(A) Keep vaccinations up-to-date for all dogs, cats, and ferrets. This requirement is important not only to keep pets from getting rabies but also to provide a barrier of protection if a pet is bitten by a rabid wild animal.
(B) Keep pets under direct supervision so they do not come in contact with wild animals. If a pet is bitten by a wild animal, seek veterinary assistance for the animal immediately.
(C) Call the local animal control officer to remove any stray animals from the neighborhood. They may be unvaccinated and could be infected by the disease.
(D) Spay or neuter pets to help reduce the number of unwanted pets that may not be properly cared for or regularly vaccinated.
