need removal of dead skunk in road
Neighbor's cat is coming across the street and hunting songbirds in my fenced backyard. Neighbor's name is Jennifer and she lives at 802 W 7th, Apartment 1. I have spoken to her three times about her cat. I live at 720 W 7th. I have a fish pond in my backyard and her cat poses a hazard to my fish as well as the songbirds in my yard. It is also making a toilet of my garden.
Dead fawn on sidewalk in front of house on N side of University middle house between Park and Fess.
Dead squirrel under tree outside house (704 E. 1st Street)
There are two dead racoons on E. 1st St, just east of Fess Ave. I noticed them early on the morning of Saturday, May 26th.
While walking our dog, the neighbors (5910 S Foxwood Ln) dog (large fluffy yellow) came charging across the street, jumped and took our 80lb lab down by the neck. The neighbors dog never barked or growled, just attacked. I never heard him approaching, even with my hearing aids. My husband saw the dog charging and started yelling since this particular dog has attacked other dogs in the neighborhood. My husband jumped on the dogs, removing the neighbors dog from ours and holding it onto the ground. I ran to our dog and crouched over him in case the other managed to get free. Our son ran to the neighbors door to alert them of their dog. Amber, our neighbor, came out to get her dog and was apologetic. She is having a party and someone opened the door and the dog got out. However, this extremely aggressive and unprovoked behavior by her dog has happened before so I want this on record. I will speak to my neighbor when I calm down. We checked our dog for injuries when we got home and he seems guarded but uninjured.
Brown/white bully mix constantly barks. It has jumped the fence twice already, I am worried one of the young kids in the area will be attacked. This dog is aggressive when inside the fence, not managed or contained properly. Owners have been spoke too by numerous neighbors about their concerns for the behaviors of this animal. They have said it was "rescued" from being a bate dog.
4231 W Lilac has a male black cat in danger; at one time I assumed and told the Animal Control Officer Eubanks that "Jack" was ok. He has swollen eye shut, signs of malnourishment and neglect by the owners at 4231 W Lilac; this family appears to be low income and have struggles; they are taking care of this cat; the cat "Jack" is in danger of more neglect and animal cruelty unless, an offcer approaches the family and sees for themself. Since the last time I spoke with Officer Eubanks, Jack the cat has deteriorated drastically. Also, I was unable to place the Momma Tortiose Shell, the good news is that she was not pregnant; she just looked like it. I have placed an ad in the paper hopefully, to seek her a new home. The tortiose momma kitty, I have been feeding, providing medical care and human interaction, she is very sweet but, it afraid to come into my home because she appears to be very afraid of other cats. So, hopefully someone will answer my ad to give her a loving home, she no longer has a cat meow voice, it is gone, she has had some trauma from the last time animal control was not able to pick her up and she was in a cage too long and that traumatized her. Her voice has not returned. Her's eyes show her pain and she loves being held, this is one sweet cat, sadly she will most likely die on my porch or underneath my home. There are not enough people around that care enough about the strays. Thanks to Nadine Eubanks and her perseverance in at least capturing two other strays at my address and getting to the facility for care.
There are barking dogs at this address all day long starting very early in the morning. It's especially bad between 8am-12pm. They need to be forced to put up a solid fence around their backyard so their dogs can't see the street or backyard neighbors. When the inhabitants of this house were addressed by the neighbors they threatened to physically harm anyone complaining about their dogs. The police were called last year due to the physical threats. There must be some ordinance about barking dogs all day long. Can you make them put up a solid fence so their dogs can't see anyone who is walking by on the street or in their own backyard?
