Ban the sale of live animals in all uk pet shops

Petition Details

It's currently too easy for the general public to impulse buy pets many of which end up being sold, rehomed, surrendered to rescues (or sometimes worse.)

All too often profit comes before welfare with many pet shops.

Pet shops keep breeders in business, leaving rescues to pick up the pieces.

Additional Information

Many animals are bought and sold from pet shops without correct and accurate knowledge and information regarding many care areas such as diet, housing, environment, companionship etc.

For example: herd animals sold singularly to live alone, with inadequate accommodation, incorrectly sexed, of ill health.

Things have to change.
