Hi,
I am a senior citizen and Petaluma has been my home for the past 35 years.  I love Petaluma.  It is a wonderful City with plenty of history and wonderful people.  Like everything else or anywhere else, politics is not perfect in Petaluma.  Sometimes a group of people can govern a city and if no one pays attention, bad regulations can become laws.

It happened in Petaluma in 2004 when a group of people with too much influence with City Council drafted an ordinance that Council passed unanimously.  The result has been high cost to the City and citizens of Petaluma and the death of hundreds innocent  animals.   You can find out more here: Petaluma Feral Cats


And please vote . . .
w
ith your heart and common sense.



In 2004 the Petaluma City Council voted unanimously to adopt an inhumane law that banned outdoors cats from almost the whole city of Petaluma.   The ordinance was drafted by Petaluma Animal Shelter Manager, Nancee Tavares and a group of Shollenberger Park Docents and modeled after organizations such as ABC and PRBO.  (Read about it here)  Soon after adopting the ordinance, animal shelter began the extermination of Petaluma outdoor cats.

Recently Samantha Freitas met at my home with a group of concerned citizens and we spoke solely about the ordinance and feral cats.  Samantha Freitas was not on City Council in 2004 and I don't know how she would have voted had she been, but I know that if the ordinance came to council now, I think feral cats would have a fair chance with Samantha Freitas.  She is an animal lover and now understands the plight of Petaluma feral cats.

Thank you Samantha.
