Stop the cat overpopulation

8 key successes

We have already won some remarkable victories. Some examples:

• Our first victories: Legal prohibition of horse racing in the streets and the sale of dogs and cats in public marketplaces.
• The closure of several markets where animals suffered routine and abject abuse: the horse market in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, the cattle and horse market in Anderlecht; the conviction of the animal abusers in the Ciney cattle market. These were noteworthy examples of the impact of our hidden camera investigations.
• The prohibition of hunting stray cats in Wallonia and Flanders.
• The prohibition of keeping wild animals in circuses in Belgium.
• The decision of all Belgian supermarkets to stop selling eggs from battery hens. Now 90% of all fresh eggs sold in our country come from animal friendly farms (ground system, free range or organic).
• The European ban on trade in seal products. This historic victory against the seal hunt in Canada has helped save the lives of hundreds of thousands of seals.
• The Flemish and Walloon ban on slaughter without stunning.
• The ban on fur farming and force feeding in Flanders.
