Hello can anyone advise the procedure for removing animals? Has anyone succesfully done this or encountered problems. It appears it could be a lengthy costly drawn out process.
Firstly, what do your by-laws say? Next, is there a proven case of nuisance (noise, weeing on common property, attacking residents)? Finally, is there any suggestion that it’s affecting someone’s health (which comes under strata law rather than by-laws)?
It’s only going to be as long and drawn-out if you go into this half-heartedly. But if you have any or all of the above boxes ticked, I would sit down with the owner and ask them how you can do this in a civilised fashion.
But don’t forget that to may people their pets are their kids – which means they are never any trouble, they are above average intelligence and their ‘parents’ will fight to the death to protect them.
