In Sweden, with over 100,000 homeless cats and almost no homeless dogs, the law favors dogs, which must be registered and microchipped, while cats are not required to be. To address this, we launched a campaign for cats, using dogs as spokespersons. Drawing from successful social movements, the campaign engaged media and influenced politicians to push for better protection for cats.

Dogs have all the rights that cats lack, which is why there are almost no homeless dogs in Sweden. Cat and dog. Dog and cat. It's like bread and butter. The fact that our society only protects dogs with mandatory ID tagging and registration feels not only unfair but also shows that dogs are valued more than cats. We simply care more about them. This insight led to the creation of the "Stoppa Kattastrofen" campaign.
