Abstract

The article discusses the evolution of animal law over the past decade, highlighting the increasing recognition of animals as sentient beings rather than mere property. It focuses on the issues surrounding puppy and kitten mills, which prioritize profit over the welfare of the animals, leading to inadequate care and suffering. Various federal and state laws, such as the Animal Welfare Act and Florida's Cruelty to Animals Law, aim to protect animals from cruelty, but enforcement remains inconsistent. The article emphasizes the need for public awareness and legislative action to improve animal welfare and combat the practices of commercial breeding facilities. [Extracted from the article]
