Rebellion over Government’s rules on pets

The recommendations – including “cat-proofing” windows and balconies to prevent falls, having at least one litter tray per cat, and guaranteeing that dogs wear collars and identity tags in public places – were announced in November.

Now, angry animal experts and pet owners believe that the rules risk criminalising responsible animal lovers.

Dog owners fear that they could be prosecuted for leaving their animals alone in a car for even just a few moments, or for not grooming their pets often enough.

Cat owners have expressed concern that they could face action for having only one litter tray when they own two cats.
