New pet help :)

[dj-daeva.livejournal.com]

Hi there. I went to Easter dinner with my boyfriend's family yesterday and came home with a very sweet kitty addition to our family :)

We rescued an abandoned kitty that my boyfriend's sister was feeding and taking care of. He was apparently left out in the woods with 2 other cats (who she was also seeking a home for).

Anyway, I've made a vet's appt for him tomorrow at Porter Square Veterinary, but was curious as to the whole licensing thing. I looked on the City of Somerville page, but couldn't find anything and the search web page isn't loading for me.

Do I need to register/license him through the city? I googled and could only find information on neighboring cities.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Yep. You get a rabies tag to put on cats' collars, but there isn't any license.

Awesome, thank you! :)

some landlords will also ask for proof of the cat being spayed/neutered, so hang onto the receipt or whatever when you get that done.
