INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A bill that would bar Indiana residents convicted of crimes involving animal abuse from owning a cat or dog while on probation or parole is headed to Gov. Eric Holcomb's desk.

House members voted 90-0 Tuesday to send the bill to Holcomb, who's expected to sign it into law. The measure passed the Senate, 49-0, in February.

The (Northwest Indiana) Times reports the legislation would bar anyone convicted of one of 13 animal abuse offenses, including animal fighting, from owning, harboring or training a dog or cat for the duration of their probation or parole.
