But the article makes it plain that they had permission "The Parkers had
planned to import 14 Savannah Cats in November after gaining written
approval from the Federal Government and Australian Customs.". So seems they
did not act foolishly and as the government has changed its mind (and for
once in the correct way!) the Parkers have I would have thought some grounds
for feeling hard done by!
