PEMBERTON TWP., NJ – Animal Control Officers are actively engaged in the task of picking up trapped cats in the township. The process follows a first-come, first-served list for locations where township traps are designated.

Residents are advised not to trap cats independently. The shelter has limitations on the number of cats they can accept each week.

Individuals attempting to trap cats must obtain permission from the shelter to confirm space availability. Those who trap without authorization will be responsible for transporting the cats and paying any associated surrender fees.

For inquiries, the Animal Control Officers can be reached at (609) 723-8300.

Animal control urges cooperation among residents to ensure effective management of the cat population in the township.

The initiative aims to address the local cat overpopulation issue responsibly, maintaining community health and wellbeing.
