Pet rent is ridiculous rent is already sky high and now it makes things even harder and forces people who let go of their beloved pets and creates more of an issue for animal shelters due to pet rent 1000s of dogs a year are put down because shelters are over ran. Families are already struggling to make ends meet and pet rent on top of paying a deposit is just greedy and unjustified. It shouldn't be allowed renters already deal with 80% of landlords being slum lords we shouldn't have to work to death just to have a roof over our heads and keep our fur babies.
I am a former NJ resident and part of a TNR program in the city I lived in and had a small colony that I took care of. I was a NJ resident when this bill first came around. I supported it then as I do now. Community cats need help! And also the advocates for them.
TNR works! I did it years ago in my neighborhood at my own cost. Keeping animals from being born in the wild is a lot easier than trying to keep them fed and healthy.
As a former long time resident of NJ I see the extreme need for low cost spay/neuter. It is so expensive to care for a family/pet. Help with spay/neuter would reduce the animal over population.
People who do Trap/Neuter/Release are reducing the number of homeless cats.
TNR has been proven to make a big difference by managing this problem rather than
killing these innocent cats who are in dire situations and fighting for survival. This
horrible situation is the result of people failing to neuter/spay their pets and often
simply abandoning pets when it suits them. Many municipalities work with residents
for the benefit of everyone…especially the cats. Give this a try rather than wholesale
slaughter.
Members of the community who actively care for the community cats also participate in Trapping/Neutering/Releasing them to avoid overpopulation and care for these animals. By banning feeding them you're only contributing to the problem, not making a solution where there are plenty of organizations and community members who already participate in ensuring the welfare of these animals.
TNR works. Thousands of dedicated people all over the world trap, rescue, and return ferals. These are people who are responsible and care for animals. They are resolute in the conviction these animals are
innocent and are in their homeless situation because
of humans discarding them. The easy and inhumane
way out of this situation is to ignore the ferals and
let them starve to death ... or step up and do the right
thing .
As a Floridian of thirty years, I have seen with my own eyes that Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) works. By not allowing feeding community cats, and by virtue of that not allowing TNR, you are upsetting a naturally occurring pest-control ecosystem that has worked for more years than any of you have been on this earth. The community cats are G-d's creatures same as we humans are. Let the community cats live!
