West Virginia HB4933 allows a tax credit for the cost of spaying or neutering a dog or cat.

West Virginia HB4933 amends the state's personal income tax code to introduce a tax credit for the cost of spaying or neutering a dog or cat. The credit is equal to 100 percent of the cost paid for the procedure, provided the taxpayer presents a receipt from a licensed veterinarian. This bill aims to incentivize pet sterilization by offering a financial benefit to pet owners who opt for these procedures.
