Cats are much-loved companions, providing joy, comfort and support to their owners. However, they can also be a nuisance to neighbours, can kill native animals and can carry toxoplasmosis that may infect people, livestock and native mammals.
Cat Survey
Tasman Council is collaborating with Ten Lives through TassieCat on a Cat Management Community Project aimed at improving cat welfare and reducing the negative impacts of cats on residents and local wildlife in the Tasman Municipality.
The first part is community consultation with a survey of people in the Nubeena and White Beach area. Survey data will give insight as to how many people own cats, if residents are impacted by other people’s cats or by stray or feral cats, and if there are any barriers to better management of cats.
The survey is only for Nubeena and White Beach. Information from the survey will enable cat management strategies to be developed for the whole municipality.
