The practice of medically unnecessary surgeries on our companion animals has finally been prohibited. This result affirms that the comfort of our pets must carry more weight than human convenience. We should remain attentive as these regulations are implemented to ensure the safety of every animal remains the primary priority.

This petition is intended to stop surgical mutilation of dogs and cats. Ear cropping, devocalization, tail docking and declawing are painful, risky surgeries that cause great suffering and even death without any benefit for the animal; they are done for human convenience and profit only. Declawed cats and devocalized dogs and cats are abandoned just like any other animal, often when past their prime for breeding or exhibition. Surgery on defenseless companion animals would be permissible only as a last resort to treat injury, congenital abnormality or disease, and would require that a licensed vet submit a certificate of medical necessity. Cette pétition est destinée pour arrêter la mutilation chirurgicale des chiens et des chats. L'emblavage d'oreille, le devocalization, l'amarrage de queue et declawing sont des cabinets de consultation douloureux et risqués qui entraînent la grandes douleur et même mort sans n'importe quel avantage pour l'animal ; ils sont faits pour la convenance humaine et profitent seulement. Des chats declawed et les chiens et les chats assourdis sont abandonnés juste comme n'importe quel autre animal, souvent quand après leur perfection pour l'élevage ou l'exposition. La chirurgie sur les animaux sans défense de compagnon serait permise seulement en dernier recours pour traiter des dommages, l'anomalie congénitale ou la maladie, et exigerait qu'un vétérinaire autorisé soumettent un certificat de nécessité médicale.

Reaching five hundred signatures marks a serious turning point for the animals we aim to protect. Seeing this level of engagement reminds me that many people find these procedures as unnecessary and troubling as I do.

Moving toward five hundred signatures serves as a reminder that many people recognize the unnecessary pain caused by these procedures. If we keep the momentum steady we will have a much stronger foundation when presenting this case to those in positions of authority.

The momentum behind this effort shows how many people recognize that these procedures prioritize human convenience over animal well-being. We are drawing near to our first hundred signatures and reaching this threshold will serve as a vital signal that our request cannot be ignored.
