No, you will need to contact Animal Control at 800.249.0911. You may also want to file a report in our lost and found department by calling 616.399.2119.

The answer to this is definitely no. Pets are property with added emotional value. The owner must be provided the opportunity to find their pet. When the pet is turned over to the appropriate animal shelter the owner can come in or call a logical centralized place to look for their pet. If you keep the pet at your home it is highly unlikely the pet owner is going to have the opportunity to find it.

Animal control services are provided to the township by St. Hubert’s Giralda Animal Hospital. To contact St. Hubert's by phone, dial 973-377-2295.

If you notice an unfamiliar animal just once, let it alone to find its own way home. If the animal continues to appear over a period of several days, it may be lost or abandoned and you should take action.

If it behaves in a hostile or erratic manner, stay away and report it to police, animal control or a local shelter.

A stray cat is a cat who has strayed from home--often in search of a mate--and become lost, or was abandoned. Stray cats may be friendly or may have become wary of people. Their offspring may be feral. Because they have had human contact, they are less frightened of people than feral cats and can usually be socialized and adopted into a home.

A stray cat is a domestic cat that has been abandoned or has strayed from home and become lost. A stray cat may be skittish in your presence, but because stray cats once knew human companionship, they can usually be re-socialized and re-homed. A feral cat is born and raised outside with little or no human contact or is a stray that has lived outside long enough to revert to a wild state. Adult feral cats usually cannot be tamed and are most content living outside.

Do not feed, pet or handle any stray or wild animal. Keep your animals from coming into contact with it. Capture the animal, if possible, without risking exposure. If the raccoon is in a garage, close all doors and windows. Then call your local animal control agency for further instructions.

Well, we didn't actually make the cat treats, we made a bundle of cat treats with a cat food bowl (and these are in limited quantity). We did this because we found a good deal on the bowls. Unfortunately, the dog bowls were much more expensive at the time, so we never produced a dog treat. Should the demand arise, or we find a good deal on bowls, we will consider producing dog treats. Besides, it's harder to find good treats for cats.

If you find a stray dog or cat, contact Animal Care and Control and report it. If you desire to have it picked up, we will do so as quickly as possible.
