Today, we're diving into a purrfectly juicy topic: pets in Germany. Whether you're a seasoned cat lady or a dapper dog dude, this episode is your guide to navigating pet ownership in Berlin like a pro. The Legal Stuff In Germany and Berlin, pet ownership is regulated by federal and local laws.

But remember, exotic animals may require special permits.Small Animal Talk: For hamsters, guinea pigs, and birdies, being respectful of flatmates is key.
