Horses are sentient beings - to steal someone's pet and sell it to a slaughter house is simply unthinkable. This establishment must be shut down as soon as possible - we don't want it in our caring city!!!

This issue is just shocking!! The stealing of a person's animals and the illegal slaughter thereof for financial gain is sickening!!! Slaughter houses should keep registers and ask for proof of ownership!!! Durrr!!!! So many people with no ethics or conscience!! I'm totally disgusted and appalled!!! With regards to the wellbeing of all animals - I would also like the Metro to consider residents paying for animal licenses again and some of the proceeds donated to the Animal Shelters who just rely on public donations and fundraising. Perhaps even just a flat levy added to all residents accounts - even R10 a month! This is a societal matter and should be handled as such.

Horses should not be stolen and then sold to be slaughtered. Its inhumane

I have a rescue organisation in Cape Town and have been trying for years to wake people up to the plight of horses so maybe someone else starting a petition will help everyone involve in horse rescue!!! THIS HAS TO STOP!!!!!!!!

Although it is better to humanely put our trusted, faithful friends out of the path of possible abuse in their later lives, it is imperative that this decisionbe made by the ccarers/owners of these special creatures.

I think it is unforgivable to slaughter horses/ponies. If for whatever reason a horse needs to be shot .....let it give back in some way and donate it to the game parks to feed there animals.

There is hundreds of reasons why not to slaughter a horse...to start with,its a pet. Horse meat never ever was healthy to be eaten by any human being. Their is a very big health issue about that.. I know the person's who is doing this and not only are the very filthy and their setup is a stinky mess!!!!! Just by driving pass their you can see what I'm saying. They are not going through the right channels to slaughter and sell their meat. They slaughter their animals outside in the fields and when it comes to transport the slaughtered animal to their customer they use an open bakkie and drive through public areas and roads for everybody to see. And another point that will make you think between the lines: Normally on Fridays Traffic officers cars come in their to collect their stuff. Think about it, not one of their transport vechiles should be on the road. Well, as I said their is hundreds of reasons why not to slaughter horses,by doing it something in those persons are humanly not right....i can go on and on and on about it...... please stop this person and his followers!!!!!!!!!

I am signing because of a recent tragedy in this city. The current climate of lawlessness is just seeing a surge in illegal behaviour now including the slaughter of horses.

I am a horse lover, born and bred in Uitenhage. The idea of there being a slaughter house for horses in the area is dreadful.
