Help save our pets from harmful fireworks that affect them traumatically , help our voices be heard for the pets who can't speak. Every signature helps.This petition is only against fireworks that are excessively loud and above the legal requirement in South Africa and particularly in the city that I reside in. (Umhlanga,Ethekweni,Kwazulu-Natal Province,Republic Of South Africa)
This petition is not against those responsible citizens who use fireworks legally, that are not harmful to pets welfare ( especially animals hearing - loud noise above 190 decibels can cause loss of hearing as well cause stress and other fearful phobia )

I really never thought this would gain so much speed and honestly watching the notifications pop up is just wild (my poor dog was actually barking at my phone screen earlier while it buzzed). It just keeps going and I am honestly so stunned that so many people feel this same stress for their pets during those loud nights.

Damage is greater than the enjoyment. My animals are still struggling with fear issues since New Years Fireworks. It is an unneccessary practice.

Fireworks hurt or scare both wildlife and the elderly or sickly. They are abusive, disturbing and unnecessary.

Fully support this, something needs to be done to help protect our fur babies that get traumatised every year by these deafening fireworks.

I am against all noisey fireworks Government must implement a total Ban on Fireworks that make any Noise. Replacement Noise Free Fireworks are available World Wide and can easily be imported and be a legal Replacement for the entire Country

Animals are innocent, they also deserve a safe and happy life just like human beings. As the most empowered species, let us not harm the defenseless.
