"I Fought Cruelty!"

Tiffany Nicol, New Mexico

Protected Pets from Domestic Violence

On February 25, 2009 I addressed my city council to urge them to pass a resolution supporting legislation for protection of pets in domestic violence situations. I am extremely pleased to report that the resolution was unanimously passed. This was a wonderful moment in my life and an achievement in the work I have done with animals.
