The Catholic Church has never practiced animal sacrifice nor does the Church endorse it. You may be referring to Santeria which is practiced in some Caribbean countries as a form of witchcraft by some claiming to be Catholic but it is not part of the Church and is not approved by the Church. Anything which even hints of superstition is considered as sinful by the Church.
