Hello.

My name is Natasha Resnick.

I want to thank this committee for holding and addressing the need for low cost, bay nooder, and vet services for New York City residents and rescuers to help the animals stay in their homes and get animals off the streets.
5:55:59
And I wanna underline the importance to pass the bill to stop the sale from self breeders.
5:56:04
Because New York City New York Education law requires elementary schools to teach students the necessity of controlling the proliferation of animals, which are subsea equally abandoned and cause to suffer extreme cruelty.
5:56:18
Human education is mandated in New York City School in New York Schools for all elementary students, but it is not promoted or enforced.
5:56:27
And we should stress that breeders selling cute baby animals have no regard for their animals' health or provide health or spay nudist services.
5:56:35
In addition, encourage New York City Schools to advertise flyers of the wonderful animals for adoption.
5:56:41
That showcase many good girls and boy animals that ended up in their situations and helped the community see that adopting is better than buying.
5:56:51
That Spain Utter helps animals live longer, healthier lives, and low cost, Spain noodles, and vets are sales helps communities and neighborhoods get resources.
5:57:01
Therefore, reducing homeless animals off of the streets.
5:57:05
New York City can be a model for compassion respect to all animals, and we could start with passing right as well.
5:57:11
Thank you.
