Also, since my cats are indoor, they don't wear collars. So they don't wear their licenses. I agree--it would be nice if licenses were free!

I agree–it would be nice if licenses were free!

I think that the cat licence provides valuable information for identification . I do not think the micro chip covers in the event that the cat is found by someone that is willing to call an agency like the humane society to find out where the cat belongs. I would be willing to make a donation to any agency or group that would carry out such a program, it could even be national. Thanks I personally think that cat licence’s should be free of charge.

If the money was being put to good use to help animals in Toronto, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. But some of it is apparently being wasted.

Ontario is a joke to the rest of Canada - I know this because a good friend of mine travels to every province on business and he hears the same thing everywhere. They consider people in Toronto to be morons, and with good reason. Some kid knocks on my door while I'm at work and peeks inside my window looking for animals...or maybe what kind of tv and stereo I have...and rats me out so I can pay a fee for an indoor cat. Meanwhile, my next door neighbour gets his car stolen - only reason it was found was because of an unpaid parking ticked that arrived at his door a month later with the address of where it was dumped. Nice to know that taxpayer money is being used so efficiently. It really boils my blood when nitwits (yeah, I'm looking at you Mark) blindly swallow every single drop of pre-packaged diarrhea that's given to them. It cripples the rest of us with more than two active brain cells to rub together - apparently, we're the minority now. A pet license should be a CHOICE. But then again, this is Ontario, where big brother makes those decisions for us. The city of Toronto has gotten completly retaded.

Therefore, they're already covered if they get out. I see no reason why anyone should have to pay an annual license fee for spayed/neutered, microchipped, indoor pets.
