What’s Up South Texas!: Two women give the name ‘cat lady’ a new, productive meaning
San Antonio – Two ladies living at the Army Residence Community are giving the name “cat lady” a whole new and productive meaning.
They trap, spay and neuter neighborhood cats, strays, and feral cats before releasing them back into the community.
Jane Mashburn and Mary Gustine started their campus’s cat program back in 2018.

Two new animal ordinances that took effect Jan. 1 pertain to cats and dogs. One addresses puppy and kitten sales, the other the feeding of feral cats.
This past year, city leaders approved an ordinance that requires pet stores to only sell rescued dogs and cats, not dogs and cats from breeders. The ordinance does not ban retailers from selling pets, but it requires those dogs and cats to come from “a city or county animal shelter, an animal control agency, or an animal rescue organization licensed by the department,” according to the ordinance.
