Establishes micro shelters for animals and outlines minimum requirements for those shelters to operate

Summary

The bill establishes “micro shelters,” nonprofit animal shelters that may house up to ten animals at any time, not counting newborn puppies or kittens. These shelters would be exempt from the usual licensing and inspection rules for larger shelters, but must register annually with the state director at no cost. The intent is to lower regulatory barriers for very small rescues while still ensuring basic care standards.
