Pets love unconditionally. Love them back by staying tobacco-free or making a quit-attempt.

The New York State Quitline invites you to visit nysmokefree.com/pets and pledge your support for tobacco-free living around pets. Whether you plan to become tobacco-free or stay tobacco-free for your pet, or whether you’ve always been tobacco-free and support clean air for pets, you can join the campaign at nysmokefree.com/pets by posting a pet photo or selecting a creative pet GIF paired with a powerful message.

Participate by October 31, 2026, and you can earn a chance to win a $500 or $250 gift card for pet supplies, courtesy of a donation to the New York State Quitline!
