The state Senate passed a bill to allow companion animals to be included in protection-from-abuse orders.

The bill now heads to Gov. Josh Shapiro , who is expected to sign it into law.

Studies show that nearly 71% of pet-owning women entering domestic violence shelters reported that their abuser had threatened, harmed or killed a pet.
