Cuomo’s NYC: Tattoo Your Dog And You Will Receive A $250 Fine And 15 days In Jail


“When we make laws you must obey,” is the mantra of incoming Marxist governments. You know, they want to acclimate you to their authority.

That is what we have in NYC’s newest law, the  ‘You can pet them, but you can’t pierce them’ law (Truth and Action titled).

Tattooing pets is a new trend that isn’t exactly a national or statewide phenomena, just yet, but Cuomo is on top of it!

Not because he cares about your pet’ s self-esteem, but because he’s looking for any excuse to exert authority, all in the name of making you more amenable to the authority of The State.

When the law takes effect in 119 days, the only types of markings that will be allowed will have to be done in the presence of a veterinarian and must be specifically for health or identification purposes.

“This is animal abuse, pure and simple,” Cuomo said. “I’m proud to sign this common-sense legislation and end these cruel and unacceptable practices in New York once and for all.”

Those found to be in violation of the law will be subject to criminal penalties, including a fine of up to $250 and 15 days in jail.

“Though it may seem inconceivable that anyone would tattoo or pierce their dog or cat, a quick Internet search reveals that it is a growing trend among some misguided individuals,” said Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal to Reuters.

“Humans should not apply their own fashion sense in permanent harm and injury to their animals,” she added to the New York Daily News.

Rosenthal originally introduced the bill back in 2011, following the controversial news that a woman was selling “gothic” kittens with piercings on their bodies online. Photos on social networks depicting tattooed animals also sparked outrage.

“While people can decide whether they would like to undergo the pain associated with a tattoo or piercing, animals do not have that luxury,” she said in a press release. “Subjecting animals to painful cosmetic procedures, such as tattooing and piercing, merely to satisfy an individual’s misguided and selfish aesthetic predilections, is inhumane and should be considered cruelty by the law.”
