Petition Action

Make it a criminal offence if a driver does not stop after hitting a cat.

Petition Details

Britain is nation of animal lovers and I call upon you to support this petition. Our much loved family cat, Bruce, was recently run over and killed. We found out via an eye witness that the driver did not stop which seems cowardly and inhumane. Just stopping and checking could save cat's lives.

Additional Information

Cats should be offered the same protection as dogs, horses etc and drivers should have to report the accident and stop at the accident site too. Please offer your support to this petition it really would mean a lot to the entire family and cat lovers everywhere.

Thank You
