A crackdown on breeders who rear 'XL Bully cats' with painful deformities sold as 'fashion accessories' has been demanded in Parliament.
A crackdown on breeders who rear 'XL Bully cats' with painful deformities sold as 'fashion accessories' has been demanded in Parliament. Breeders created the 'bully cats', which are named after the resemblance to the outlawed dogs, by mixing the gene that causes hairlessness in sphynx cats with the gene responsible for the short legs of munchkin cats.
"Social media accounts promote the XL Bully cats on platforms like Instagram, with breeder Bella Jones, who runs breeding firm BullyCats UK, telling the Telegraph her cats are fully “health tested.”Despite these claims, furless cats are well-known to suffer from health complications and skin infections.Lady Hayman said the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs was working on a post-implementation review of the regulations, which would be published shortly.
