With the introduction of the new animal welfare bill, which now makes it an offence to possibly cause suffering to an animal in your care, Which in turn I think is an excellent idea in theory as a few times I have seen animals suffer but because they were not starving etc there was nothing that could be done other than countless warnings, It has however made me wonder about where all these animals that can now be taken away are going to be put?? Animal welfare centres all over the country are already bursting at the seams. Are the government going to provide more funding for more centres and staff or is it just another not very well thought out piece of legislation?
