I fear their “help” will be getting rid of the cats in a bad/negative way. I want to see cats get the same level of help and care that dogs do.

The west side is like this too!! The cats are EVERYWHERE. They have litter and food stations at the park on sunset and an empty lot on Schuyler & green.

That's just an excuse just to put the cat to sleep. Nobody wants to help injured animals for free because it's all about money and not love🤷🤷😡😡😥😥

“Animal control” but they ONLY handle dogs. They will not and REFUSE to handle any other animal. Some bullshit civil service that is

The city should pay a vet to spay and neuter free of charge, just have to prove residency. Until the problem is under control.

No one wants to help the cats. I’m in South Utica and it’s a dumping ground over here. Spring comes and babies get made, all summer they’re coming around for food and then winter they’re suffering in the cold. Breaks my heart.

People need to keep their cats inside and spayed or neutered , they deserve food shelter and love . They populate so fast .... we need a catch and release to stop the uptick in population it's horrible where I'm at breaks my heart

We need a local vet to step up and help with ketch and release. We have absolutely no shortage on vets in the area. We no longer have spring farms that used to help with grants for low cost spay and neuter clinics. It should not cost 350 for a neuter and over 500 for a spay.

2 strays died near the property i rented- i called animal control + the city multiple times, asked a local vet, even went to city hall asking for help and who to talk - no help. we were left with 2 dead cats to figure out how to take care of on our own - i was distraught. ive had to move multiple dead animals out the roads, tried to save multiple, was able to home at least 4 strays. my whole life lived in utica the city has never helped with the living or dead animals when asked- only ever a few people in the community who had the means help

Honestly, as bad as it sounds, they need a trap and euthanasia program. This is too many cats to find homes for and they're suffering in the streets all winter.

Bring back a voucher program so people can get their animals fixed without having to wait months to get in or it costing $375.

if there's that many there, somebody is putting food out for them. strays go where there's food, even if it was only put out a couple times.
