At present there is no national database of the names or case details of people who have received bans from keeping animals for cruelty. It is still possible to receive a ban for cruelty & almost immediately go out & acquire more animals. This is unacceptable & needs to change.
A pedigree rescue cat that came into my care some years ago had been acquired by her previous owner following a lifelong ban from keeping animals. The cat's breeder was unaware of the situation at the time of purchase but was eventually involved in her subsequent rescue & rehome.
A national database of animal abusers needs to be created & made accessible to (at least) breeders, shelters & fosterers. Animals are suffering having been obtained by abusers.
