This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The decision about whether to sell pets or not is a matter for Gumtree, which is a private company.

You could try contacting Gumtree directly to ask them to change their policy.

Alternatively, you could start a petition asking Parliament to pass a law restricting the sale of animals on the internet.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
