Introduce legislation requiring neutering of non-breeding domestic cats, with exemptions for licensed breeders and cats with certified medical reasons.
React
Members can read every reason.
Require all owned cats to be neutered
We call on the Government to introduce mandatory neutering for owned cats and to create legal protections and enforcement options to safeguard cat welfare. Cats are one of the most common pets in the UK, yet we feel they have far fewer legal protections than other animals.
Ban the breeding of cats with extreme physical traits
Ban the breeding of cats with extreme physical traits or inherited conditions that cause suffering, such as Scottish Fold, Manx and dwarf-type cats. Require strict licensing, health screening and full disclosure of risks if breeding is permitted.
Require domestic cats to be kept inside April-September and wear belled collars
We require domestic cats to wear quick release multi-belled harnesses or belled collars all the time, when cats are venturing outside, and/or be kept house bound between the start of April, right through to the end of September, annually.
Cat neutering and microchipping services promoted
Mandatory cat microchipping and neutering services are being promoted to prevent animal injuries, disease transmission, and aggressive behaviour. Affordable procedures are available.
Reduced access to affordable pet neutering services
A person on benefits cannot afford to have their cats spayed and is seeking information about charity services that previously offered reduced-cost veterinary procedures.
