Councilmember Henderson urges action on Hills' stray cat population
Summary
During council comments on Feb. 23, Councilmember Henderson raised concerns about a high number of stray cats in Hills, suggested contacting local veterinarians to seek reduced-cost spay/neuter options for multiple animals, and recommended adding a notice to the city newsletter advising residents to keep cats indoors.
During council comments at the Feb. 23 Hills City Council meeting, Councilmember Henderson said the city has a large number of stray cats and urged the council to explore practical responses. Henderson suggested checking with local veterinarians to see whether they could offer discounted spay/neuter services for multiple animals brought in at once and recommended adding an item to the city newsletter advising residents not to let their cats roam.
No formal motion was made, and the transcript records no follow-up direction from the council or staff during the meeting. The suggestion was recorded as part of council comments; any implementation (for example, outreach to veterinary clinics or a newsletter notice) would require follow-up by city staff or a formal council action in a future meeting.
