Just a reminder … All Somerville cat owners MUST get a new or renewed cat license during the month of June. Licenses can be obtained in-person at Somerville Borough Hall, 25 West End Avenue, or through the mail.
A pet license application can be found at www.somervillenj.org (click on “Departments” tab, click on “Clerk/Administrator” and click on “Clerk’s Office Forms”).
The license fee is $11.00 for neutered cats or $14.00 for non-neutered cats. A NEW LICENSE will only be issued with proof of rabies vaccination and neuter (if applicable).
RENEWAL of an existing license will require proof of new rabies vaccination if the current rabies certificate has expired during the previous licensing year.
If you pay by check or money order, please make payable to “Borough of Somerville”.
You can renew and pay on-line by going to the link below:

Your license and tag will be mailed to your home. If necessary, proof of neutering and/or new rabies certificate can be faxed or emailed to Marcie Tyson prior to the on-line payment. The fax number is (908) 725-6218. Marcie’s email is mtyson@somervillenj.org.
If you renew a cat license after June 30 the late fees are $3.00 in July AND an additional $1.00 for each month thereafter. There will be NO free rabies vaccination clinic in Somerville this June.
