passed their final inspection today. 15 seems to be a magic
number, because even tho i have 23 at the moment, she said when she
was here, "you only have 15, right?" tho she knew the exact number 3
weeks ago.

will go back and read everyone's suggestions when i get a chance; just
wanted to let you know that i have a good idea of what you're feeling

I think that that is a very argument that
I am going to make – identify the definition of “nuisance” –
and convince that “having more animals” are not necessarily
equivalent of nuisance – especially if they are all indoor kept and well
taken care of.

Unfortunately from a
legal standpoint it is looked at as a "public health nuisance" when
one has more than the generally accepted amount of animals (which differs from
area to area).  It does not make sense to me but considering
"fanimals" (my own term for animals who are family) are classified as
property it is the way the law looks at them, at least here in Pennsylvania.

I truly think these
ordinances are unconstitutional.  How can it be illegal for you to own as
many pets as you like as long as you are taking good care of them and are not
disturbing anyone.  Unfortunately, it takes so much money to battle these
things in court.

I do have a place that I can take my cats temporarily - I just have to

I have never heard of anyone I know personally dealing
with what you are dealing with, so I don't know for
sure, but if I had to guess, I would think they would
give you like 30 days to find homes for however many
over the number they allow you. Then, at the end of
30 days, they will probably schedule an appointment to
come by to do a head count. After that, I bet they
don't bother you much and you can bring any kitties
back that kind people have taken in for you for a
short time so that you can pass the head count. I
hope you have family or good friends nearby that will
help you if it comes to that. Plus, in the future,
you don't have to answer the door to anyone from
animal control if you think they are coming to do a
head count again. I doubt they will hassle you
though. I wouldn't worry about all this just yet
though Hideyo, because you will worry yourself sick. 
And if they end up allowing you to have your cats,
then you will have worried for no reason. How in the
world did this all happen in the first place? Did
someone complain about your cats?

When I moved once, in the days with only
one cat, I had three burly moving men who just moved thru the apt quickly and
quietly.  I thought cat had gone into the closet to hide but all of a
sudden the biggest of the moving men came running over to me pleading to get
the cat from under the bed as he was afraid of her!

in the northeast a year or two ago, the law came in without warning and took 
everyone of his personal and rescue kitties.  By the time he had a lawyer 
to try to get his kitties back, most had been euthed.  Yes, horror story, 
which is why it has stayed with me a long time.  I was not there nor know 
him personally.  From what he said and having read his posts (different 
list) he seemed like a genuine animal caring person.  I realize this will 
intensify your worry and sleeplessness, I am so sorry, but you do have to 
do whatever you can to save your babies.  The real wrath of it is people 
like us who have over the city limit of animals but are devoted caretakers get 
in trouble but people who have even only one pet, neglected and abused, do not 
get caught and the animal suffers.  It really makes me angry.   
Prayers and hugs for you and your babies to be safe.  Wish I could do 
something more for you.

Good luck, Hideyo! If you have not already, you should call the Animal 
Legal Defense Fund in CA (they have a website with contact info) and ask for a 
referral to a pro bono attorney in HI to help you at your hearing.

Hideyo,
Athena and Artemis are about 6 months now - but they are still kittens.
My vet is on temporary leave (pregnancy) during November, but I hope to
have her spay the girls - probably just after Xmas since I have the week
between Xmas/NewYears off from work.  I really need to get new pics...
They're sooo cute.

I don't remember - I think I just went in and described what I wanted.  Comes in different size rolls and it may have been with the roll-up bamboo -type shades or close by.  That is what I got at the same time.  It has been over a year -- the city code people cited my carport for having things on it that weren't designed to go outdoors - like a couple of bookcases.   I was lucky that they didn't walk the whole carport and look in the den windows - and see WAY over the allowed limit of cats.  So I got that plastic stuff and put it over all my den windows - but FAST!Hideyo Yamamoto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Hi Hideyo,

I am sorry to hear about your city ordinance
troubles.
 I agree with Kerry that having someone else there
as
an advocate for the care you are providing is a
smart
idea.  Also, be prepared to disprove with proof the
very reasons they are having you in for a hearing in
the first place (ie. unsanitary conditions,
neighborhood disturbance, whatever their reasons may

is
the very reason I hope to one day have some land out
in the country.  The city government won't be able
to
tell me what to do with my life or my furballs.  I
will also say prayers for Ginger to begin eating
better again.  I am sorry for your troubles and I
hope
that things start looking up again.  In the

don't let them get you down.  Keep going strong.

RE: Need all your prayers - please!!

2005-11-07 Thread Hideyo Yamamoto
Someone anonymously reported me that I have many cats - not any type of
complains regarding that.. as my cats are all indoors, they don't bother
my neighbors or anything.. it's almost like "personal" thing against me
and nothing to do with my animals and that's how I started.  And
actually, I was already given a permit from the city last year - so when
the city contacted me, I told them that I already have a permit - then,
they couldn't find the paper work and the officer who gave me a permit
no longer is the officer and they told me that he did not follow the
correct process (not following the correct ordinance as to exactly how
many cats I have) so I have to re-do this all over again.

I do have a place that I can take my cats temporarily - I just have to
do a lot of transporting.. but I am prepared to do so anyway.  It just
does not make sense to me logically.. my cats and I are not bothering
anyone... and cats are treated well.. so why do they care??? If you know
what I mean.. we don't remove children from a family just because they
have too many children..

I have never heard of anyone I know personally dealing

give you like 30 days to find homes for however many
over the number they allow you.  Then, at the end of
30 days, they will probably schedule an appointment to
come by to do a head count.  After that, I bet they
don't bother you much and you can bring any kitties
back that kind people have taken in for you for a
short time so that you can pass the head count.  I
hope you have family or good friends nearby that will
help you if it comes to that.  Plus, in the future,
you don't have to answer the door to anyone from
animal control if you think they are coming to do a
head count again.  I doubt they will hassle you
though.  I wouldn't worry about all this just yet
though Hideyo, because you will worry yourself sick. 
And if they end up allowing you to have your cats,

other homes.  But if it was me, and I hope I don't

That’s a good idea – I am not
a good writer… but I have an idea, and Greg is a lawyer and writes really
well.. so maybe he can edit it … I have 5 days to request a hearing from
this Wednesdays that’s when an office will bring me all the paper work I
need to request a hearing, but I am not sure how long before the hearing..  I
will write to ALDF to see if they have any suggestions.

Hideyo,
The suggestions given sound good, being prepared with pictures of your habitat,
receipts for medical and housing costs etc.  Could you write up some sort
of acknowledgment of your general good deeds in caring for the cats?  Get
as many signatures on it as possible, vets, neighbors, etc.  How much time
do you have before the hearing?  I know the folks on this list would be
willing to sign too, if we can figure out how to do that logistically.  I
know from stories you've posted on the list that you've run across some
influential people while doing rescue work, government officials, media people,
get their signatures and short statements about who you are and what you do
too.  Some sound legal advice is in order as well, here's the link to
ALDF, (Animal Legal Defense Fund).  Write or call them and tell them
what's going on and ask how they can help.  They have attorneys that do
pro bono work for good folks like you.
http://www.aldf.org/

Blessings and prayers for you, your situation and for sweet little
Ginger.  She's been refusing to eat for what seems like a long time now,
maybe you had better get her into the vet, just in case they can figure out
why.

Hi, everyone – I am in a situations where I

I mentioned to you a couple of weeks ago, where the
animal control came over regarding having the multiple cats at my house.
 Well, based on the current ordinance, I could only have 5 animals even
with a permit (they have a very stupid way to calculate it) – so, now I
have to go to a hearing.  According to the city attorney, unless my
neighbors has any objections (which no one does), they usually allow you to
have up to 15 animals  I have to now go to a hearing and present my case
– everyone, please pray that everything will go well and they won’t
take my babies away from me!  I don’t know what I would do without
them!

 

Also, Ginger is still not eating like she is supposed
to – she sipped on Liver shake a bit, but not much, so I am still force
feeding… she does not act like she is sick at all, which is blessing
– I might have to take her for a blood work if she does not get her appetite
back to see if anything is going on inside of her.. please pray that she will
gain her appetite back very very soon! 

 

Again, thank you for all your support!

Hideyo,
The suggestions given sound good, being prepared with pictures of your
habitat, receipts for medical and housing costs etc.  Could you write
up some sort of acknowledgment of your general good deeds in caring for
the cats?  Get as many signatures on it as possible, vets, neighbors,
etc.  How much time do you have before the hearing?  I know the folks
on this list would be willing to sign too, if we can figure out how to
do that logistically.  I know from stories you've posted on the list
that you've run across some influential people while doing rescue work,
government officials, media people, get their signatures and short
statements about who you are and what you do too.  Some sound legal
advice is in order as well, here's the link to ALDF, (Animal Legal
Defense Fund).  Write or call them and tell them what's going on and
ask how they can help.  They have attorneys that do pro bono work for
good folks like you.
http://www.aldf.org/

Blessings and prayers for you, your situation and for sweet little
Ginger.  She's been refusing to eat for what seems like a long time
now, maybe you had better get her into the vet, just in case they can
figure out why.

  Hi, everyone – I am in a
situations where I need all your
prayers!
  I mentioned to you a
couple of weeks ago, where the animal control
came over regarding having the multiple cats at my house.  Well, based
on the current
ordinance, I could only have 5 animals even with a permit (they have a
very stupid
way to calculate it) – so, now I have to go to a hearing.  According to
the
city attorney, unless my neighbors has any objections (which no one
does), they
usually allow you to have up to 15 animals  I have to now go to a
hearing and
present my case – everyone, please pray that everything will go well
and they
won’t take my babies away from me!  I don’t know what I would do
without
them!
   
  Also, Ginger is still not

Ah, yes, good idea. Very good idea. Pix of building, indoors and out,
plus cats shown in the building, plus closeups of cats to show how well
they are. Plus receipts of all the meds you buy including homeopathic.
Hideyo, no one cares for cats better than you---I hope some of those
people sitting in "judgment" have a cat or two---you can be sure they
will be secretly thinking, "wow, this woman takes far, far better care
of/spends far more $$ on her cats than I do". But they'll never tell you
that.

Hi Hideyo,

I am sorry to hear about your city ordinance troubles.
 I agree with Kerry that having someone else there as
an advocate for the care you are providing is a smart
idea.  Also, be prepared to disprove with proof the
very reasons they are having you in for a hearing in
the first place (ie. unsanitary conditions,
neighborhood disturbance, whatever their reasons may
be).  Be well prepared, even overly prepared.  This is
the very reason I hope to one day have some land out
in the country.  The city government won't be able to
tell me what to do with my life or my furballs.  I
will also say prayers for Ginger to begin eating
better again.  I am sorry for your troubles and I hope
that things start looking up again.  In the meantime,
don't let them get you down.  Keep going strong.

Hi Hideyo,

I am sorry to hear about your city ordinance troubles.
 I agree with Kerry that having someone else there as
an advocate for the care you are providing is a smart
idea.  Also, be prepared to disprove with proof the
very reasons they are having you in for a hearing in
the first place (ie. unsanitary conditions,
neighborhood disturbance, whatever their reasons may
be).  Be well prepared, even overly prepared.  This is
the very reason I hope to one day have some land out
in the country.  The city government won't be able to
tell me what to do with my life or my furballs.  I
will also say prayers for Ginger to begin eating
better again.  I am sorry for your troubles and I hope
that things start looking up again.  In the meantime,
don't let them get you down.  Keep going strong.

:)

There is a case in PA, where the city gave a lady a citation for having
like 25 to 35 cats and she actually appealed to the PA state court and
actually the state court ruled against the city's ruling saying that,
"having numerous number of cats itself merely do not prove the presence
of "nuisance", - should I bring a stuff like that??? What other factual
information should I bring??

Thank you, I have a letter from my ex-vet who used to care for all my
cats for the past 10 years and she is actually overseeing now the vet
section at the animal control division, which I hope to build
creditability as the letter says how responsible and caring I am for all
my animals.

Different officers came to inspect my place a few times and they were
all very impressed with the set up (I spent $45,000 a couple of years
ago and built facility for my cats in addition to my main house -
windows everywhere, sky lights, outside enclosures.. etc.. and happy how
well all my animals are taken care of.. but yes I will prepare for any
possible ways for them to complain.

I am also going to ask someone I know through rescuing.. she is with
Animal protection service of my state and she has a lot of credibility
with animal control.. so.. we will see.. I am still very nervous because
they CAN take them away from me..

You can be sure everyone on this list will

towards animals in need--to win the day.





Can you have others there, like a
vet, or an animal advocate, to speak as well in support of you?
(You care for more than 15 cats, so I'm presuming you are fighting to keep all
of them.)





When is the hearing?





Praying for Ginger regaining her appetite
too. She sure is an amazing kitty if she's behaving normally is every
other way.  





Bless you Hideyo for everything you do for
those that can't speak for themselves.





much love and support, Kerry
