Town limits cat ownership?

[Medusa]

Stories such as this really get me riled. I believe that pomtzu came up against the same thing. People want the problem eradicated, they want the cats gone and yet they punish and penalize the people who are working day and night to please these people and help the poor cats at the same time.

When I had houses set up all over the place for ferals, my landlord turned a blind eye and I'm so thankful that he did. Even after I moved away, I had have-a-heart traps set to catch any cats that I still hadn't been able to round up and he was cooperative and let me leave the traps there until I had trapped every last feral, 27 of them not counting the dozens and dozens prior to them. But he was one in a million. I live in an allotment but the community itself is rural and the main method of solving the cat population is to shoot them. I can easily get on my soap box but it only serves to annoy people rather than get their cooperation so I've stopped.

I rent an apartment and the property management company limits us to two cats. That is fine, it is their property and I abide by their rules. They have had problems with irresponsible pet owners in the past and understand where they are coming from. But, if it is my own house, I should be allowed to have as many cats as I want, as long as they are kept indoors or in runs and are well taken care of. Just my views on the subject.

New Jersey is trying too set a 6 cat limit for the state.
