The Animal Health Bill
New animal health program adds pet food fees in DC
Care for Animals Amendment Act of 2025
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would fund vet services and pet education, but would also charge owners a fee for pet food registration.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Pet lovers could get more free spay services and school lessons, yet they may have to pay a new registration fee, so they should watch the bill now.
