In your first weeks as a pet parent, you should familiarize yourself with your city’s animal ordinances, including leash, licensing, and vaccination requirements.
Many cities limit the number of animals allowed in a single household.
It's also a good idea to familiarize yourself with other pet-related ordinances (like impounded animals, barking and noise complaints, and accumulation of feces in the yard).
