In 2012, the project ‘Vethics – Professional Ethics for Vets’ has been launched at the Messerli Research Institute. This project is funded by the Austrian Ministry of Health and aims at encouraging and supporting practice-oriented interdisciplinary research in the context of ethics in human-animal interaction. Against the background of changing perceptions of animals in Western societies, the aim of the project is to support official veterinarians with regard to ethical decision-making (1). As veterinarians and official veterinarians play a major role in the field of human-animal interaction, the idea of the project is to explore ethical dimensions of practical day-to-day life of official veterinarians. Here, the link between professional experience and practical problems with ethical theory gains importance. More specifically, some key topics and crucial conflicts emerging in official veterinarians’ professional life have been identified that provide the thematic structure of the project (2). Amongst others, ‘killing of pets’ was one of them and the first one elaborated in two workshops. First results of these workshops and the status quo of the project will be briefly presented in the following (3). Relevant insights into the normative structure of ethical challenges related to ‘killing pets’ as part of the official veterinarian’s professional responsibility will be discussed in brief. The paper concludes with general considerations about the general idea of a veterinary ethics (4).
