Hi all im writting as a friend to animals and as a animal lover and Breeder.
I feel in the long run on this Bill we will loose all the domestic cats dogs and shows for such .
When i have a litter of Kittens and sale a Pet it is 12 weeks old already altered and had his /her shots .
Most of the breeders i hang and know do the same actually all of them i hang with do.
this bill while trying to Nail the Mills would ruin it for the responsible Breeders as well. since 1 we alter our pets we place in good homes and we Have tight contracts that we Inforce. I also do puppy home checks cat home checks and took in 5 strays last yr and found them homes . Here is the bill and a Link to oppose it . it is in cali now But soon your state. Tammy
his is no joke and seriously needs all of our help. This effects us all, both pet owners and breeders alike!
California Alert -- Mandatory Spay/Neuter.
The new draft of AB 1634 is out, and it's worse than the original. NO
registry is accepted statewide, and the exemption to keep a cat whole is
impossible for cat fanciers to achieve (for example, as it's worded you
have to show kittens under the age of 4 months). The other side is
having a major press event Monday, and the first State Assembly
Committee hearing is on Tuesday, April 10.
We are now asking fanciers and friends to sign the "Dog & Cat Owners Say
No to AB 1634" petition at
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/414897802. The other side is
using an all out online petition campaign, and we are fighting fire with
fire. Our online petition is being supported by dog and cat fanciers.
We can't beat the other side's financial backing, but we can generate a
*massive* grass-roots effort to show our opposition. Numbers count! We
need you now.
If you see any other petitions online, either for or against, they are
not us. We need to all sign the same petition or the effects will be
diluted. This has become a national campaign. The other side is not
limiting signatures to California, so neither are we. We want fanciers
all over the world to sign this petition before the hearing on Monday.
Please follow the link and sign the petition. Have your spouse,
significant other or partner sign. Have your kids sign, your neighbors,
your kitten buyers...... At cat show this weekend announce we are doing
a massive petition push, and ask them to check this list for details. DO
NOT BE FOOLED BY IMITATORS.

P.S. And if you do live in California, have you contacted your state
representative yet? California clubs, have you written your opposition
letters to the committee?
