Animal licences

If you own a cat or a dog in Airdrie, you are required to purchase an animal licence. If your pet is ever lost, having a licence will help us get them back to you as soon as possible.

Cats and dogs over three months of age require a licence. Licences are valid for one year from the date of purchase and must be renewed annually.
