Council agrees to re-invite humane-society representative to discuss feral-cat concerns
Summary
A councilor asked the city to follow up on feral-cat issues and to re-invite Lisa from the humane society; council agreed staff would coordinate with county animal services and schedule a future discussion.
A councilor raised a neighborhood concern about feral and unspayed cats and asked whether the city could revisit an ordinance and coordination with animal-services partners. The council agreed to re-invite Lisa from the humane society to present and to coordinate with county animal services as needed.
The councilor described a local encounter and noted the challenge of controlling feral populations without spay/neuter programs: "She came home, and she barfed up 3 big piles... It turns out that the old guy that lives down there free feeds feral cats," the councilor said, urging outreach to humane-society partners. Staff said they would loop back with Lisa and noted county animal-services presence in town earlier that day.
