PETCO BOYCOTT

We, your pet owning customers, stand together
in unity to discontinue all patronage of your stores.

. We feel that PETCO Foundation’s president Paul Jolly’s support for the Los Angeles mandatory spay and neuter ordinance along side with the Humane Society of the United States to be completely unacceptable.

. The Humane Society of the United States is an Animal Rights organization that garners monetary support from its well meaning donors under false pretenses. This donated money is not used to help shelter pets. It is used instead to facilitate the creation of anti- animal use laws nationwide that endanger the future of pet ownership and erode pet owner constitutional rights. The mandatory spay and neuter Los Angeles ordinance is an example of such a law.

. Laws such as the one signed by Mr. Jolly do nothing to reduce shelter deaths, public expenditures on animal control services or protect the health of the animals themselves. Surgical procedures should be discussed and scheduled on an individual case basis with a licensed professional- not a politician. And certainly not the President of the PETCO Foundation. What exactly are Mr. Jolly’s qualifications to publicly support this ordinance? Is he a licensed veterinarian? A breeder? A rescuer? Or is he merely another victim of animal rights fanatics like Mr. Wayne Pacelle?

We cannot further patronize a company that supports such policy.

PETCO- "Where our pets will NEVER go!"
