What the petition asks
Help to protect pedigree cat breeding by making unregistered breeding against the law. Help govern pedigree cat breeding to registered governed breeders only who are held accountable to a governing body such as GCCF.
We have too many unregistered cat breeders selling sick, unhealthy kittens, mainly from parent cats who have not been bred correctly nor DNA tested correctly according to the pedigree. Unregistered breeders sell kittens from 6 weeks old, unvaccinated and not correctly vet checked. Registered Breeders are governed by a body to ensure the kittens are vet checked and vaccinated prior to leaving and can not leave until 13 weeks old. Unregistered breeders are breeding too many sick unhealthy kittens.
