The City of Wanneroo in Perth has endorsed a draft Cat Local Law, and will seek public comment on some significant changes.
According to PerthNow, the new law proposes to prohibit cats from some areas, such as Yellagonga Regional Park and Lake Gnangara.
There’ll be an obligation on cat owners to prevent their animal from creating a nuisance.
State legislation currently does not give councils power to introduce more restrictive policies, such as containment provisions.
There is a proposal to change the Cat Act 2011, which would allow local governments to bring in stronger provisions, potentially within 12 months.
