The more pet friendly plates we sell, the more animals we can help. Stop by your Deputy Registrar's office or visit oplates.com to share your love for cats and dogs. This "dog friendly" plate will be available late July 2022.
Our "CAT FRIENDLY" plate has helped to spay and neuter thousands of cats in Ohio over the last 15 years. We help Ohio non-profit groups, counties, and humane societies with their population control, adoption and TNR programs.

The Ohio Pet Fund began awarding grants for dog/cat sterilization in 2006-2007. Some of our recipients are listed below. (We have more to add!)

THANK YOU to all of the above groups who have helped spread the word about our pet plate. A big thank you to our artists. Jenny Campbell, of the comic Flo and Friends, drew our signature cartoon plates. We appreciate the many hours getting the plates just right. Thank you, also, to Debbie Stonebraker, Denise Laurent, the late senator Robert Schuler, and MinuteMan Press.
