Lori begins with news of President Trump signing the PACT act into law, providing long overdue penalties for animal cruelty and torture on the federal level. The Passage of the Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act was welcomed by Kitty Block, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, who stated, “PACT makes a statement about American values. Animals are deserving of protection at the highest level,” Block said in a statement. “The approval of this measure by the Congress and the president marks a new era in the codification of kindness to animals within federal law. For decades, a national anti-cruelty law was a dream for animal protectionists. Today, it is a reality.” Co-sponsor Senator Richard Blumenthal said, “I’m grateful to see the PACT Act finally signed into law. The barbaric torture of animals has no place in a civilized society and should be a crime – and thanks to this new law, now it is.”

Then, have you ever had trouble finding and hiring a really great pet sitter? Peter welcomes Kristen Morrison, owner Six Figure Pet Business Academy, who provides solid advice on how to identify and hire people who will treat your pets as you would.
