Rejected petition Ban pet shops from selling animals

Pet shops such as pets at home or small pet shops will sell exotic and furry pet to anyone that comes in through the door, they don’t check their ID, environment the pet will live in etc. Most animals end up being let out into the wild or left neglected in gardens or abandoned houses.

More details

1.5 million animals are euthanised each year, banning all pet shops from selling animals will significantly reduce this and save lives of innocent animals
