Town makes it illegal to own more than 3 cats

DUDLEY, Mass. — It's now illegal in one Massachusetts town to own more than three cats without getting a special license. Voters at a town meeting in Dudley on Monday night added language to a town bylaw that makes it illegal to own more than three cats without a $50 residential kennel license. Dudley is about 60 miles southwest of Boston.

The article was in response to a neighborhood feud over the 15 cats owned by Mary Ellen Richards.

The Telegram & Gazette of Worcester reports that one neighbor claimed the cats have ruined his yard.

Richards has put her home up for sale and says she plans to move to a "more cat-friendly community."

Nanny state never makes sense. This is just another source of revenue for the city, getting a $50 fee from every sucker with four cats and a neighbor who doesn't like them crapping in the rose bushes.

More fines, more regulations, more waste of manpower amending all the law books, more waste of manpower enforcing kitty controls, more reasons for neighbors to get people in trouble with the law simply because they don't care for them and are vindictive.

It would have been quite easy to round up a dozen kitties and take them to a no kill shelter than going through a legal battle and counting on nanny state to rush in a save the day.

Especially once they are on YOUR turf and not "their" turf.

Gov and HS employees have been instructed to take impromptu animal census and assessment for living conditions while out and about. And believe me the standards they are planning to implement will allow no one to own an animal without great expense.

Try to never let the HS or the county on your property without a warrant. One such bureaucrat has set insect traps in some of our trees on the edge of the property without our permission which I think is just an excuse to visit and look the place over every two weeks. So far I haven't objected but I told her today when she was checking the traps (and shaking fruit off the trees while supposedly trying to stir up potential bad insects) that I would be pruning the trees next week and they need to be gone by then.

She STOLE your crop harvest by doing that. You should send a bill to the city for compensation at current market rates and make a nasty phone call to the local D.A.'s office. Unless you weren't going to harvest that fruit (I've got a pear tree with more than I can use, I can't even give it all away).

Take them down to your local soup kitchen.
