note:I agree wholeheartedly; no pets sold on eBay! It is not fair to them. Too much can go too wrong for the innocent animals.

Subject: [socalsiameserescue] E-bay to set Pet Classified Section
E-bay is considering starting to allow animal listings on e-bay. If you've ever spent 10 minutes at an animal shelter - you'll know this is a bad idea.
It reeks of puppy mill heaven. Don't know what a puppy mill is? Thank your lucky stars you've been spared that nightmare. Spend an evening or two watching
Animal Cops on Animal Planet - you'll be introduced to it. I'm not A PETA freak, don't have any problem with legitimate breeders responsibly selling pets.
I've been in rescue long enough now to hear some of the most horrifying stories about mill mommies. Each story eats a tiny piece of what's left of my
heart.
I don't pass along much and ask that you pass it along - this I am passionate about.Even if you aren't interested in signing the petition - PLEASE KEEP
THIS E-MAIL MOVING until E-bay understands.
Go here for the petition

If you've already seen this and signed - please pass it along again! We might pick up someone we orignally missed!
