Welsh Lib Dem Peter Black (no relation) writes here about the charity Cat Protection’s 10 point manifesto for the General Election. it includes:
– Compulsory microchipping of owned cats
– A national database of cats entering the UK legally so those entering illegally without a rabies vaccination can be identified without delay
– Updating the DangerousDogs Act to allow prosecution of owners whose dogs attack cats
– Inclusion of animal welfare in the National Curriculum
– Clear labelling of flowers, plants and household products that are toxic to cats
– Outright ban on snares
– Stricter regulation on the ownership of air guns and crossbows
