Responsible ownership and welfare in rural Baltic and Eastern European settings remain poorly studied. The study included 383 Lithuanian owners (338 rural, 45 urban) and welfare assessments of 85 animals from 53 rural households using an adapted Animal Welfare Assessment Grid. Animal numbers per household differed significantly by residence (p = 0.0008), with 73.1% of rural respondents keeping two or more animals versus 46.7% of urban respondents. Microchipping of all household animals was less often reported by rural than urban respondents (55.5% vs. 86.7%; p = 0.0003), as was rabies vaccination within the previous three years (67.1% vs. 90.9%; p = 0.0047). Neutering of all animals was likewise less common in rural households, although not significantly (50.6% vs. 68.9%; p = 0.0633). Main welfare concerns were environmental enrichment, body condition, frequency of exposure to stressors, behaviour during procedures and the living environment; older animals had poorer scores (p = 0.0004). Rural households kept more animals, while several responsible ownership practices were less consistently implemented, potentially amplifying welfare and population-management consequences and supporting rural education and preventive veterinary initiatives.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ani16192988","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,23]],"date-time":"2026-09-23T08:14:39Z","timestamp":1790151279000},"page":"2988","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Responsible Ownership and Welfare Indicators for Dogs and Cats in Rural Lithuania: Self-Reported Practices and In-Person Assessment"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Egl\u0117 Marija","family":"Ramanauskait\u0117","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Pathobiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Academy, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, LT-47181 Kaunas, Lithuania"},{"name":"Mi\u0161ko Trobel\u0117 Animal Shelter, LT-18189 \u0160ven\u010dionys District Municipality, Lithuania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"visualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Snieguol\u0117","family":"Malakauskien\u0117","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy and Physiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Academy, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, LT-47181 Kaunas, Lithuania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"visualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Tautvil\u0117","family":"\u0160ukyt\u0117","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Pathobiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Academy, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, LT-47181 Kaunas, Lithuania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Alvydas","family":"Malakauskas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Pathobiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Academy, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, LT-47181 Kaunas, Lithuania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"supervision","vocabulary":"credit"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Adamakopoulou, C., Benedetti, B., Zappaterra, M., Felici, M., Masebo, N.T., Previti, A., Passantino, A., and Padalino, B.
