Petition Introduce mandatory neutering of non-breeding cats

Introduce legislation requiring neutering of non-breeding domestic cats, with exemptions for licensed breeders and cats with certified medical reasons.

More details

Uncontrolled breeding contributes to growing feral cat populations, overcrowded rescue centres and unnecessary animal suffering. Mandatory neutering of non-breeding cats could improve animal welfare, reduce abandonment and support responsible pet ownership.
