You’re scouring the net to look up pet essentials and training tips, but hold on – you’ve come across this complicated and worrisome list of HDB rules and regulations that’s got your head spinning. No fear, because we got your back with this TL;DR quick-list to help you make the correct decisions that are best for you and your little animal buddy.

But if, just if you are keeping one, install cat screens on your windows for their safety\! Other Illegal Pets ![A Quick Guide to HDB Rules for Pets](https://www.clubpets.com.sg/newweb/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/A-Quick-Guide-to-HDB-Rules-for-Pets-3.jpg) Sorry, BTS fans, you’ll not be allowed to keep sugar gliders in your HDB, no matter how much you want one.

Crocodilian Reptiles One-Dog Policy A one-dog policy applies if you live in an HDB flat. For private housing, AVA allows a maximum of 3 small-breed dogs. Alternatively, amongst the 3 dogs, 1 “Scheduled” dog is allowed. Click [here](https://www.nparks.gov.sg/avs/-/media/avs/resources/dog-licensing/list-of-scheduled-dogs-and-additional-licensing-conditions.pdf) to peruse the list for “Scheduled” breeds. Also, all dogs must be licensed by the NParks Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) and implanted with a microchip. 62 Allowed Dog Breeds ![A Quick Guide to HDB Rules for Pets](https://www.clubpets.com.sg/newweb/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/A-Quick-Guide-to-HDB-Rules-for-Pets-4.jpg) Generally, small dogs that are less than 40cm broad across the shoulders and below 10kg are amongst the breeds that are HDB-approved. Just to be extra sure though, refer to the full list [here](http://www.spca.org.sg/services_adoption_hdb_regulation.asp) to check if your soon-to-be furry friend is suited for your home\! Rabbits and smaller critters If you’ve got a thing for even smaller animals, here are the approved species that you can keep in your HDB flat: 1. Birds 2. Chinchillas 3. Fish 4. Gerbils 5. Green tree frogs (Litoria Caerulea) 6. Guinea pigs 7. Hamsters 8. Land hermit crabs (Coenobita Rugosus) 9. Malayan box turtles 10. Mice 11. Rabbits 12.
