• Find all your findings, as they may be protected by neighbors or veterinary hospitals.
• Let's put a dog dog's license tag and rabies vaccination vote on the dog's collar. The owner can tell from the number and contact you.
• It is unexpectedly difficult to convey the characteristics accurately without looking at the dog. Let's keep photos and records in case of emergency.
• If you have protected a dog whose owner is unknown, please contact your local Health and Welfare Center (health center).

Please refer to the website of the Yokohama City Animal Protection Center.

When a dog bites a person, the owner must deliver it to Health and Welfare Center by the day after he becomes aware of the fact and, within two days, show the dog to veterinarian for a rabies checkup. (It is determined by the ordinance on the protection and management of animals in Yokohama City.)

If your registered dog dies, please contact Health and Welfare Center.

We distribute appropriate treatment of feces and urine, and enlightenment plates for proper breeding.
If you wish, please come directly to the counter.
If you need a large number of copies, please contact us in advance.

Rule 1: Let's take the feces home

Let's train the toilet at home. If you leave the toilet during a walk, take your feces home and dispose of them at home. Also, put water in a plastic bottle and carry it with you, and wash it when you pee.

Rule 2: Don't leave it alone

Free-ranging in public places is prohibited. Do not release the lead when exercising or walking.

Rule 3: Don't bother your neighbors

Keep it so that it does not bother your neighbors with squeals or smells.

Rule 4: Registration and rabies vaccination

It is the owner's duty to register and get rabies vaccination every year. (Rabies Prevention Act)

It seems that there are many people who are suffering from damage such as cats entering the garden at home without permission, peeing, and destroying flower beds.
Unfortunately, there is currently no definitive way to prevent cat invasion.
But some of them said, "It went well in this way." "When I tried this, the cat stopped coming at all." Here are some examples.
However, not all of them are effective. Cats also have their own personality. Also, even if it is effective, you may get used to it immediately. Don't give up and try various methods repeatedly.

1. Please note that using the medicine may cause the cat's nose to get stuck or cause complaints from your neighbors if the smell is severe.
2. Depending on the material used, plants and flowers in flower beds may be used, so when using around plants, look at the situation in small quantities before using it or put it in a container.
3. Please note that the usual method of putting water in plastic bottles and arranging them may cause a fire due to the lens effect of sunlight.
4. In each case, it is assumed that the cat will be carefully observed first, the path and time of day, etc., and the cat feeding area is not nearby.

Lending ultrasonic generators to those who are in need of cats entering the garden.

• Please apply by phone and come to the Health Sanitation Division window.
• The rental period is 2 weeks.
• Please prepare batteries (4 single batteries) by yourself.

• For those who are free to put their cats out of the room

Now that residential land has progressed, it is no longer always happy for cats to spend their time freely outside.

In addition to increasing the risk of traffic accidents and the chance of getting an infectious disease, it can also lead to unexpected troubles such as ruining the garden or damaging the car without the owner's knowledge.

You can keep it indoors if you devise it even in a small space. Consider the safety of cats and consider indoor breeding.

• For those who feed cats without owners (so-called Nora cats)

Even if you feed a cat in good faith, because it's cute and poor, do you care where and what the cat usually does?

Feeding can cause cats to gather and cause severe inconvenience to the neighborhood, such as giving birth to kittens, excreting manure on other people's premises, and damaging flower beds and cars.

As a result of irresponsible feeding, if a cat is hated, it will be overturned. If you feed, please follow the rules below.

Also, if possible, take care of it with responsibility until the end, such as keeping it in the house or looking for a foster parent.

• Partial subsidy for cat sterilization and neutering costs

Rule 1: Breeding restrictions

Let's have a sterile castration operation. It is also necessary for males.
Restricting breeding can prevent cats from exploding.
Depending on the timing, some subsidies may be provided for the cost of surgery.

If the cat is difficult to catch, consult a Health and Welfare Center or a veterinary clinic.

Rule 2: Train the toilet

Let's do manure in the house.
In the case of Nora cats, make a comfortable toilet nearby and train them there.

Rule 3: Management of food

Leaving food is not only unsanitary, but can also attract insects, rats, crows, etc.
Determine rules such as time and number of times and feed, and clean up after eating.

Rule 4: Make it clear

Mark your collar and other landmarks so that you can identify yourself as a cat you care for.

Rule 5: Gain understanding of neighborhoods

This is the most difficult thing. However, some people understand if they tell them that they are obeying the rules. There is also a possibility that someone will cooperate. Let's continue our efforts without giving up.
