Control of Domestic Cats

Additional Information

Domestic cats have a large impact on the community and natural environment, causing nuisance and damage to property, spreading disease through fouling, and killing local wildlife. Legislation should require:

Compulsory identification through microchipping;

Compulsory registration; and

Compulsory sterilisation.

While legislation will not resolve all problems associated with cats, it will provide the mechanism to:

Encourage responsible cat ownership;

Reduce the number of unwanted cats being bred;

Allow for cats found in a public place or on private property to be seized; and

Allow for reuniting of lost cats with their owners.

Such legislation was successfully passed into law in Western Australia on 09 November 2011.
