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 . . .
with 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.
