class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2024 grant recipients are leading the way with programs that support the benefits of pets for communities, while also helping keep people and pets together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a recent survey of cities participating in the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS\u2122 program, 100% agreed that pets contribute to a stronger sense of community and 98% said being pet friendly is an important factor in the future health and growth of their city.<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the individual level, about nine in 10 adults say pets act as conversation starters or ice breakers, and 83% of adults say they\u2019ve communicated or interacted with people they otherwise would not have connected with because of their pet.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Recognizing and Supporting Cities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, more than 180 cities across 41 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Canada have achieved certification in the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS\u2122 program. Together, these cities are home to more than 12 million pets.<sup>3<\/sup> See the cities at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bettercitiesforpets.com\/fr\/villes-certifiees-atterrissage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BetterCitiesForPets.com\/cities<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To help cities achieve the benefits of being pet friendly, the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS\u2122 program provides free online resources, a playbook for cities, certification programs, grants and policy advocacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, 90% of last year\u2019s survey respondents said they need support for responsible pet ownership, so the program launched a Responsible Pet Ownership Communication Toolkit for cities in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Communities that want to be more pet friendly can visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bettercitiesforpets.com\/fr\/outils\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BetterCitiesForPets.com<\/a> to explore the program\u2019s playbook, free toolkits and other resources, as well as apply for certification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:86px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1.
