Fiona Mae Wagglebottom's Act
AI Summary
This bill, called Fiona Mae Wagglebottom's Act, amends North Carolina's laws on cruelty to animals. It expands the definition of cruelty to include depriving animals of adequate shelter or space, and makes each act of cruelty a separate offense. The bill also defines terms like "adequate shelter" and "adequate space" to provide more specificity. Additionally, it appropriates $100,000 to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to run a public awareness campaign about the changes. The amendments take effect on December 1, 2022, except for the funding provision, which is effective July 1, 2022.
