Kittens In Traumatic Testing Ends Now Act (original) (raw)

The Kittens In Traumatic Testing Ends Now Act, stylized as the "KITTEN Act", refers to several proposed pieces of American legislation intended to amend the Animal Welfare Act and prevent harmful or painful procedures during animal research. The proposal is specifically intended to curtail funding for certain research programs in the United States Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service office. The Washington Post reported allegations that such research into feline toxoplasmosis may have involved cannibalism.
