Many people believe that indoor cats and dogs do not need to be vaccinated for rabies. This is not true. North Westport law requires that all cats and dogs be vaccinated for rabies. Rabies is a deadly disease which affects all mammals, including humans.
While indoor animals may not seem to be at risk we have seen numerous instances where an animal gets outside and gets into a fight, a bat gets into the house, etc. If your pet is not vaccinated for rabies and it is bitten or kills a wild animal it could be exposed to rabies which is deadly if the pet has not been vaccinated. In some situations the law may require quarantine or even euthanasia of an animal if they are not currently rabies vaccinated. Please, do not let your pet be at risk.
