Katie Price has been labelled as "cruel" and "heartless" by fans after she hinted at possibly parting ways with her 17 pets. The celebrity has been commuting between England and Dubai since tying the knot with Lee Andrews in January, and shared how the travel was impacting her animals. In a YouTube vlog, Katie expressed the need to "sort out" her pets: "I've got to sort out what I'm going to do with the animals because obviously Lee's in Dubai and I'm going to keep going to Dubai and back.

"I've got 12 animals in the house. I know I like things excessive like big cars, big boobs, big bum, lots of animals, horses, this, that. I think I need to re-evaluate my life a little bit and just have a little think about everything."

She then appeared to ponder whether she should relinquish some of her pets, stating: "Because, yeah, do I need so many animals? You know you gotta be there, all the time for them. Do I need....anyway everything I do is excessive, we all know that. You know that, I know that. So, I am gonna have to re-evaluate things in my life."

Katie began discussing her life in England while her husband resides in Dubai before suddenly recalling that in addition to 12 animals, she has another five. "I've got 17 animals, oh my God," she exclaimed.

Fans expressed their concern and disapproval in the video's comments. One commented, "Please help her animals." Meanwhile, others accused her of neglect or being a "disgrace".

"You shouldn't be allowed to have pets you have a record of neglect and cruelty," a fan said. Another added: "The way you casually say you don't need so many animals... you're a disgrace who just thinks about yourself."

One fan said they were disgusted by her words: "How can you even think of getting rid of your animals. That's disgusting! They're not disposable." Another added: "Totally heartless and cruel."

Katie has endured a troubled history with her pets, as over the years, there have been numerous tragic incidents. In 2017, one of her horses was killed on the A24 after it escaped from its field. A few months later, her dog Queenie was struck by a car near her home after the gate was left open, which Katie said was the fault of a delivery driver.

Another dog died in 2020 after being hit by a car. After she shared the news, her fans urged her to exercise greater caution with her pets. The star faced criticism again in 2022 when a third dog was hit by a car and she was condemned by PETA in 2023 when it happened again.

PETA said she had "blood on her hands" following the deaths of multiple pets. Fans have previously compiled a petition to prevent Katie from owning pets, which reached 37,000 signatures.
