Losing your home shouldn’t mean losing your pet, too.

The Providing for Unhoused People with Pets (PUPP) Act wants to keep people with their pets by making emergency shelters pet-friendly.

Natural disasters… House fires… Financial hardship… No matter the circumstances, access to emergency housing is a lifeline. But if shelters don’t allow pets, unhoused people are forced to make an impossible decision: shelter or their beloved companion animal.

The PUPP Act is a bipartisan Congressional bill that would create a grant program to provide emergency shelters with funds to support clients with pets. Funds can be used to retrofit facilities to better accommodate pets, provide basic veterinary services and more – all with the aim of removing unnecessary barriers to emergency housing.

This bill has stalled twice in Congress already. Every day the PUPP Act goes unsigned is another heartbreak for an animal and their owner. Add your name NOW and help make shelters pet-friendly!
