The Township's Responsible Pet Ownership By-law limits the number of cats to three (3) per dwelling unit in urban settlement areas. Cat owners are not required to license their cat(s) but must comply with the regulations of the By-law.
If you have any questions concerning the Responsible Pet Ownership By-law or are unsure if you are located in an urban settlement area, please contact us.
