LA County Title 10.32 covers cat care and Title 10.20.060 mandates rabies vaccination for cats over four months. DACC supports trap-neuter-return for managed feral colonies; outdoor cats remain owners' responsibility for damage and wildlife harm.
In unincorporated LA County and DACC contract cities, LACO Title 10.32 sets cat-specific care duties and Title 10.20.060 requires rabies vaccination for cats over four months once vaccine is administered statewide. DACC operates a community-cat / TNR framework: feral cats are trapped, sterilized, vaccinated, ear-tipped, and returned to managed colonies. There is no leash requirement for cats, but owners remain liable for nuisance, property damage, and wildlife predation. Indiscriminate feeding that attracts coyotes or rodents can be cited under Title 10.84.010 wildlife-feeding rules.
Citations issue for unvaccinated cats over four months, abandoning cats, or nuisance feeding. Fines begin near one hundred dollars and escalate; chronic offenders face abatement orders and possible misdemeanor referrals.
