Pets in Bangalore<\/h2>\n

Dogs and cats are both popular pets in Bangalore. That said, the concept of having a pet is an emerging one, most popular with the upper-middle class. There are plenty of stray animals (mostly friendly types) that roam the city streets and some Indians consider bringing animals into your home unhygienic, while others are afraid. Bangalore isn’t known for its sidewalks or walkways, however, there are several large parks, such as Cubbon Park, Lalbagh and Palace Grounds, which offer large outdoor spaces to walk your pet on a leash. Most street dogs are rather friendly so walking your pet shouldn’t be an issue, though flees and ticks may become one if they become extra friendly.<\/p>\n

Also, be sure to check if the apartment block you have chosen allows residents to keep pets or ensure that your real estate agent is aware that you have a pet while looking for a house since some societies refuse pets on the premises.<\/p>\n

Interestingly ‘Bring Fido’ ranks Bangalore as the #2 ‘Dog-Friendly City in Asia’ due to the presence of five pet-friendly hotels in Bangalore<\/a>. Pet-friendly hotels\/service apartments include Le Meridien Hotel and Chalet Tulips.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ el_class=”city-side-bar”][vc_row_inner el_class=”sidebar-section-one”][vc_column_inner][vc_custom_heading text=”Top Tips” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:24|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff” google_fonts=”font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_separator color=”#ffffff” type=”full_width” thickness=”1″ up=”” down=””][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
01<\/td>\nAlways carry several passport-sized headshots with you. You will require these for nearly every account you open and every form that you complete.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
02<\/td>\nWhen filing applications and opening accounts (particularly with government offices) ensure you bring with you every imaginable supporting document.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
03<\/td>\nGovernment offices in particular can be very arbitrary and demanding on your patience, so be prepared for a full run-around and keep your patience!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
04<\/td>\nBuilding a social network in Bangalore is very important, both for the feel-good factor, as well the premise that India operates on connections.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
05<\/td>\nAs a foreigner, you may not be expected to play by the many cultural rules that exist for most Indians. Despite this you should always make an effort.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
