 The Summary “Stealing pets is evil and depraved. It brings profound unhappiness. It cannot and will not be tolerated”. Rt Hon Priti Patel MP, Home Secretary Contents Preface Main Findings Pet Abduction Offence Is Cat Theft Being Afforded Sufficient Priority by Our Police? Recorded Cat Thefts by Police Authority Prosecutions and Cautions Cat Breeds being Targeted Preface Pet Theft Awareness is an organisation dedicated to highlighting the growing threat of pet abduction within the public and parliamentary consciousness. Originally founded in 2013 by Richard Jordan and Arnot Wilson, they were subsequently joined by Toni Clarke following the theft of her much-loved Siamese cat, Clooney, when it became apparent there was a lack of official recognition of the theft of family cats by those in authority. The Cat Theft Report 2022 is the result of evidence-based research using data gathered year-on-year under a Freedom of Information request to all UK police forces. It spans the period 2015-2

How many pet microchip scanners do the UK Police own? With almost ten million dogs in the UK required to have microchips - and the possibility of compulsory cat microchipping - we contacted all the UK constabularies to see if they have enough scanners to deal with the current laws that go with dog and horse compulsory microchipping? This report is not a criticism of the police but more a critical look at how their service could be improved with some funding and training.The foi was requested in July 2019 and the figures returned between then and the end of the year.

Dogs and cats will have them implanted above their shoulders below their neck. Reptiles have their chip in their rear left leg. Valuable carp fish are microchipped and so are parrots. Dogs must legally be chipped with correct ownership de

VISIT THE 2022 CAT THEFT REPORT (ARCHIVED PAGE) The 2021 UK Cat Theft Report: In a year of soaring dog thefts during lockdown, we are asking the question: Are our family cats a target too? With the public, media and police quite understandably focusing their attention on the burgeoning rise of dogs being stolen - we have all seen the shocking headlines during the Covid pandemic - has this created the opportunity for cat theft to become an increasingly invisible crime?  Pet theft is NOT yet a specific crime despite several government petitions leading to parliamentary debates. Gathering data on cat theft is proving to be increasingly difficult due to the disparate nature of recording crime statistics across the forces, but perversely, had we requested data on bicycles, scrap metal or even wild mushroom theft, we would be working with a full return of figures as all three have their own categories under the Theft Act 1968. It's scandalous that the law attaches more value to these ina
