Canberra Birds’ Area of Interest extends well into the Queanbeyan-Palerang LGA. Because roaming cats are a serious threat to local wildlife, Council (QPRC) has placed on public exhibition its 'Draft Cat Containment Policy - LGA wide'. Find
the draft policy, and info on how to make a submission on it, at https://yourvoice.qprc.nsw.gov.au/draft-cat-containment-policy-lga-wide.
The proposed changes with the new policy include that any cats born on or after 1 January 2025 will need to be contained from 1 July 2025, and from 1 July 2026 all cats in the QPRC LGA will need to be contained. 'These dates are to allow
time to prepare for containing your cats for those who live in new cat containment areas.'
Responses to the draft policy can be submitted up to 9 October.
If you have an interest in the native wildlife of this area, please consider putting in a submission.
With thanks - David
