A feral cat is one that lives outdoors and avoids human contact. Stray cats also live outdoors but may have at one point been owned and lived inside, and are domesticated. Roaming cats can include owned cats that are loose as well as stray and feral cats.

The current bylaw states that cats must be confined to an owner’s property. We want to hear Calgarians' expectations of cats and the rules surrounding them in Calgary.
