KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 21): A Chihuahua and three pedigree cats were “seized” by the Selayang Municipal Council (MPS) from apartments in Taman Bidara, Batu Caves, following complaints from irritated residents, reported The Star recently.
“On receiving the complaints, MPS carried out an investigation and recorded feedback from other neighbours.
“Based on the input, we found that residents were upset with the Chihuahua’s incessant barking while the cats were allowed to roam the corridors,” MPS councillor Mohd Kassim Packiry told the English daily.
According to the report, Mohd Kassim said the dog and three cats were seized as residents in high-rises were not permitted to keep pets in their apartments.
“In the first week of June, MPS gave verbal warnings. Some owners relocated their pets while others did not heed MPS’ advise.
“The council was forced to issue six notices on the second week of June to the pet owners under Section 82 (11) of the Local Government Act 1976,” he revealed.
