Description: Mike’s been an integal part of Massachusetts' animal welfare efforts for 22 years.  He has extensive experience managing situations where community cats — and potentially their caretakers — have been exposed to rabies, and recounts several challenging situations he’s faced, including one where an entire colony needed to be quarantined for six months after exposure to a rabid raccoon. As a result, he’s a huge proponent of microchipping community cats so that their vaccination information can be accessed in necessary situations. He’s also trying to get animal control officers more engaged in their town’s TNR efforts:  “they should be learning from the people in the community doing the work.”   For more information please visit mass.gov.
