I want to live in Strata Too ... Woof!

There's a new breed that desperately want to live in strata apartments in increasing numbers these days.  


But they're not empty nesters, or newly weds, or young professionals.  They are the urban dogs and cats of the inner cities.


These dogs and cats are using all kinds of tactics to get into their favourite strata buildings. Sometimes, secretly hiding out in apartments after being smuggled in and out in cars and bags.  And, other times running the gauntlet of getting strata corporation approval before being allowed to move in. It's a strata life full of uncertainty and fear.


Now things are a bit easier with a kit that's been launched by Strata Community Australia and Petcare Information Advisory Service with pro forma application forms and consent conditions.  They can be used by owners and tenants to get approval and by strata corporations to imposes sensible (and fair) conditions on approvals.



You can read more about the initiative here - http://www.stratacommunity.org.au/featured-articles/pets-apply-housing 


It makes an old dog happy to see that things are getting easier for pets in strata buildings.  




Woof ...
