Petition Review animal cruelty laws to include lifetime ban and a prison sentence

A lifetime ban on animal/pet ownership should be introduced for severe cases of animal cruelty. Also, for severe cases of cruelty, longer prison sentences should be considered. The current laws should be harsher to deter owners of animals being cruel to their pets.
