Reuniting them with their families
The 2018 Women's Refuge survey of women whose pets were abused as part of domestic violence found:
of their children witnessed pet abuse
had an animal killed by their partner
delayed leaving family violence out of fear for their pet's safety
would have found it easier to leave if there was a shelter offering temporary accommodation for their pets
We know having animals can make it significantly harder for people to remove themselves and their children from violent households.
