Application

• The application form for NEW licenses is available at www.somervillenj.org/petlicense.
• If you are renewing your cat’s license, you don't need to complete an application form – your pet’s information is already in the licensing program.

• 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, only if the vaccination expired during the previous license year.
