NIMBY

So I called the town health department today, out of curiosity:

"I have a strange question — I've been looking on the town website and I see licensing requirements for dogs and cats, but nothing for other animals. Specifically, I'm wondering about getting a miniature pig."

"Um...not in Belmont."

"I see. What can you have in Belmont?"

"Just chickens."

"Huh. Well, thank you."

Well. There goes that idea.

You can join the backyard chicken trend! My dad claims he wants to. And there was just a NYTimes article about it.

Didn't I tell you that you could have chickens? Personally, I still want that goat...

That settles it. You're just going to have to move. ;)

How about the teacup pig but you FEED him chicken food? Frankly, that would make you over the top cool if you had a pig. Although, I would hate to pick up pig poop.
