Berlin (dpa / bb) - Berlin animal owners may no longer allow reproductive male and female cats to roam freely in the future, according to a report in the "Bild" newspaper.

This emerges from a draft ordinance by Justice Senator Dirk Behrendt (Greens), as the newspaper reports.

Accordingly, the number of feral cats should not be increased, as it was said.

It is estimated that there are 10,000 stray cats in the city, the newspaper continues.

In the future, according to the report, cats will no longer be able to go outside uncontrollably from the age of five months. Animals that have been neutered or neutered are allowed to leave the house if they are tagged with a microchip and the animal is registered with a private pet register. According to the “Bild” report, the owner should bear all costs.
