Issuance of Registration and tag for cats. Section 4-21 Proof of sterilization and micro- <br /> chip implanting. By using any form of collars, these animals would not be able to hunt down rats <br /> successfully. Also any form of collars with or without tags will jeopardize the safety of cats in their <br /> natural environment.They will get hooked up on just about everything. If the pig hunters on record <br /> stated they take their dog collars off because of the terrain, then it doesn't make sense to put cats in <br /> harms way since they are lower to the ground then the average dog, and would get hung up much to easy <br /> in the lava rock, fern, and general overgrowth. Also, it was necessary to own a cat to get after the rat <br /> overpopulation. I thought common sense, and people that truly care about keeping animals safe and out <br /> of harms way, would see that cat collars are brutal for the type of terrain this island is made up <br /> of Limiting people to only 4 pets per household is ridiculous, this is still a free country. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> C) <br /> C n C_ <br /> <br /> <br /> J <br /> F J f <br /> 1J _ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Comm.
