Petition: Animal abusers to be banned for life from keeping animals

2 replies

Whilst doing some research before bringing home our lovely rescue dog, I found out that people convicted of animal cruelty in the UK can be allowed to keep animals again in as little as 5 years. Just a quick search through the RSPCA's social media feeds will bing up countless examples of animals receiving horrific treatment, with their abusers getting completely abysmal punishment.

If you agree, please sign this petition and spread the word 🙏🏼 https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/705772/

Petition: Impose a lifetime ban on animal ownership for anyone convicted of animal cruelty

The government should impose a lifetime ban on animal ownership for anyone who causes deliberate suffering to animals. Under current laws, courts can impose bans but these may be short-term, allowing offenders to own animals again after a short period.
