Please sign petition to record numbers of companion animals euthanised in England
Please consider signing the Petition to record and publish numbers of companion animals euthanised in England - a few thousand more signatures needed before it can be debated in parliament Thousands of healthy animals are euthanised every year, often because families no longer want them or can afford them. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/639459Currently there is no accurate data on companion animal euthanasia. We want requirements for veterinarians, rescue organisations and pounds to record and report details on companion animal euthanasia including why, where, gender, breed, age, and breeder information.This should then be published by the Government.Government responses to previous petitions have failed to acknowledge that this data is needed.A large number of companion animals are at risk of euthanasia and/or euthanised due to economic restraints, behaviour issues, lack of rescue spaces and treatable health conditions.Mandatory recording requirements would provide information that can be used to put in place measures to help reduce future risks of euthanasia and provide data leading to awareness and action on areas of concern to the public, such as abandonment, bites and behaviour.Change does not happen without evidence.🆘🆘 This is a very sad situation 🆘🆘Our petition has only reached 7.5k signatures and is at risk of dying a death for the 3rd time as we need 10k signatures for a response and a whopping 100k for a debate. We struggle so much with shares and signatures yet we know that other posts get amazing reactions and we help save so many lives. Please help by signing and sharing https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/639459#TuksLaw
