Allowing your catsw to roam is also illegal. Cats destroy large numbers of wild birds, defecate in garden beds, and male cats will spray urine on buidlings and walls. Unneutered pets, allowed to roam free, will reproduce, adding to the already staggering number of unwanted animals to th eHumane Society's burden. If you keep your dogs on your property and your cats indoors, you can rest assured that your pets are not nuisances.
