Summary
Edmond caps household pets at four dogs and four cats over six months old, set out in separate sections of the animal code and enforced by animal welfare officers and Municipal Court.
§ 7.10.050: "It shall be unlawful to keep or harbor more than four (4) cats over the age of six months." § 7.12.070: "It shall be unlawful to keep or harbor more than four (4) dogs over the age of six months."

Full Breakdown
City Code § 7.12.070 makes it unlawful to keep or harbor more than four dogs over six months old, and § 7.10.050 sets the same four-animal cap for cats over six months. Both limits apply per residence regardless of breed or size, alongside the vaccination and at-large rules elsewhere in Chapters 7.10 and 7.12. There's no separate multi-pet permit process here: exceeding either cap is itself the violation, distinct from the four-dog and four-cat caps that apply on top of any lawful livestock kept on larger lots.
Violations & Fines
Keeping a fifth dog or fifth cat over six months old violates §§ 7.10.050/7.12.070; the Municipal Court can fine the owner, and animal welfare officers may investigate on complaint.
