My animals are my world, so when I discovered that hundreds of companies are still testing pesticides, chemicals, and other horrible things on dogs and cats across the United States in 2026, I knew I had to do something about it. Every single year, countless innocent animals are subjected to inhumane experiments using pesticides, chemicals, drugs and other horrible things. More than 40,000 dogs and more than 13,000 cats are tested on every single year, enduring unimaginable suffering and harm. I truly thought there was no way this was possible, but it's true, and it must stop.

This poor dog was secretly photographed in a testing facility in Michigan.

This poor cat's skull was drilled into.

Animal testing is a cruel and outdated practice, especially when it involves our beloved pets. Dogs and cats, considered as family members by millions of Americans, deserve to live without fear, pain, or exploitation. It is time for us to take a stand and demand immediate legislative changes to end this abhorrent practice. Our pets are not test subjects, and they should not suffer for our benefit.

Alternative testing methods are available and are more humane and scientifically valid. With advancements in technology, we no longer need to rely on animal testing to ensure product safety. For example, in vitro testing and computer modeling are efficient, effective, and humane alternatives. These methods not only prevent unnecessary animal suffering but are also often more reliable predictors of human response.

This dog was being tested with pesticides.

And these images are the ones we know about. It's scary to think about what we're not seeing behind those facility walls.

We call upon the United States Congress and regulatory agencies to ban the use of dogs and cats in testing and research projects. Companies must be held accountable and encouraged to adopt cruelty-free models.

Please join me in urging our lawmakers to protect our pets from becoming victims of laboratory testing. Your signature can make a difference in ending the unjust suffering of these innocent animals. Sign the petition to demand change today. Please HELP. Our dogs and cats safety depends on it.
