Issuance of Registration and tag for cats. Section 4-21 Proof of sterilization <br /> and micro-chip implanting. By using any form of collars, these animals would not be able to <br /> hunt down rats successfully. Also any form of collars with or without tags will jeopardize the <br /> safety of cats in their natural environment.They will get hooked up on just about everything. If <br /> the pig hunters on record stated they take their dog collars off because of the terrain, then it <br /> doesNt make sense to put cats in harms way since they are lower to the ground then the <br /> average dog, and would get hung up much to easy in the lava rock, fern, and general <br /> overgrowth. Also, it was necessary to own a cat to get after the rat overpopulation. I thought <br /> common sense, and people that truly care about keeping animals safe and out of harms way, <br /> would see that cat collars are brutal for the type of terrain this island is made up of. biting <br /> to only 4 pets per household is ridiculous, this is still a free country. <br /> people CC <br /> <br /> <br /> _1 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> comm.
