We are a group of community members who feel the urgent need for the European Community to enact regulations for the protection of domestic animals within the European Community. Currently, the situation exceeds any attempt, based only on the goodwill of citizens, to take care of abandoned or maltreated cats and dogs. The entire Community needs to confront the necessity of Spayed/Neutered, vaccination and de –fleaing, however, overall we have to endeavour to legally fine all maltreat and abuse suffered by domestic animals. This problem does not only concern animals, as the lack of the aforementioned, has a direct negative affect on individuals health and safety. The European Community should therefore enact regulations urgently and demand all state members to enforce these legally. To synthesis, the main points of our PETITION are: 1. Request to enact regulations on a Community level of protection towards domestic animals with immediate affect throughout all the European territory. 2. Request to enact regulations on a Community level that contemplates animal vaccinations, de-fleaing and Sprayed/Neutered, requiring for every state member to fit out free or low cost health centres in order to attend animal health care. 3. Regulate within the European Community the need to establish awareness campaigns within the population concerning the necessity of the protection/health of domestic animals. Each National Government will initiate campaigns within their territory in cooperation with the media, and with Educational Institutions across the board. 4. Demand that the authorities of each country within the European Community abide and adhere to the established laws, including the enforcement of microchips in order to avoid desertion, maltreat, kidnap and theft of domestic animals. We await a prompt and positive response. Yours Sincerely De nuestra consideración, Somos un grupo de ciudadanos comunitarios que sentimos la urgente necesidad de que la Comunidad Europea resuelva dictar normas para la Protección de los Animales de Compañía dentro del espacio comunitario. En estos momentos la realidad sobrepasa cualquier intento –fundado sólo en la buena voluntad de los ciudadanos- de ocuparse de los perros y gatos abandonados o maltratados. La Comunidad en su conjunto necesita enfrentar el problema de la necesidad de la castración, vacunación y desparasitación, pero sobre todo debe procurar sancionar efectivamente todo maltrato o abuso cometido sobre dichos animales. Este problema no es sólo de los animales, es un problema del que debe tomar conciencia toda la población ya que es un tema de seguridad y sanidad para los individuos. La Comunidad Europea debe dictar normas generales de protección para los animales de compañía y exigir a cada estado miembro su efectiva aplicación en forma prioritaria y urgente. En síntesis, los principales puntos de nuestra PETICION son: 1. Solicitar el dictado de normas a nivel Comunitario de protección hacia los animales de compañía de aplicación directa dentro de todo el territorio de la Comunidad. 2. Solicitar el dictado de normas a nivel Comunitario que contemplen dentro de la protección de los animales la castración, vacunación y desparasitación de los mismos, exigiendo de cada estado miembro habilitar centros de sanidad de bajo costo o gratuito para la atención de estos animales. 3. Reglamentar desde la Comunidad el establecimiento de campañas masivas de Educación de la Población para la concientización acerca de las necesidades de protección y sanidad en los animales. Campañas que cada gobierno nacional deberá poner en marcha en su territorio con la colaboración de los medios masivos de comunicación y de las instituciones educativas en todos los niveles. 4. Exigir que la Policía de cada gobierno nacional dentro de la Comunidad haga cumplir las reglas que la Comunidad establezca, incluyendo la obligatoriedad de utilización del microchip individual para evitar los abandonos, maltratos, secuestros y robos de los animales. Esperamos obtener una respuesta positiva a la brevedad a nuestra petición. Atentamente,

The European Commission continues to ignore the suffering of these animals while looking the other way. We are still pushing for mandatory regulations because relying on the empty promises of individual states is a failure. They need to understand that this silence will not make us stop.

The European Commission can no longer ignore this groundswell of outrage while animals suffer in the streets. We have reached a point where they must acknowledge that their current incompetence is costing lives and threatening public safety.

Cruelty to animals is disgusting. If someone can hurt a dog they will hurt a person too. We need strict rules across the whole community to protect them.

My heart breaks for the animals that get dumped. Why are there no consequences for these people?? Make it illegal and fine them!!!

YES. About time there is a Europe wide rule for this. The abuse has to stop and the government needs to help with the costs of spaying because it is way too expensive right now.

Vaccinations should be free or super cheap for everyone. So many people want to do the right thing for their pets but just cant afford the vet bills.

Too many poor stray dogs on the streets here. It is heartbreaking to see. Laws need to be the same everywhere so these animals get a fair chance.
