Changes to the City's Animal Control Bylaw to allow no more than three (3) cats at any property in Trail took effect on June 22, 2015. If you own more than 3 cats as of this date, please know that they may remain in your care; however, as the number of cats you own decreases naturally over time, you may not replace cats that would bring the number to more than 3.
The Animal Control Bylaw contains provisions prohibiting the keep of horses, cattle, sheep, goats, swine, fowl and poultry in the Municipality.
