(A) A Trap-Neuter-Return Program will be developed by LMAS to address the issues presented by feral and other community cats. To that end it recognizes that there are caretakers of community cats.
(B) A Trap-Neuter-Return Program will permit LMAS (or a designee of LMAS) to engage in the trapping of community cats for the purpose of sterilization, vaccination, ear-tipping for easy identification, and any providing of other necessary medical care for community cats. LMAS may work with its designee to implement and/or administer the LMAS's Trap-Neuter-Return Program.
(C) A caretaker providing care for community cat(s) may offer certain necessities on a regular/ongoing basis, including, but not limited to, proper nutrition of food and water as well as medical care as needed. If medical care is unavailable or too expensive, a caregiver should contact LMAS for assistance to prevent the suffering of a community cat.
(D) If the requirements identified in subsection (C) are met, the caretaker is exempt from licensing and other provisions of this chapter that apply to owned cats.
