Tucson FAQ
Can a neighbor make me keep my cat indoors?
Generally no, because Tucson allows free-roaming cats. Repeated, documented property damage or harassment can support a civil nuisance claim, but routine roaming is not itself a code violation.
What does PACC do with stray cats?
Healthy adult community cats often enter the trap-neuter-return program and are returned to their original location after sterilization. Friendly cats and kittens may be routed to adoption instead.
