They should start making people sign contracts to own an animal...

You are not the troll I am speaking of .. We will feed you scraps still.

BarelyBreathing · 03-25-12, 01:19 PM

None that I know of. I mean contracts like this animal is forever yours unless you find a good home. If you fail to do so, you go to jail or pay a huge fine which will go straight to shelters and such.

Petco and Petsmart require you to sign contracts, as does every animal shelter. Most of the better rescues and breeders microchip the new pet and make you sign a contract stating that if you can no longer take care of your animal, then it either has to go back to their facility or to an owner that THEY approve first.

Petco and petsmart are worthless contracts. They make you sign them if you are buying a live feeder mouse also. They mean nothing. They only do it so that if you bring the animal back they have the info they want.

I feel like those aren't even contracts...

BarelyBreathing · 03-25-12, 01:36 PM

Yeah, pretty much. I've had to be like "I'm buying this animal to kill it" and they've still made me sign. But a lot of good rescues and breeders enforce those contracts, and people have ended up in court and the animals taken because of a breach of that contract.

EXCELLENT! People do care

BarelyBreathing · 03-25-12, 01:42 PM

A lot of people really, really do. A lot of people don't. It's great when they do, and heartbreaking when they don't.

Indeed. Killing is a must to survive. I had to buy 2 adorable mice from petco. Signed a contract, wanted to keep them but they had to be snake food.

People believe they are dieties above all else on earth. No every living creature from the ant to the bunny to the eagle are all dieties. People are the most stupid about it because we believe we are the chosen ones. The meek shall inherit the earth.

How would you feel in jail?

Animals die from stress due to boredome, over-stimulation, over-eating because of boredome, lack of companionship. Sound familiar? Go to the zoo.

^^^^^
regarding snakes the above is completely incorrect...!!

i've heard of cats eating corn snakes

i don't know what type of snake you have but.....

my carpet pythons would kill and eat,a cat or a ferret

if your seriously letting all these animals free roam,then at some point their will be deaths

thats if this threads not a wind up

very irrasponsible animal keeping on your part and a complete lack of research

re zoo's
they do create ecosystems but ONLY WITH COMPATABLE ANIMALS,WITH THE SAME HUSBANDRY REQUIREMENTS.....!!!

cheers shaun

Since you know your Bible so well what do you think"man shall have dominion over all of the earth " means?
