2022-APHIS-00624-F Theis, Cecelia - You have a contract with NASA to do predator removal at 

Moffett Airforce Base in California. The contract states 

that all domestic cats are to be taken, within 12 hours, to

trapper is to report to NASA and to the veterinarian - 

information on the cat including age, sex, where trapped. 

I am seeking all communication between USDA and the 

Veterinarian Office as well as all communication between 

USDA and NASA regarding the cats taken to the 

veterinarian office. I am attaching the contract and the

to the veterinarian office is intended for. I also seek any 

communication received from the veterinarian, including 

invoices, for the cats that were delivered to the vet by the 

USDA employee. I also seek any communications from 

USDA to Ames Research laboratory that has the word cat 

in it or that has the word testing animals that were 

trapped at Moffett or Moffatt or any NASA property in 

the state of California. I also seek any breakdown of

must deliver the cat(s) within a 12 hour time frame. Any 

compensation records or timesheets that show entries 

for taking the cats to the veterinarian are also requested.

2022-APHIS-00916-F

- Hello, On Tuesday, November 16, 2021 at 6:10 pm, I filed 

a complaint for a dog breeder on the USDA APHIS 

website. The breeder we filed a complaint on is named 

Bonnie Jane Miller of 7455 SE 145th St, Summerfield, 

Florida 34491. Due to the quantity of dogs and the 

neglect we witnessed, we want to make sure there was 

action taken for our complaint. We'd like to see if an 

inspection officer made an inspection and what the 

results were. We are very concerned for the well being of 

the dogs. Thank you for your time, Chelsea Amend

the ASPCA.s commercial interest. We would be happy to 

receive these records in electronic format if it would be 

convenient for you. All documents can be sent to
