Tell Congress: Pass the CATS Act!

Tell Congress: Pass the Cats Act!

The CATS Act will permanently ban the Dept. of Veterans Affairs from experimenting on kittens.

WHY IT MATTERS:

The Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA) has wasted over $11 million of your tax money to purchase and kill kittens in painful spine-severing, constipation, and live brain removal experiments. We shut down the VA's Los Angeles kitten lab, but experiments are still taking place in its Louisville and Cleveland laboratories.

The CATS Act will force the VA to close these labs, and make it illegal for the agency to test on another kitten ever again.

As a constituent, I urge you to cosponsor the bipartisan Cat Abuse in Testing Stops (CATS) Act (HR 8867).

The CATS Act would permanently end painful and wasteful taxpayer-funded experiments on cats and kittens at the Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA).

I was troubled to learn from White Coat Waste Project (WCW) that since at least 2015, the VA has wasted over $8 million tax dollars to torture and kill kittens as young as six months old in disturbing constipation, sleep, and spinal cord experiments.

Like a majority of Americans, I oppose my tax dollars being spent on this cruel and inefficient testing.

Last year, Congress enacted legislation directing the VA to phase-out these tests by 2025, but legislative action is needed now to stop this waste and abuse. The VA should be focusing its limited resources on modern research and providing quality care to veterans, not on outdated, inefficient and cruel cat experiments.

Please support the CATS Act to end the VA’s wasteful taxpayer-funded kitten experiments.
