It varies city or county. I live in Orange Co. FL and you can have 4 pets (I have 2 cairns and 2 kitties) and a husband. Sometimes I think my husband is more of the "livestock" than the 4 furry four leggeds...... In some rural areas you can have 17 (pets,not husbands...).

I've never heard of this in the UK, my friend has seven dogs and on other forums people have 9 and upwards. I suppose it would stop these people that take pets in and get out of their depth though which would be a good thing.

In Georgia it varies a great deal from County to County and if you live in a within a city limits. In the Atlanta metro area they have very strict limits.

But go 30 miles out and it changes a great deal. The laws they are passing are more related to cruelty than numbers. I like having a city close but I am glad I only visit!
