Thanks to the ASPCA, you can carry around a little pocket guide to New York’s state cruelty laws. You know, in case you catch a person in the act of dumping Fluffy out of a carrier into a local park like the man last Saturday in Riverside Park. Now you can snap a photo of the perp with your camera phone and let the person know that animal abandonment is a crime under Article 26, code 355 and that you’ll be reporting the act to the police and the maximum penalty is 1 year in prison or a $1,000 fine. Power to the Paws. Go Here to search the list of Violations or get a cruelty laws card.
