Description

Responding to the generic statement on Clawson's web site regarding Raccoons, Woodchucks, Skunks, Opossums as follows:

The Division will respond to raccoons, bats or skunks inside the living quarters. Oakland County will not respond to nuisance wildlife nesting in attics or crawl spaces.

What about live trapped animals? Ask my neighbor, Councilman Airriess. He has had them running through his yard. I'm certain he is glad they are gone. This year I've live trapped and relocated 3 Raccoons, 9 Opossums, 8 Woodchucks (that can and will destroy the foundation of a house in a few days), and FERAL CATS in the past. I've trapped two "wild cats" that were living on what wildlife they could catch. I took them to the Humane Society on Auburn Road near Adams and had to pay $25 each to get rid of a scumbag neighbor's problem. They were unadoptable because of their wildness. I've laid it all out for you but I'd like to see some responsibility being taken by the City of Clawson for their disposal. How about some reimbursement for mileage at $0.54 per mile for taking the others to South Blvd and Crooks for humane release? Or $50 for the cats? Or should I just relocate them to north Clawson?
