Will you be going to the funeral?:shock:

 

[slither]

i wouldnt know the details i never new her

 

[spilota_variegata]

snake bite???

 

[slither]

no she died of a heart attack so ive heard

 

[spilota_variegata]

snake fright

A snake bit her in her sleep.

I live in a Strata run building too and I hope I dont get in this situation. Body corporate states that no pets allowed unless voted by the executive committee

All you have to do it flash your license say I have the right to keep your PETS.
State:
They are not wild caught. Hand raised from birth
Flash your license.
Tell them the requirements for keep these pets require conditions from NPWS. Start blabbing about professional built cages with heavy duty locks. Say every year an officer comes to your premises to check on your arrangements. Also add that if not satisfactory then they will take away your license and THEY (having the power) will confiscate your pets.

I think its a matter of misunderstanding REPTILES and their ignorance towards them. You will need to try to ease there mind.

Shoot a line by saying I am a reptile rescue Samaritan that you help rear sick snakes back to health that have been neglected.

Say you would love to have a pet dog and add by saying in an apartment dogs bark and defecate 2-3 times a day they urinate everywhere thats why you need a proper backyard. Snakes on the other hand----quiet they dont move much they defecate onces every 2months or so harmless and does not leave its cages unless cleaning.

Adding to that. As an owner they cannot force into you place you own it, it is not common property.

Thats my 2 cent worth

Hope that helps

To most realestate agents snakes are in the same category as fish, as they are enclosed. And no one expects fish to go on a lease as pets.

After all you dont have anything venemous or dangerous. I believe you have a leg to stand on if you want to challenge them.
Good luck
And if i were her i would be more fearful of someone breaking in and robbing me than some snakes in enclosures. Some old people just love to complain about complaining.

 

[bitey]

i hope that when you go to the body corporate on monday you enter a room full of fellow herpers because that would devestate me if someone told me that i had to get rid of my pets. good luck mate

 

[yommy]

no she died of a heart attack so ive heard

you didn't slip one under the door did you

sad someone died but atleast you shouldn't have anymore complaints.
I'd get onto the body corporate board now and change some of the rules.

 

[slither]

yeah its not funny at all but i just found it a little ironic i guess karma came back to her i was even invited over to the house by her husband for a bbq and drinks but so was the rest of the complex lol im thinking even the body corp comitte dont care to much as they havent called or fallowed up or anything sinse they asked me to get rid of them no time limit no mention of an inspection or anything

 

[MoreliaMatt]

good to hear mate!

 

[Aslan]

Yeah, good to hear it has worked out alright...

 

[slither]

hey guys well havent posted ina while but another complaint was made about my keeping of snakes so after weeks and weeks of back and forth letters and phone calls i agreed to an ispection a mate of mine was kind enough to keep all my lager snakes for a as long as i need so i bagged all the smaller ones up for the inspection the went through my entire house saw that it was clear and said thats it so im happy now just cant risk any more complaints
