The Animal Control Division will inform registered caregivers who desire to be notified of community cat hot spots and complaints and allow at least 21 days for the caregiver community to provide response and resolution of the complaint. Leaving cats in place and allowing registered caregivers the opportunity to resolve complaints and conflicts before any city provided removal response is initiated is the City’s first preference. If many assume a small responsibility for providing sterilization and care for just one, two or three cats around their own home, according to these guidelines, then both our animal and human residents will experience a much better quality of life and the population should decrease. The community is encouraged to play a small role at home as “backyard sanctuary caregivers”. The ordinance promotes community-wide participation in reducing the overpopulation of outdoor cats and providing better care, resulting in reduced need for permanent removal. Too often TNR and RTF (Return to Field) programs do not adequately provide care of the cats that are relegated to a life outdoors nor are they responsive to the complaints that arise due to their continued presence. The ordinance is a balanced framework providing for adequate care of community cats and response to complaints. TNR remains a controversial practice and the City’s role is manager of these activities, not participant. The ordinance provides a pathway for private practice of TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) activities. The City of Pompano beach Ordinance Section 90.22 provides guidelines for care of Community Cats.
