Stubbs is now reportedly breathing on his own after relying on a chest tube for a couple of days.
Ms Stec, owner of a general store in the small town, said she planned to file a police report, adding that the dog "needs to go away".
Stubbs was discovered among a box of kittens in 1997, and was named after his lack of tail.
He ascended to power shortly afterwards when the town's 800 inhabitants did not like the candidates in a mayoral election
and encouraged enough people to elect the feline instead.
Although his position is honorary, Stubbs' popularity has grown over the years, earning him national fame and subsequent visits from tourists.
