Yes, I keep snakes. No, they will not attack you.

Maybe Forest Lake Apartments or this place called Cambridge apartments?

I'm pretty sure Cambridge is one of the places I called, and they gave me a firm NO when they discovered the pet in question is a snake.

I will try Forest Lake Apts though, thanks! :)

have you tried just saying it's a caged reptile?? or saying nothing at all because a snake isn't really a "pet" look into the tenant laws down there... I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure they can't deny you because you have a pet.

I have told them that it's a caged reptile, and that there's no way it's ever going to get loose or anything... it's not a large species either.

I used to live in Charleston, and most places, if the animal is housed in a vivarium or tank; it's not actually considered a pet, thus, no need for a pet fee or anything. To most places, it's like keeping fish, but here they're all "OMG, EEEEW!" about it.

I just don't want to move in to a place, and then later, if/when they find out I have a snake, then they want to evict me, but if it's not in the leasing agreement, there's nothing they can do, right?

hmmmm maybe just dont tell them??

XD

just be like 'well you said pets are okay so i assumed a snake was okay because it was a pet!' if they find out :D

I think that's what I'm going to do, only make sure that there are no discrepancies in the leasing/rental agreement.
