Katie Price Faces Fresh Backlash After Sharing Photos of Pets Amid Ongoing Animal Welfare Criticism

Katie Price has once again landed in hot water after sharing affectionate photos of her pets online, sparking renewed public outcry over her continued ownership of animals.

The 45-year-old former glamour model took to Instagram Stories to post images of her three hairless Sphynx cats and two dogs cuddled up on a rug. She captioned the photo “My babies” and followed it up with another snap showing two of the cats sleeping peacefully together.

While the photos seemed harmless, they come just weeks after Katie and her boyfriend JJ Slater introduced a new 10-week-old cocker spaniel named Rookie to their followers — a move that stirred concern among animal welfare advocates due to her history with pets.

This latest display has reignited calls for Katie to be permanently banned from owning animals. A Change.org petition — initially launched following previous incidents involving her pets — has gained traction once more, now nearing 38,000 signatures.

Critics argue that her repeated controversies involving animal care raise serious questions about her suitability as a pet owner. Despite the backlash, Katie appears unfazed, continuing to showcase her affection for her furry companions on social media.
