No More Cats & Dogs For Sale At Pet Shops?

Edward Lim, Shelter Manager, PAWS Animal Welfare Society

No More Cats & Dogs For Sale At Pet Shops?

The Selangor government is planning to ban the sale of cats and dogs in pet stores, to encourage people to adopt instead. We speak to Edward Lim, who is the Shelter Manager of PAWS Animal Welfare Society, to get his perspective on this. Then, we open up the floor to our listeners to share their experiences when it comes to adopting animals, and where they stand on this suggestion by the Selangor government.
