It's pretty much redefining what anmals they want to consider pets and legal to own. They are pretty much, from what I read saying that anything other than farm animals and dmoestic dogs and cats they want to redifine as being wild animals and making it illegal to own or breed them anymore. It does say that if you already live there and own such a "wild animal" you may petition and pay for a license to keep the animal for the rest of its life if you include all the info about the animal, that you agree to not breed it and after it dies no more....I think I read that right and it's [censored] I agree...

they are excluding a lot of pets if that is what it is saying. at my vet my hamster was considered an exotic. that law doesn't seem like it would be followed even if it was passed.

It would still be a huge worry for Missourians, as basically nothing other than dogs and cats and a few small animals would be legal in the state. And it would depend very much on local animal control as to how close they choose to follow it. Although I signed as well, signing an online petition isn't going to do it. We need to be writing letters and e-mails to our representatives for our voices to be heard on this. Here is a link to the MO House: http://www.house.mo.gov/I have already sent an e-mail and will be sending letters to each of my Representatives offices so that I know they see it. Please remember to be respectful when writing, as angry/abrasive responses to this will not get very far.

If we never loved, then maybe we would never feel pain. Love anyway. It's worth it.

As long as we have HUGE groups diving our politicians it is very hard to make them see things thru the average Americans eyes. Just do a google search "peta against wild animals as pets" and you will see what I am talking about. I don't know about you, but not one member of their group has ever shown up at my door to see how my babies are faring. Oh well I guess they are experts on animals rights and protection.

They've listed Parrots, Ferrets, if you have a dog that's half-wolf, any kind of primate ...
The list goes on and on! I've never seen "companion animal" defined so narrowly! Wow!
There needs to be a HUGE stink about this!

Peta is against any animal being kept as a pet... wild or domesticated... Nueter untill they are none... doesn't mean rescues, it means pets.

Yes - because the PETA extremists believe that any animal is better off dead than in captivity.

I just signed it myself. I cannot believe they are now trying to tell us what type of animal we can have. Its just not right how much power some people have. I don't get why they would even try to get this into law. I realize I do not live in MO but I don't want my state or any other telling who can own what type of pets.

I have a friend whos friend houses 19 rescue monkeys. She takes all the time out of her life to give these primates a better life. PETA found out where she lived and protested out in front of her house for 30 days. She was forced to move. None of them even took the time to realize what she was doing. How she was giving abused animals a second chance. Fixing others mistakes! They could never survive out in the wild after what they had been through but PETA thinks just that....Dead over captivity! How narrow minded could you be?
