![]() ![]() Note: Before a license is issued for any dog or cat, the owner must present a rabies vaccination certificate, signed by a veterinarian, stating the owner’s name, address, dog or cat description, date of vaccination, type, manufacturer, vaccine serial number, and revaccination date. If the animal is not adopted at this time, the animal then undergoes a “painless death” (euthanasia).Īll dogs and cats kept, harbored, or maintained in the City must be licensed if over four months of age. Note: Over 12 million cats and dogs were turned in to animal shelters last year. An unowned animal or “stray” is held for 72 hours (three days) and is then open for adoption. A cat or dog picked up and placed in the City Animal Control Impound Facility that is not wearing a current license is deemed unowned. If your pet ever does get loose, the license can help ensure a safe return. Remember, you are your pet’s best friend. Contact the Animal Control Department as soon as possible and leave your name, address, home phone number, work phone number, and a description of your animal.
