ESA Pass is not a government agency and no official emotional support animal registry exists, including ours. Our certificate and ID card are convenience products with no independent legal force. They do not entitle an emotional support animal to the rights and privileges accorded by law to a guide, signal, or service dog, and they are not a substitute for a letter from a licensed health care professional, which is what a housing provider may ask for. Knowingly and fraudulently representing yourself as the owner or trainer of a guide, signal, or service dog is a misdemeanor under California Penal Code §365.7 and unlawful in many other states.

Sample card. Mochi and Jordan are not real.

Made for cats, not adapted from dogs

Choose Cat on the first screen and everything follows: the card, the certificate and the verification page say Cat, with your cat's breed or a simple color description like "grey tabby" if you don't know the breed.

No vest, no leash, nothing your cat would refuse to wear. Just a card, a certificate and a number.

Getting a photo your cat will allow

The best cat photos are taken at their level, in daylight, when they're settled: on a windowsill, in a favorite box, mid-nap with eyes open. Hold the phone still and wait. You can upload the photo later and replace it free from your kit page.

What a registration does and doesn't do

It gives your cat a record and a card that checks out. It doesn't create housing rights: those come from a letter from a licensed health professional who knows you, and a registration doesn't replace it.

Questions people ask

Can a cat be an emotional support animal?

Yes. Emotional support animals aren't limited to dogs. What makes an animal an emotional support animal for housing purposes is a letter from a licensed health professional, not the species or a registration.

Is cat registration required?

No. No government keeps an ESA registry, and registering is never legally required. Ours is a private registration: a record of your pet and you, with a number anyone can look up.

Will my landlord have to accept the card?

No. A registration is not an ESA letter. Under the Fair Housing Act, what a housing provider may ask for is a letter from a licensed health professional who knows you. We don't write those. Many people carry a card alongside their letter for everyday convenience.

I have two cats. Do I register both?

Each cat gets its own registration and card. After your first kit you'll see an offer for your next pet.
