Stop Gumtree from allowing Live animal posts to stop dog and cat Baiting.
So often people list Dog's, Cats and an abundance of other live animals either for sale or for free on the public listing site Gumtree. So often these animals become the victim of abusive owners, baiting and worse, death. New owners that haven't been vetted lead to this and it needs to stop.

You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The decision about whether to sell pets or not is a matter for Gumtree, which is a private company.
You could try contacting Gumtree directly to ask them to change their policy.
Alternatively, you could start a petition asking Parliament to pass a law restricting the sale of animals on the internet.
