In order for the removal to actually take place, the pet owner needs to certify the animal's death. This leave is limited to three days a year.

The parliamentarians said that this decision will not only contribute to the mourning of the owners, but also to avoid improper disposal of the animal's body.

They added saying that incineration in a veterinary clinic is the most correct and safe way.

Will all animals be considered?

According to the authors, the pain of loss for all types of pets is understandable, but, for them, bills involving dogs and cats have less resistance from Congress.

Therefore, the idea is to start with them and, in the future, extend to other species.

Inspiration and experience

The idea and, consequently, the decision for this initiative came from the experience of Congressman Fred Costa, who had an adopted dog.

According to him, the pain he feels when looking at her and remembering all the suffering he has gone through, is possibly the pain that millions of people also have for their dogs and cats.

In addition to him, delegate Bruno Lima recalls the pain of the day he was assigned to duty shortly after losing his pet.

Veterinarian Kellen Oliveira emphasizes the benefit of the proposed law. For her, this will be another way of affirming that pets are part of the family where they are inserted.
