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.

People can already be banned from owning animals if they are found guilty of animal cruelty.

You could start a new petition asking for an increase to the minimum sentence for animal cruelty, if that's what you'd like to happen. You can find out more about the current sentences and recent plans for them to be changed here: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8612/
