• How do I get a cat trap?

  Residents can request a trap from Animal Services through the Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) program. Cat traps are available free of charge but require a $50.00 refundable deposit and may picked up and returned to the Pet Adoption and Protection Center. Cat traps must be returned within ten days and are available on a first-come-first-served basis.

• How do I get a dog trap?

  Animal Services does not provide dog traps to the public. 

  Animal Control Officers may decide to set up a trap if they are unable to catch a stray dog. If the officer places the trap to capture an animal and you are present when the trap is placed, you can be trained on how to re-set the trap if it gets locked without the animal inside.

  If you decide to purchase a dog trap, you are responsible for the humane capture and care of the animal or you can report the stray.
