'It's unethical to force cats and dogs to undergo unnecessary testing that can be dangerous, highly painful and even fatal,' Sen. Scott Wiener, the author of the bill, said in a statement.
Senate Bill 879, also known as the PET Act , heads to the Assembly for policy committee hearings, according to an announcement Friday from Wiener's office.
The law includes exemptions for testing for the development of products intended for use in dogs or cats including anesthesia, cancer treatment, animal vaccines, other animal medicines, or flea and tick products. Wiener said such testing on animals is beyond unreliable when it is done using substances intended for human use.
