Dogs are kept outside on the porch for 8+ hours a day with no shelter, food, or water. They constantly bark, wanting to get away from the cold and rain. When the owner does let them in it’s only 1 dog at a time and it’s never for very long.

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?

There is a homeless camp north of Gordon Pike and east of the Rail Trail. I think it is on City jurisdiction. Someone there has a dog that barks constantly. It has been barking this evening (12/29/23) for 30+ minutes at least. This has become a recurring problem. This dog needs to be stopped from barking and this homeless camp needs to be cleared out. All of the camps along the Rail Trail need to be cleared out. It is creating a danger for trail users as the safety of the trail is declining. Please enforce the rules for the noise issues with the dog and the improper camping and creating a nuisance and a hazard along the trail. Maybe clean up the south end of Switchyard Park while you are at it? Make the trails safe for everyone again. This situation with allowing the homeless camps has gotten out of hand and needs to be cleared up before it continues to get worse.

412 E. 4th St, cat with no collar. too thin, matted coat. Postman says he's seen the cat for weeks or maybe months in same area. Cat is skittish/wary but also sort of meows for help, I think.

A small white poodle dog has been running around the Blue Ridge and Matlock Heights neighborhoods these past few days. It appears to be wearing a collar and tag. We've tried to catch it, but it runs away before we can get to it. This is the location of the last sighting (moments ago).
