Scotland has no plans to ban cats, minister confirms

Scotland’s First Minister John Swinney dismissed online rumours that the country planned to ban pet cats, clarifying, “We have no intention of doing so.”

The speculation arose after a report by the Scottish Animal Welfare Commission suggested measures to curb the 27 million birds killed by domestic cats in Britain each year. Proposals included vaccinations, neutering and potential ownership limits in areas with endangered bird species.

Swinney reassured the public, stating the government would not ban or restrict cats.
