing. =)

ive seen it come up 2 or 3 times in the last 14-16 months.

but never saw it get this close, i would hate to see it pass because people didnt understand what the bill was

I know, but that's what politicians are banking on. They're praying that people will stay ignorant and oblivious. Unfortunately for them, that's not how animal lovers work.
I'm not criticizing you for making a post. I hope you don't think that.
I'm just hoping you won't worry your pretty little head too much.
No one can take your babies away.

And even if the bill passes, it's not like they're gonna go to every individual house and check.
Just hide them! ;)

i guess what i fear most is this is a very wide bill, if the reptile community doesnt speak up, congress will think they can walk on us, and will remove animal by animal from the pet trade.

So in truth im not worried about this bill, i see it as a way to prove that animal lovers will not go silently into the night.

I'm not certain what city you live in, but municipal laws are all over the place, and some of them can be pretty bad. The three cities below are good examples of that ( ... )

Ignore all that above if you've already looked into local laws. I think it's just that I had a couple snakes for a couple of years before realizing they were potentially covered by local laws like that.

ive looking into local cleveland laws and i know what i can and cant have, im also ok with flat out breaking some of the laws.

I feel some of these animals are in better care in my hands then selling them to the first buyer outside of cleveland.

No that isn't what made me laugh.

I don't understand animal lovers that eat meat. Its such an oxymoron.

hope you send out your emails and make your calls to make sure in the future you could get another one if you wanted it or just to protect the one you have now.
