In Parade that comes in our Sun. paper there's an article on this 11/29/09! HAPPY The Humanity and Pets Partnered through the years Act would allow pet owners to deduct the cost of food,vet care and other pet related expenses from their income taxes. This to help people keep their animals!

Now ,Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R.,Mich) has introduced a bill that would use the federal tax code to help!

Guess we'll see where it goes but it does talk about "the human animal bond"
