Promote Pet Education for Better Animal Care

Promote Pet Education for Better Animal Care

Target:
Everyone who is thinking of buying or adopting a pet
Sponsored by: 
If you sign this petition, you are pledging to be well educated before you get an animal, and to care for it the best you possibly can, and hopefully, this way we can reduce the numbers of pets in shelters.

Here is a link to the story that brought tears to my eyes, and convinced me to start this petition: http://www.angelfire.com/mi/ferretsetc/kingqueenie.html

WARNING:  This story goes in to detail about the life of King once he made it to the shelter.  The details are graphic and quite disturbing.  There are photos.
