7．The city of Rome has passed a new law to prevent cruelty to animals．All goldfish bowls are no longer allowed and dog owners must walk their dogs．
This comes after a national law was passed to give prison sentences to people who desert （抛弃）cats or dogs．
"The civilization of a city can be measured by this，"said Monica Carina，the councilor behind the new law．
The newspaper reported that round bowls don't give enough oxygen for fish and may make them go blind．
"Rome has tried to protect fish more than anywhere else in the world．It stands out for recognizing that fish are interesting animals that deserve over respect and pity every bit as much as dogs and cats and other animals，"said Karin Robertson，director of the People for the Ethical treatment of Animals．
Last year a law was passed in Italy that gives people who desert pets big fines and prison sentences．Since then local governments have added their own animal protection rules．
The northern city of Turin passed a law in April to give pet owners fines of up to $598if they do not walk their dogs three times a day．
The new law in Rome also says that owners mustn't leave their dogs in hot cars or cut their dogs'tail to make them look lovelier．The law also gives legal recognition to the"cat ladies"who feed homeless cats．The cats live all over the city from ancient ruins to modern office car parks．
