Reduce the maximum noise level for consumer fireworks from 120 to 90 decibels - 178,753 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 185,285 - 118 added in the past 24hrs)

We think each year, individuals suffer because of loud fireworks. We believe horses, dogs, cats, livestock and wildlife can be terrified by noisy fireworks and many people find them intolerable.

The Government responsed to this petition on 7th November 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government recognises that some people have strong feelings about fireworks and has been listening to concerns raised by members of the public regarding the impact of firework noise.

Ban greyhound racing - 38,331 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 42,593 - 425 added in the past 24hrs)

Greyhound racing kills and injures dogs. From 2017–2023, 1,230 dogs died trackside, many more were destroyed, and there were over 31,000 injuries. We believe it’s time to follow Wales and ban this cruel sport.

The Government responsed to this petition on 30th October 2025 (View Full Response)
The government has no plans to ban greyhound racing. The government considers it a well-regulated sport and recognises the contribution it makes to many people’s lives as well as to the economy.

Require non-stunned and stunned meat to be labelled accordingly - 33,770 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 38,168 - 84 added in the past 24hrs)

We think it should be required that the labelling of non-stunned and stunned meat be clearly labelled throughout the food chain. This includes shops, supermarkets, suppliers, fast food and restaurants

The Government responsed to this petition on 10th November 2025 (View Full Response)
Whilst there is no regulatory requirement for labelling of meat from animals slaughtered without stunning, any information of this nature must be accurate and must not be misleading to the consumer.

Allow charities to rescue dogs with docked tails under the Animal Welfare Bill - 21,416 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 29,304 - 61 added in the past 24hrs)

We ask Parliament to include an exemption in the Animal Welfare (Import of Dogs, Cats and Ferrets) Bill for registered charities and approved, responsible rescue organisations to rehome adult, disease tested dogs, who were previously docked as working hunting dogs abroad.

The Government responsed to this petition on 6th January 2026 (View Full Response)
We will work with stakeholders to consider appropriate exemptions as we deliver the relevant regulations. Exemptions will need to be finely balanced against the risk of creating loopholes.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 27,166 - 41 added in the past 24hrs)

Legislate to require drivers to report collisions with cats - 5,708 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 22,329 - 1,107 added in the past 24hrs)

It is legal in the UK to hit a cat when driving and not need to stop or report collisions, leaving them scared, alone, and in pain. Cats are important, loved, valued family members for many and we believe the law should reflect this.

Change the DDA 1991 to stop breed bans and focus on behaviour - 11,102 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 11,920 - 11 added in the past 24hrs)

We ask the Government to reform the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 by removing breed-specific legislation and replacing it with behaviour-based laws. We think legislation should focus on responsible ownership, training, and education to improve public safety without unfairly targeting certain dog breeds.

Review and centrally Record Pet Euthanasia Data - 6,209 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 9,861 - 76 added in the past 24hrs)

With some reports suggesting a rise in euthanasia rates, we think research must be undertaken by government and relevant bodies to centrally record how many dogs and cats are being euthanised: where, why, age, breed, gender and microchip status. All veterinarians must be required to report this data
