As a devoted cat owner of three furry friends, I’ve often worried about what would happen if they were hit by a vehicle and just left on the side of the road. This fear isn’t unfounded – countless cat owners share this concern. With the recent law requiring cats to be microchipped like dogs, it’s high time we extend the same legal protections to our feline companions as well. This means obliging drivers to stop and report to the police if they hit a cat. In the UK, an estimated 230,000 cats are hit by cars each year, with only 26% of drivers stopping to find help. If this was the law for dogs, which it is, an unbearable amount of animal suffering could be avoided. Moreover, it would provide closure to heartbroken owners who may spend weeks or months searching for their lost pet, not knowing what happened to them (source: Cats Protection league). By signing this petition, you’re not only standing up for pet owners and our beloved feline friends but also for fair treatment and justice. Please, sign this petition and help us make reporting cat road accidents to the police a legal requirement for all drivers. |
