The pet registration is comprised of three key pieces of legislation. First is the City Ordinance 2526, which implements local regulations. Next is the Animal Welfare Act (RA 8485), which aims to protect animals from cruelty, and lastly, the Anti-rabies Act (RA 9482), which requires vaccination to defend against rabies. These laws work together to help promote responsible pet ownership and maintain public safety.
