<div class="moz-cite-prefix">A few weeks ago, I saw a woman bring a
cat in to Turing in a crate. I told her that cats are not
permitted at noisebrige, by long-standing consensus. She tried to
claim emotional support animal, which doesn't matter (not an ADA
protected class), but left without conflict.<br>
<br>
I suspect she's back. Tell them to leave. No remorse.<br>

<div>beings bringing animals to the space and taking over

<div>the other day we came in and some being had put another
being's pit bull in the treehouse (booth) because the being
with the dog had completely left the space and the dog behind
on its own. this was apparently the resolution until the being
with the dog returned (if at all) rendering that part of the
space unusable.</div>
<div><br>
today i came in and turing was closed up (both doors) because
a being had a cat out of a cage (i have seen this cage brought
to the space numerous times before with a crying cat in it)
running around turing (i saw no signs of a litter box though
that doesn't really matter). i found this very selfish and
inconsiderate. when the doors were opened the cat was placed
in its prison which initiated it crying without end.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>additionally, the cage was located on top of a table
adjacent to where they were working rendering it basically
unavailable (at a minimum appearing occupied) to others whom
may have wanted to come in and work (yes. anyone could have
come in, asked, and moved it to the floor etc.. that is a
given).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>summation:</div>
<div>last time i checked NB isn't your personal animal shelter,
daycare, surrogate daycare/supervision.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>it is unexcellent to close off ANY part of the space to use
for your pet pen or private romper room.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>it is unexcellent and inconsiderate to leave the space and
your animal(s) behind in the space.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>i love having animals 'that can deal' visit the space and
hang out with everyone and it's a very kewl aspect of NB's
openess. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>please don't project your own issues or agendas onto your
animal(s) or the space in general.</div>
