Support Tax Deduction For Pet Care Expenses

Posted on Saturday, 3 of October , 2009 at 6:47 am

Families all over the country have been forced to give up their pets because of financial hardship.

 

H.R. 3501, the Humanity and Pets Partnered Through the Years, known as the HAPPY Act, would help Americans provide their pets with the medical attention and quality of life they deserve by making up to $3,500 of qualifying pet care expenses, including veterinary care costs, tax-deductible.

 

Qualified pet care expenses” include veterinary care costs for individuals who care for legally owned, domesticated live animals.

 

This way, pets get to remain in their loving homes and don’t wind up on the streets or in the already overburdened shelter system.

 

Sign the petition and tell a friend.
