Two cats are located at 613 E 2nd St and are currently being neglected. The owner refuses to clean up the litter boxes and only does so once a week. Both cats are suspected to have UTIs and one cat has been throwing up her food for months with no vet appointment booked. The owner, Lilian Ross is renting the apartment and does not feed them in a timely manner nor does she provide them with water. Please investigate this issue as both of these cats do not deserve to live in such squalid conditions.

Woman living in an RV in the back yard is operating an open air cat kennel without a permit. She also provides food, water or shelter to a colony of feral cats without being registered with the City of Bloomington Animal Care and Control Department or its designee. There are 3 walk in cages housing cats in the back yard. I have a video illustrating this if you will contact me I can share it. I am an Environmental Health Specialist with the Monroe County Health Department.

I am a teacher at Binford Elementary. I work with a student who lives in this home. While over winter break, our school skills development instructor went into the home. This individual stated there is a dog with a "visibly broken leg." When our skills instructor requested information on the dog, the family changed the subject. In the home are two parents, three sons and one daughter. All three sons have autism that result in physically abusive explosions. I am the teacher of the oldest son who is unhealthily obsessed with his cat. He makes disturbing comments about the cat and students have said he has made sexual advances towards the animal. I have never heard anything directly from this student about the advances, but he does make comments that are concerning about his love for the cat. The skills instructor stated the house was very messy and had a terrible odor from the inside, possibly due to the animals inside the home. I am unsure as to how many pets there are.

The neighbor's dog escaped their property and attacked my cat. They have a 4-ft. chain link fence, which their dog can easily get under (and likely go over too). This is the second time their dog has done this. All I want is for them to either build a more secure fence or find another way to restrain their dogs. I'm mostly submitting this as documentation in case this happens again and they refuse to secure their dogs. Details: Their address is 5389 N Hanna Ct. They recently put tension wire on the the fence, but I don't think it's installed properly as it is 6-8" off the ground and loose. The fence is still loose or off the ground in many places. The dog is a German Shepherd. My cat only goes outside for a brief period each day in my yard while I'm standing there watching it. The dog did not attack me, but I did get scratched up trying to stop it from killing my cat. (I'm including the photo just as evidence that this event happened. I don't think the dog is dangerous to people.)

This van was parked outside my building from at least 9pm (12/11) till sometime after 5am (12/12) on. we thought we had heard dogs in the car a little after nine and went to check it out and couldn’t hear anything. Around 3:20am we heard them again and found that they were in this car and had been since the car was parked. The police arrived and the dogs weren’t barking so they wouldn’t do any thing . It was 30 degrees last night and we have no way of knowing what kind of condition they were in however leaving them caged in a car in 30 degree weather is cruel. This car regularly parks here and the owner is unknown to me. The license plate is GW5522 and it’s a white dodge grand caravan with FDSA stickers above the gas cap

Continuous issue with letting their dog roam freely without a leash on. No owner in sight when dog is let out. This is becoming an issue because their dog is approaching my dog when he’s on a leash and approaching other dogs while they’re on their leashes. This can cause a lot of issues as to children in the area and possibly an adult. The neighbor is also allowing the dog to urinate on other people’s front porches. The address is: 5227 N Raubs Lane, Bloomington, IN 47404

There is at least one skunk living under the boardwalk/under the playground at Building Trades Park. Seen it multiple times in the last week or two. Lots of dogs and cats in the neighborhood -- worry it'll spray someone/someone's pet.
