No. Cats are consider personal property and "repairs" to it are not taxable. Only if they were certified service animals would their expenses be tax deductible. |

I don't think so.Dependents need to be human under the tax laws of most countries.
I suppose you could write him off as a business expense, if you have your own business, but you would have to put him on the payroll. |

Possibly. My cat is our corporate advertising spokesman. His bills are deductible. To simply state 'NO' would be incorrect. |

Unfortunately no. They are not considered dependants and you cannot get them social security numbers. |

Only if they were part of a legitimate business expense. |

Not normally but there are unusual circumstances under which you may. Is the cat a necessary part of your business or employment. For example you are a cat trainer and you use this cat on your television show. What ever your story is you should be ready to look an IRS examiner in the face and explain why the cat is a necessary part of your business or employment. I do a couple of dog each year for clients but have yet to find a story good enough to do a cat. |
