EU Parliament, please help save the lives of strays in ROMANIA ! - The Petition Site



With this petition we kindly ask the EU Parliament to advise the Romanian authorities not to approve these HORRORS :
The Romanian Parliament's Committee for Public Administration Territorial Planning and Ecological Balance intends to make a new law regarding the management of strays....and they want :
- the dogs captured by the dog catchers will be PTS after 14 or maximum 60 days ( those considered dogs for fights, aggressive breeds will be PTS after 48h or 10 days ; those sick will be PTS immediately )

- sick animals will not be given for adoption.
- those who feed or take care of strays will be fined
- the minimum conditions for the captures, living quarters, transport, care ( food and shelter ) WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM the new law
- the clear description of how the euthanasia will be done and what substances are to be used WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM the new law...it will be replaced with " the euthanasia will be done by a specialist ".
- the non profit organizations for animal protection WILL HAVE NO RIGHT to complain about the living conditions of dogs in municipal shelters. the control will be done only by the Sanitary-veterinary Authority.
- the non profit organizations for animal protection WILL HAVE NO RIGHT to capture, take care or spat/neuter strays.
Horrible requirements for adoption from a municipal shelter :
- proof that one has the space necessary to have a pet
- proof that one has enough income to have a pet
- approval from the tenants in the same building that THEY allow you to have pets, and from one's close neighbors that THEY allow you to have more than 2 dogs
- and the adoption fees are astronomical for many Romanians..
I remind you the intentions of the deputies (from Committee of public administration) for dog management: mass incarceration in extermination camps and euthanasia of old, ill, aggressive dogs (considering the continuously abuses against animals from Romania this mean all dogs, they will deem any animal aggressive, without any kind of professional expertize...Aggressiveness can be provoked in any animal , any time, just to justify the killing... ).This is HOW Romania implements the international treaties and conventions....


PLEASE HAVE MERCY AND advise them TO PASS the Legislative Initiative ( Approved in unanimity by the Romanian Senate in 2007 , but held in-debated by this commission for years )

PL- X 912/19.12.2007 with regard to the management of animals ( strays ) which will complete the OUG 155/2001 : this Initiative will impose the IDENTIFICATION, the STERILIZATION, the REGISTRATION, the RETURN IN THE TERRITORY of stray dogs and cats and the building of REAL shelters for old and sick animals and the adoption of any of these animals by people who would like to adopt them.

More in the letter to the Target .
Thank you.

We do NOT want bullfights in Brazil - "Touradas aqui NÃO" - The Petition Site


I was astonished to find out about the intentions of the Major of Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul, in the extreme south of Brazil.
He is promoting the first bullfight ever in Brazil in his city on February 2011.We have too much animal cruelty in Brazil already.We brazilians simply do NOT want to import other countries' cruelty traditions to this country.
At this very moment the world is acting against bullfights and asking for the end of this barbaric tradition.This man's plans must not go ahead. And it cannot become the first of many other similar events. We have already too much work going on against rodeos and other barbaric events that take place in the country.
We have already writen to the local authorities asking for the cancellation of this stupid event. The brazilian laws & Consttitution are on our side.
Please help us by urging the brazilian authorities not to consent to this "innovation", born of a sick mind, whose only concern is Money, with no consideration with animal life.
We do NOT want bullfights anywhere in Brazil.

Save the Arctic Fox from Extinction - The Petition Site

Save the Arctic Fox from Extinction - The Petition Site

    • Target: Janez Potocnik, European Commissioner for the Environment
    • Sponsored by: Care2.com
    Just 150 arctic foxes remain on the European Union's mainland. It was assumed that the arctic fox would move further north as global warming took hold of its habitat, but instead, arctic fox populations are disappearing.

    Scientists think that the arctic fox may be unable to track its shifting habitat. Furthermore, the warmer weather is causing the red fox to invade its territory. The red fox is twice the size of the arctic fox, and can easily overtake its den.

    Global warming is creating a wide variety of stressful situations for all animals, not just the arctic fox. Polar bears, walruses and whales are just a few species endangered by the rapid increase in the global temperature.

    Without stricter greenhouse gas emissions standards for the European Union, the Arctic Fox and others remain at risk for extinction because of climate change. Urge the EU to enforce a greenhouse gas emissions standard and help stop the effects of global warming.
