You're wrong jon, absolutely wrong. In the eyes of the law, cats can't do any wrong, it's always the dogs fault. If a cat comes onto your property and causes your kenneled dogs to bark, the owner of the cat can sign a complaint and win. Enough complaints like that and your dogs can be destroyed.
For over 30 years I've lived on 11 acres, 145 acre wooded tract on 1 side of me, 300 acres of Consumer Union property on another, ~120 acres state owned across from me, and 1 losey neighbor with cats that moved in a few years ago. My wife now lives in upstate New York with our dogs or our dogs would have to be destroyed because of that neighbor who purposely went out of her way to cause the problem. We could no longer afford the legal fees, it cost that neighbor nothing to sign the complaint, the state paid the rest.
Oh wow, no wondor you have a thing with cats, I see your frustration. However, is sounds like you have a crazy unreasonable neighbor and your dogs bark too much.
I had a neighbor back in the day with two dogs, which I hated. I really wanted to kill those things. I didn't have to because he ended up moving pretty quick after a few heated discussions. If a leaf blew by, they would bark, if a squirell was in sight they would bark, if a cat went by they would bark, basically if anything moved or made a noise they would bark. It is not the fault of the leaf, cat or squirrell that the dogs always barked - IT IS A DOG PROBLEM !
The reason there is no laws pertaining to cats and there is with dogs is because dogs are dangerous and cats are not. I don't think anyone really cares if a cat is in their yard or if one left paw prints on their car, there is more important things to worry about..
Wow, I can't beleive I just wrote all this about cats and dogs..
