Our city has always required you to also get pets fixed after they're adopted, too. When we adopted Roxy back in 2002 (wow, so long ago ) we had to get her spayed. If you adopt a kitten or something though, they will remind you about getting them spayed, but they don't go all gunghoe on making sure they're spayed/neutered if they're adopted. They'll remind you a couple of times and then they don't bother to care...

And I agree, there really is no way to enforce the rule, although I totally wish there was.

I appreciate all your input, I'll let everyone know how things go if they officially pass the ordinance. Maybe they'll think about it a little harder and do some serious enforcing.
