This petition was submitted during the 2015–2017 Conservative government

Rejected petition Give Animals more rights in Courts.

Make the Courts see our Pet's as Living Breathing Creatures and not a piece of furniture.
Give Justice to those Animals and give longer Jail sentences to the Abusers!

More details

Every day we see stories of Animals being Abused or killed but our Courts do nothing to stop this.

Give our pets the same rights as people because at the moment they are only seen as objects and not living breathing creatures.

Please sign this Petition so the Animals that have been Tortured, Abused and Killed get Justice.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure what action you would like Parliament to take. If you would like the law to be changed, to give animals more legal rights, you could start a petition calling for the specific change to the law that you would like to see.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
