Title: If you have ever complained about the likes of G**mtree or those Facebook 'pets for sale' sites.....
Post by: Rosella moggy on February 19, 2016, 10:32:46 AM: Please take 5 minutes to read this article then email your feelings about online pet sales. You have until March 12th to express your feelings. If you have ever complained about the likes of gumtree or those Facebook 'pets for sale' sites, this is your chance to have your say!

I have just sent an email to 'animalwelfare.consultations@defra.gsi.gov.uk' and my local MP. Hope others can find the time to do this also :)

He was only 10 months and was unneutered and hadnt seen a vet since leaving his breeder who i managed to track down. Although a lot younger than I wanted he looked the way I wanted a birman to look and couldnt stand the thought of a BSB getting him.

Post by: Mymblesdaughter on February 21, 2016, 18:03:24 PM: I've sent an email. I'm not going to bother to email my MP as she is hopeless and has decided not to bother replying to emails and letters. I emailed her regarding dogs being imported from Eastern Europe and she said she didn't think the rules needed changing. :censored:
