We set the stage for future progress, together

 

Seattle Humane remained deeply involved throughout the Washington state legislative session this year. We sincerely appreciate everyone who engaged with our new Action Alert tool to advocate for bills expanding access to pet care and safeguarding animal welfare. Although the session was brief and some initiatives didn’t advance, together we’ve set the stage for future progress.  One major victory this session was the passage of HB 2247, which increases telemedicine options and makes veterinary care more accessible for pet owners across Washington. The bill cleared both legislative chambers and was signed into law by Governor Ferguson on March 24, 2026. Regrettably, HB 1078—which would have strengthened consumer protections for pet insurance—passed the House but did not proceed to the Senate. Similarly, HB 1904, aimed at banning elective declawing, did not move forward in the House. We expect to pick these initiatives back up in the 2027 legislative session.   Thank you for your continued commitment to Seattle Humane, and for supporting pets and their families in our community. Your passion and participation are the driving force behind our progress!  Learn more by visiting our Advocacy page to discover how you can continue connecting with your representatives and help create a kinder, safer world for pets and their people.   Stay Connected       13212 SE Eastgate Way Bellevue, WA 98005 SeattleHumane.org | View in Browser If you no longer wish to receive emails like this, unsubscribe at any time.

A Purrfect Love Story

Here's how to protect the pets you love, aze

 

Give Monthly Dear aze, This February, we can’t stop smiling about Rory, the cat who turned out to be the purrfect Valentine for Parker and his family. 💘  Parker’s mom, Heather, shared: “Rory has been amazing with our kids (ages 3 and 7). They love him so much and the feeling is mutual. He loves to play and snuggle with them and puts up with just about anything. He was the purrfect pick of active and outgoing to match our family craziness!”  That kind of love is what Seattle Humane is all about: helping pets and people find each other and then cheering on the life they build together. After adoption, Seattle Humane provides ongoing support for families including veterinary support, training classes and planning for the future care of your pet. If you’ve been meaning to create a will, we have a helpful resource to share.   With our partner FreeWill, you can create or update your will for free in about 20 minutes.  It’s a simple and caring way to protect the people and pets closest to your heart. You can: ❤️ Name loving guardians for your pets  ❤️ Take care of human loved ones  ❤️ Include a planned gift to Seattle Humane   Make my free will Including Seattle Humane in your will is completely optional, but it’s a loving gesture for the animals in our community. With your help, we can continue to save lives, complete families and keep pets with the people who love them.    With love, Brenda Tincher Planned Giving Officer P.S. Already included Seattle Humane in your will or trust? Please let us know here so we can share our thanks!  Stay Connected         13212 SE Eastgate Way Bellevue, WA 98005 SeattleHumane.org | View in Browser If you no longer wish to receive emails like this, unsubscribe at any time.
