Eating cat meat as a tourist in Switzerland

11/26/2014 11:17:34 PM

It’s not legal to sell cat meat in Switzerland, neither raw nor cooked. The Swiss Regulation of the Confederate Department of Interior on food of animal origin, article 2 has a list of animals of which the meat can be sold or distributed as food. It is therefore unlikely that you will find a restaurant catering with cat meat. If there are any, they are at least unlikely to advertise it.

What is allowed in Switzerland, is to slaughter and consume both cat and dog meat in a private setting. I am however keen to believe that the legal situation is similar in most other European countries. Even if commercial dsitribution is prohibited, I doubt that there are laws or regulations in many countries actually prohibiting consuming cat and dog meat.
