The PETSAFE Act (HR7438) is an early-stage bill authorizing a higher federal cost share (90% vs 50%) for state and local emergency preparedness activities benefiting companion animals. It lists eligible purchases including crates, veterinary supplies, and disaster response software. However, the bill is only an authorization—no funds are appropriated—and it remains in committee with limited legislative momentum. Market impact is minimal and speculative for pet-related product and service providers.

→ State and local governments may allocate up to 90% federal cost-share for eligible pet emergency preparedness purchases, including veterinary diagnostic equipment and supplies.
