SOUTHPORT, N.C. (AP) - There's a cat fight going on in Southport.
It's hard to get around the waterfront town without seeing a cat, but some residents say they're seeing too many and they say the animals are becoming a nuisance and possibly a health concern.
After complaints about the cats flooded city hall, City Attorney Mike Isenberg drafted a proposed ordinance amendment, most of which was taken from Brunswick County's rules. The ordinance includes a ban on feeding feral cats and a requirement to collar and register pets.
But after a roomful of angry cat lovers crowded the board of aldermen's meeting room, they decided to table the issue until the new board is sworn in Dec. 13.
