Documenteries: I'm not sure what this question is asking.

Law Formation: For dogs, do breed-specific legislation. That's a hot topic now, so it should be easy to do. As for cats, do some research on the historical period where cats were considered devils, and those who kept them were tried and burned as witches.

Good ideas, Gempress. And cats were also burned as witches!

Another angle is the changing animal cruelty laws. Many states are now adopting statutes that elevate some forms of cruelty from misdemeanors to felonies.

As far as the documentaries go, why not tie the two questions together and deal with the media coverage of animal cruelty and it's impact on the enactment of laws such as breed specific legislation and animal cruelty laws?

That sounds like a good idea, im also trying to tie in cats and dogs together in each topic whilst mentioning both which will cover the answers instea of having too write much about either one, i've managed to do that with the others which has worked.
