About This Website
The information on animal care laws provided through this website was
collected by Citizens for Animal Protection Inc., a humane organization
founded in Kansas by Ann Martin. For nearly half a century she worked
tirelessly to foster humane care for animals through better legislation and
enforcement.
Citizens for Animal Protection disbanded at the beginning of 2011. To ensure
that its legacy will go on, Spay & Neuter Kansas City is continuing to make
this information available to concerned citizens and to elected and
appointed officials, giving them the resources they need to help animals
receive humane care and treatment. Included are federal statutes plus state
and local laws from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois.
