"There is currently no EU legislation for the protection of pets and stray animals, despite the fact that the EU’s pet population is estimated at over 100 million. These animals are often victims of mistreatment and cruelty in many Member States, and too often petitioners mainly refer to Member States in southern and eastern Europe. This vote is intended to establish an EU legal framework for the protection of pets and stray animals. The European Convention for the Protection of Pet Animals therefore needs to be ratified and its provisions transposed into national legal systems. Measures are required such as rules for the identification and registration of animals, the prohibition of unlicensed kennels and shelters, as well as stray animal management strategies, including vaccination and sterilisation programmes, and measures to promote responsible ownership."@en1
