Rasco:OT The headline and first two paragraphs of the article were somewhat deceptive. Yes, the quarantine regulation is being 'scrapped' but not until April 2001. For those of us on the rabies ridden side of the pond, who knows how long it will take until our pets can join us during extended periods in the U.K. I showed my pet the article and he used the mouse to highlight this section: >... this enforced separation often > has been a serious hardship for pets used to the attention of loving owners. > Many animals have pined... Using a Ouiji Board, he told me the same holds for pets who spend extended periods at the baby sitter's home. Seriously, I wonder if the British Gov't knows that in some states, the law now requires owners of dogs and cats to keep rabies vaccinations current. Rabies is so endemic where I live that a local ordinance was past last year making property owners who feed feral cats responsible for providing these cats medical care [including vaccinations]. Many, probably most of us, fed our forest living 'mouse patrols' in the winter until this ordinance was passed. Fear of rabies was the reason for the ordinance. Lynn
