Rejected petition Ban the consumption of dog and cat meat in the UK.

Your help and influence is needed for making progress in encouraging countries to enforce basis animal cruelty laws.

More details

Dogs and Cats are off the livestock list in China but there is still no laws or punishments against killing and eating them. We know that there has been no documented cases of this in the UK but it is important to close legal loopholes and set an example so we can encourage other countries to make animal welfare laws. With this ban we can help make changes worldwide and join other countries and cities (US, Taiwan, Hong Kong etc) that have already made this illegal.
