Cat licensing, roaming, and colony rules are set by your municipality, not by Camden County. State law requires rabies vaccination and some towns license cats and manage TNR feral-cat colonies locally.
New Jersey requires dogs to be licensed statewide, but cat licensing is a municipal option, and many Camden County towns require it plus proof of rabies vaccination. There is no statewide cat leash or roaming law; free-roaming and feral-cat management, including trap-neuter-return colony registration, is handled by each municipality's ordinance and its animal-control provider. Rabies vaccination follows the state's recognized durations of immunity. If you feed or manage feral cats, check whether your town requires colony caretaker registration. The county's role is limited to regional rabies-control coordination and health services.
Failure to license a cat where required, or unregistered colony feeding, is a municipal ordinance violation with fines set by local code.
