Yesterday evening a orange male cat attacked my leg severely biting and scratching me. The cat was wearing a yellow collar and took off into the neighborhood behind our house. My doctor said that the cat needs to be found and checked for rabies. I have no idea who the cat belongs to and my direct neighbors don’t own him

Aggressive deer charged at me and my dog on a walk two times in the past 24 hours. First encounter was last night (9/13) around 7:30p in the alleyway between University & 1st near to Woodlawn Ave. The second incident happened along S. Ballantine Rd between Maxwell Ln & Sheridan Dr. this morning (9/14) around 7:15a. Both instances involved does that did not have any fawns nearby and were unprovoked - my dog did not try to chase or attack as we both didn’t notice them initially. I had to throw nearby items that were on the ground, such as sticks & rocks, multiple times in order to get them to leave us alone. Extremely unnerving behavior especially for does without fawns and is a hazard to anyone in the neighborhood.
The deer population is as bad as the homeless population. They are a danger to humans and we endanger the deer. They hiss at me when I talk my dog for a walk to the point that I fear the deer will attack me. I am constantly having to watch for deer and they have literally ran right into my car. Deer are not supposed to live in a city so why are they in ours. They are not friendly nor are they safe for the residents. Just like the homeless people. This city has become more dangerous than I could have ever imagined and I have lived here for 30 years. I am very disappointed in the city and the way its progressing. Columbus has more job opportunities than Bloomington which is sad.
It appears that a bird has dropped a dead squirrel in our lawn next to our steps at 508 N. Lincoln Street and is causing a very foul smell in the area. We were wondering if the town could help in removal of the dead animal.
I was walking my dog this morning when we noticed a deer ahead in the road, several hundred feet away. So we stopped and turned around to go the other way. I looked back after turning and realized it was aggressively running at us. Fortunately I am young and am able to run. But others in my neighborhood may not be so fortunate. This is completely unacceptable. I know that this is likely a doe protecting a fawn nearby, but I find this unacceptable as a citizen trying to use a public road to walk. It’s outrageous. Had I not seen it running at us it could have attacked and killed my dog, as they have been known to do, or attacked me.
