I suggest send stray cats to Broomell and Dunn since they voted for the “emergency” animal control contract and extended it from 18 months to 3 years, with no advance notice to anyone. On second thought, send them to Broomell since Dunn’s residence is a mystery.

Opinionated Mom: whether I have children or not is immaterial. I for one have to work for a living and my tax dollars surely can be better used. But you raise another important issue in this county: the danger of wild cats.

I have no problem trapping and getting rid of feral cats. Since the county won’t address this animal control problem, then I would tell you to take it upon yourself and trap them. The law permits destroying the animal if it is considered a threat– and the health department reports in the state and county show that wild cats often carry rabies and their feces can be a public health threat, especially to children.

If the county’s new animal control contractor can’t do its job, then take the cat and drop it off at the County Building! Maybe then the county will address the real problem of feral cats, as you pointed out.

Ron,
Great research! It is a shame that we have RINOS on the council. I offered for them to switch parties the other night at the council meeting. I would like to see the county get out of the park business but we are going head strong into it. Just more spending by the “Free Spending Three”.
