The party was supported in the run-up to the 22 November 2006 parliamentary elections by several Dutch celebrities, such as writers Maarten 't Hart and Jan Wolkers. It is the world's first party to gain parliamentary seats with an agenda focused primarily on animal rights. As of January 1, 2007 the Party for the Animals has 6,370 members."
