From Petcentric:
Now we didn't actually sniff around law libraries to find these! We found them in various books and web sites – and it's possible that some of them have been humorously characterized from how the law was actually written! Every city and state has their share of odd laws on their books – we're just bringing you a few that relate to your pets.
