Residents have 2 small dogs, resorts to kicking cage and grabbing hard enough to harm in response to barking. In addition, I suspect they have the animals use the bathroom in their cage, as multiple bags of dog poop have been left outside their door.

DEAD Possum (3 or 4 days now) on grass between the multi-use pathway and High Street between Arden and Queens Way. Thursday when first reported it was in High St (quite large), Friday when next reported it had been moved by the buzzards to partly on the pathway. Today someone has used a long stick (if you are looking to finally pick it up, you will see it next to the long stick) to move it away from where the children view it as they walk to school. Is there nothing in the City's ordinances to speed up having dead animals picked up? This seems like a health hazard and it quite loathsome to see.

There is a dead possum on High Street between Arden and Queens Way. Last time I called Animal Control concerning a similar issue no one came to assist, so I am hopeful that this is a better way to get this addressed.
