Irvine bans retail sales of dogs, cats
ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER, OCTOBER 11, 2011
The move mirrored actions that have become common across North America as concern mounts over large-scale breeding operations supplying pet stores. Similar prohibitions on shops selling canines and felines have been enacted or proposed recently in several Canadian provinces as well as cities in California, Texas, Missouri and Ohio.
Society is "moving toward a more thoughtful and conscientious approach to animals," speaker Claire Kim said Tuesday night. "This ordinance responds to the spirit of our times."
My Comment for Mayor Kang,
"To Mayor Kang and Irvine Council...BRAVO!...we will remember you taking action to protect your citizens and your stand to maintain a superior quality of living for Irvine residents!! "
What this article failed to mention, was the thunder of standing applause, the tears
of joy and relief from those who dedicate their lives and souls to the never ending
task of saving the homeless animals in Orange County, and a roar of gratitude to
Mayor Kang and Irvine Council , from those who seek superior leadership void of
personal gain, higher ideals than that of current society, and respect for life in a world sold
out to personal agendas.
THANK YOU FOR RESTORING OUR FAITH IN HUMANITY
MAYOR KANG AND COUNCIL OF IRVINE!
