A number of constituents have contacted me concerned about the fact that currently there is no obligation on motorists to report running over a cat. I believe that most drivers would welcome a clearly set out obligation to do so - as we would if a pet dog was knocked down. Losing a much loved pet is very sad and currently owners might not even know what happened to their cat.
I was glad to highlight the campaigning going back years on this issue by Cats Protection Giffnock & District Branch while speaking about this today.
