Cat Owners Hiss at Licensing Proposal
« on: July 15, 2011, 02:41:11 AM »
Should cats be treated like dogs, when it comes to licensing and immunization requirements?

The San Diego city auditor's office recommends doing just that -- for the sake of health, safety and "cost recovery" for taxpayers.

According to formulas used by the Humane Society of the United States, there are an estimated 373,000 cats in San Diego.

If just 5 percent had been registered at $25 a head, the auditor's office says the city could have saved $536,000 over the past three fiscal years.

Cat owners say the idea defies logic and accounting principles. ...

Dear Lord, if the people in San Diego have any common sense they will abandon this immediately. The incompetent Halifax city counsel brought this up and it caused so many issues and insane nonsense it wasn't funny.

This whole thing is  :bs:, something I know based on what happened in Halifax.
