What the petition asks
Did you know that the UK has NOT made it illegal to kill dogs & cats for their meat? How can we ask every country to make it illegal when we don't
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not sure whether you'd like "domesticated animals" to include all domesticated animals, including cattle and sheep, or whether you'd like something different.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government and Parliament to ban the killing of dogs and cats for food, if that's what you'd like to happen.
