Ban Big Cat Exploitation

Please sign this petition and Big Cat Rescue will get it in front of the lawmakers who can change the status quo. 

Click HERE to read their story.

I care about exotic cats and want you, as my lawmaker to understand 10 things:

1.  I hate seeing big cats in little cages at zoos or kept as pets.

2.  I do not condone hunting of cougars and bobcats.

3.  I especially detest canned hunts where animals are shot in cages.

4.  I do not want exotic cats to be bred and sold for life in captivity and would support a federal ban on their trade.

5.  I do not believe that big cats should be made to perform in circus and other acts.

6.  I want USDA to stop issuing permits to people so they can circumvent pet laws that the states have enacted to keep big cats out of backyards and basements. 

7. I think it is outrageous that hunters are in charge of protecting wildlife and demand change that puts compassionate people who represent 97% of the population in control.

8.  I want to see a ban on the use of steel jawed traps and an end to fur farming and fur imports.

9.  I want laws that will protect me, my family and the animals.

10. I only vote for animal friendly candidates.
