Being a member of the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA), FOUR PAWS takes part in the greatest animal welfare petition that has ever been started:

 

 

The petition aims to persuade the United Nations to adopt an animal welfare declaration. This declaration intends to adopt animals as sentient beings – able to suffer pain and distress.

Worldwide billions of animals are abused to an unprecedented degree. Long-running transports, intensive mass animal farming, facilities to kill stray animals or animal testing laboratories – everywhere animals are treated with brutality and ruthlessness as if they were objects. 

 

Until now there are no national or international protection measures for abused animals. For the predominant majority not even the most basic needs are granted.

 

 

WSPA needs 10,000,000 signatures and FOUR PAWS wants to support WSPA with this petition. We will keep you updated and hand over the signatures to the initiators!
