50% of women do not leave abusive situations for fear her pet will be injured or killed. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (www.ncadv.org), there were 113,123 reported cases of domestic violence and 180 domestic-violence related homicides in Florida in 2008. Women and children should not have to leave their pet(s) behind.

The goal of Animal Safehouse is to remove this barrier by caring for pets while owners are in transition. Our objective is to form a network of foster families to provide homes for pets of domestic violence survivors until they can be reunited in a safe living environment. We provide all food, supplies, vet care, and other essentials throughout their stay with us. We also help women reunite with their animals post-shelter by assisting with pet deposits and transport (we even shipped a dog to Oregon once).

After the historic passage of new domestic violence legislation through the House of Representatives, Speaker Chris Donovan and Rep. Mae Flexer joined the Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence to urge the Senate to pass the 3 bills and the Governor to sign them into law.

The bills were authored by the Speaker’s Task Force on Domestic Violence, chaired by Rep. Flexer. The results will be increased education about domestic and dating violence, GPS monitoring for high-risk offenders, and measures to ensure victims can remove themselves from dangerous and unsafe living environments.
