Well, his first mistake was buying a condo. COA's are worse than HOA's.
My neighbors know we're the "snake people", and because of that we're contacted about once a month in warmer weather to relocate a black rat or garter snake from a garage. They don't know how many we have, nor do they know about the retics. A few have seen and like the king snakes, ball pythons, and boas.
There's also a couple of "lizard people" in the community who have geckos and chameleons, and of course we have not just one but two crazy cat ladies.
