Henderson HMC Title 6 requires cats to be licensed, vaccinated against rabies, and prohibits owners from allowing cats to become public nuisances, with community cat and trap-neuter-return programs operated through Henderson Animal Care partners.
Cats four months or older must be licensed annually through Henderson Animal Care, with proof of current rabies vaccination from a licensed Nevada veterinarian. Discounted licenses apply for spayed or neutered cats. Owners must prevent cats from damaging neighboring property, defecating in others yards, or roaming in nuisance numbers. Microchipping is encouraged for return-to-owner. Henderson supports trap-neuter-return for managed community cat colonies through partner rescues. Stray cats may be impounded; owners pay redemption and boarding fees. Repeat nuisance complaints can lead to citations and required confinement plans.
Unlicensed cats incur fines around 50 to 100 dollars per animal. Nuisance citations may reach 250 dollars per incident, plus impound and daily boarding fees if Animal Care takes custody.
