Question about Pet Friendly Parks means for cabins

Thanks for the response bit not for the bias.

Why? Our cat is cleaner than some children. He has never been outside and is totally house trained. We normally pay (heaps) the local vet to board him while we are away. He is getting on and he deserves better. He is terrible depressed when we pick him up and takes a few days to get back to his lazy loving self. Not the vet's fault. So why won't you allow us to take him with us when we stay in cabins. Note that we nerver take him bush. Not that stupid.

What about a fish or budgie?

Your idea basically restrict "pet owners" to dogs. Is that fair?

"Why? Our cat is cleaner than some children."

Sorry where did he refer to cats. They should be treated like any other pet, Dogs should be restrained. Cats kept outside and preferably in a cage so they don't go out eating little furry creatures.

Cats may be clean but as a parent of an asthmatic, I would never stay in a cabin that allows cats. Cats can trigger bad asthma attacks for many asthma sufferers. No amount of cleaning can prevent this. Its not just about you and your cat. All paying guests should be considered.

Yes he didn't refer to cats but in only mentioning dogs he eliminated all other pets. There are also some fluffy little girlie dogs that would stuff up an asthmatic.

But we digress as usual.

I just want to know what park managers mean by the statement "pet friendly" when cabins are concerned. It's my fault for responding.

Phil

We are sensitive aren't we. I was trying to be nice but Ah Well!

Actually I really think cats are a blight on society and should be exterminated.

Thinking about it...your enquiry has made me thinking the pets rule is probably a fairly rare case of "One rule fits all" ...I know that probably isn't what you were hoping, however exceptions could lead to some convoluted interpretations and pleadings of what qualifies etc. Would tenting be an option for you...there may be more leeway in that area.

Quite true Witi

Thanks mate. We normally go bush and use a roof top tent. Only use cabins getting to the places we love. And going solo to the desert as much as we can.

But for a weekend to sample the delights of the Berossa etc, then why not a cabin.

After all, the "mate" back at the vets deserves better in his last years.

Phil

Good response. Thanks Glenn

When we went to Hervey Bay last week, Phil, we took our 2 pan-lickers with us. Approaching Emerald, it was obvious they don't mind miners, but pets were something else!

Ended up travelling till about 9pm, where we got a room at a pet friendly motel in Biloela. The lady said to Linda: "........if you want the dogs in the room it's another $15/head." Needless to say, she was told they're "outside dogs".

Actually there is a very friendly Motel in Emerald that reserves 3 of its rooms for pets . [ don't know about cats ] Only stipulation is that the dogs are not allowed on the beds and no more than 2 smallish per room ……Emerald Gardens Motel.

Thanks for that, Alloy. Will have to check it out, though we're reluctant to travel with the pan lickers too much.

The motel we stayed at in Biloela was the Raintree Motel, on way to Gladstone. Didn't have very good reviews, but we found it okay(the room that is) and there is a large park area opposite to give the hounds some freedom. We'd definitely stay there again.

Good day Wendy. I started with the sites place descriptions and then thought that I would ask those who actually use caravan parks whet the story is. We only use them to get somewhere and usually are gone by sun-up. A lot saper than sleeping in the car. Other than that we don't have much experience with them.

All good so far.

Next is to see what Google comes up with.

Thanks Wendy

Phil

Thanks Di.

PS: How could you leave him home after a cuddle like this.

Lost again!!!! Bugger.
