ANIMAL WELFARE from a Pet Store
In Response To: The SPCA talks out of both sides of its mouth ()

Pets West, a very good pet supply store in Victoria has a moratorium on the sale of rabbits for the week before Easter.
Lisa, the owner, was on CFAX radio this afternoon.
She mentioned that rabbits can live 10 years, need socialization, proper food, proper cleaning, exercise and more.
All this from a Pet Store....
Funny, to me it sounded an awful lot like ANIMAL WELFARE.

Thank you Shirley Henderson
An animal in a cage is not a pet - it's a prisoner
SPCA: "Once again the BC SPCA is urging the public to refrain from buying rabbits..." yet they partner with a business that is doing just the opposite

Seriously... has the SPCA improved at all?
Same old same old...Still a long way to go...
Under the radar: Is the SPCA doing more for Vancouver's yard dogs?
Couldn't trust the SPCA's figures then - can't now
