Spay & Neuter Program

A property owner or occupier in urban Leamington is permitted to trap any cat found trespassing on its property in a humane, portable container that can be provided to you by the Municipality upon request. The cat must be kept safe by providing adequate food, water, and shelter appropriate to the weather conditions for the cat. 

The Municipality of Leamington has traps available for use. A $80.00 deposit is required and the cages may be rented for $15.00 per day.

Cat Trap Request

Leamington residents also have the option of dropping off a stray cat at the Windsor-Essex Humane Society in Windsor for a fee of $30.00. 

Community cats, also called feral cats, are members of the domestic cat species just like pet cats but are usually not socialized to people and therefore are not adoptable.

Like all animals, feral cats make their home where they find shelter and food, often in close proximity to people. We understand that not everyone enjoys having cats in their yards and these simple tips may help you divert feral cats away from certain areas.
