This is from a Chicago news item and i see in today's dog and cat news that Dallas is proposing something similar.cbs2chicago.com - City Considering Mandatory Pet Sterilization
In Dalaas, an alderman is proposing the following:
"An ordinance making it mandatory for all pets to be sterilized, "because people are not living up to their responsibilities as pet owners," he said.
Exemptions would be made for breeders, who have to go through a criminal background check to get a license"
This is a universal issue and I know here in Australia laws have recently been passed making it mandatory to desex cats.Two cats undesexed can be responsible for the birth of around 60,000 off-spring over a period of 12 or so years. You can imagine the fate of many of those!
Would love to hear your thoughts on the issue.
Stay tuned for more dog and cat news soon.
