City of Maribyrnong - Maribyrnong's dusk-to-dawn cat curfew is in effect from 7pm to 7am.

What happened

City of Maribyrnong's cat curfew is now in effect, requiring cats to be contained on their owner's property from 7pm to 7am.

Council information says education and support come first, followed by traps and fines for ongoing non-compliance.

Why it matters

The curfew creates after-hours compliance questions for residents, animal-management staff and teams handling repeat roaming reports.

What to watch

The operational test is how containment advice, trap requests, field observations and fine reviews are recorded as the curfew settles in.
