Rejected petition Make stricter laws to buy a pet if you have been charged with animal cruelty

Animals are such loving, caring and beautiful things in the world. Why should they be homed to people who are going to harm them time after time again. We wouldn't let a child go in the property of a pedophile or child abuser so why should these animals be allowed? They have no choice. We must help!

More details

We must help make laws stricter on purchasing a pet so we reduce the amount of innocent animals bought to be abused, starved and not looked after properly.
