This is SO sad please read it.
Did you know that 66 million animals die every year because they are not cared for correctly? Thats about 181,00 dieing a day.
Regular people like you or sombody you know are buying small animals every day without knowing how to properly care for them. Pet stores tell owners that their animal will live under the wrong conditions for a short amount of time, when the animal people are actually buying should live for about 15 years, depending on the animal. Almost every person has bought a pet like this at one time or another in their life. When animals are sold this way they are called "trash" pets. Most "trash" pets die before the age of 3 and die a slow and pain full death. Even when people try to do research for caring for their new pet correctly they find miss leading books and websites that say their animal will live for 20 years under horrible conditions. Ever since about the 50's people have been buying pets in this fashion of impulse sales. The sales of "trash" pets fool people because they have such a small price tag when buying the animal itself, but when you add up all the costs that you "should" be spending on this living creature they can well be over $100. People don't relies that such small critters can cost so much. To get a full feel for the "trash" pet trade just go to this site, geocities.com/nottrashpets.
If you want to stop the mass killing of animals please sign this petition. When you sign please put your full name and email address. What it means to sign is that you understand what a trash pet is and will not take part in keeping an animal this way from this day forth. You will spread the word of "trash" pets to help it become a household word. Lastly when you sign this petition you are saying you will not buy and products that endorse the keeping of any animal poorly so that it has a shortened life.

Please pass this email on. Do not just forward, copy and paste so more people will read this. Please do email it to me if there are 300 signatures. Nothing "bad" will happen to you if you don't pass this on like so many other emails, but think about all the lives you will be saving if you tell as many people as possible. Lastly think of all the 66 million animals you have let down if you do not pass this on. Thank you.
