I hope some other student brings a “service” pit bull who devours the stupid guinea pig in one bite. Sheesh. There is no longer any place where pets are prohibited, since the ADA lets anyone get around the restriction. We live in a “no pets” high-rise condo, but still have “comfort” dogs and cats — none of them serving the traditional purposes of a service animal (i.e., for the blind, or to warn of seizures, etc.) — all here because of a doctor’s Rx that the person needs the animal for comfort. I’m waiting for the first person who needs a comfort pony.
i’ve been seeing more and more of this “life-necessary comfort animal” nonsense. Somedays I really think we’ve gone way too far as a culture...to a nation of sissies and crybabies.
