We asked our supporters in Utah recently to take action against H.B. 210, a dangerous bill that would have repealed the protections afforded to all cats by these laws and allowed cats to be shot and killed. Yesterday, following a major public outcry, the deadly language was struck from this bill.
In defeating this bill as originally written, we have won an important victory in protecting all cats of Utah. Alley Cat Allies continues to monitor legislation relating to cats, including Utah’s S.B. 57, a recently-introduced bill which we are working on to ensure has the best language to serve the needs of cats. Keep an eye out for updates on this bill in the near future.
Thank you for advocating on behalf of cats!
