A spokesperson told "While it’s wonderful for to enjoy the great outdoors and lovely when guardians include them on suitable outings, it can be damned dangerous to have the car window lowered enough for them to jump or fall out."

Highlighting the risks to the dog, the spokesperson said: "A sudden stop, sharp turn, or tempting distraction can quickly turn a fun trip into a tragedy."

The latest intervention from Peta comes after they previously offered to pay her thousands of pounds to stop buying pets. Offering the glamour model £5,000, they said in a past statement: "things have gone horribly wrong with many of the animals under her supervision."

In June 2023, Katie's German Shepherd Blade was struck on the busy A24, close to her home in East Sussex. Sharing her grief at the time, she wrote in an online post: "Words can't express the lost of my best friend my protector my absolutely everything who had sadly passed away today. I have no words to say how I'm feeling but numb and shocked rip Blade."

Six months earlier, her pet Pomeranian Sharon was killed, reportedly in a horror crash on the same road. And the year before that, Katie's Alsatian Queenie, a present from her ex Kieran Hayler, was allegedly hit by a pizza delivery driver.

She wrote on social media at the time: "I'm absolutely devastated... she was killed by a heartless delivery driver who ran into our dog seeing her struggle and drove off without telling and left her to die."

Another Alsatian belonging to the star was killed on the A24 in 2020 - but it's not just dogs that have died in tragic circumstances. A horse was also killed on the busy road in 2017 when it escaped from a field.

In July 2020, French bulldog Rolo died after getting stuck under an electric armchair. The pet had been a present for Katie's daughter, Princess Andrei's 13th birthday and the mum called what happened a 'freak accident'.

The glamour model attempted to revive the pet before rushing him to the vet, where she learned it was sadly too late. "There was nothing they could do, but they did say he wouldn't have died in pain, it was quick," she explained on at the time.
