DeWitt County's Animal Control facility has battled issues with being overpopulated for quite some time, but that appears to be changing.

At Thursday night's Public Safety Committee meeting, Animal Control Administrator Grace Moore reported currently they have just seven dogs and four cats. 

Moore does not expect the low of four cats to stay that way, as they often get an influx of kittens each spring. 

State's Attorney Dan Markwell and ShelterLuv have come to an agreement that will allow the County to utilize the service for Animal Control, and we'll have more on that in the days following the March County Board meeting from the Hart Media Group.
