Germans who have legally separated do not have the right to visit the pets they shared with their spouses, a court said Wednesday, rejecting the complaint of a dejected wife.

The man objected and the court found that while separated spouses have a right to a fair division of property, this did not include joint custody of pets.

That's just plain cruel...with some people, their pets are their kids....
