Animal abandonment has long been a misdemeanor in CA - you'll see signs about this in just about every vet office since they are frequently the site of abandonment: people come in to leave their pet for grooming or whatever...and never come back. If found and charged, there is a fine of up to $1000.

SB 237 is an amendment to the CA Vehicle Code. You can read the history of the bill at http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/postquery?bill_number=sb_237&sess=CUR&house=B&author=vincent

The code itself is in VEHICLE CODE SECTION 21350-21376. You can look it (and any CA code) up at http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/calaw.html
