The West Hollywood City Council unanimously approved an ordinance to ban the sale of cats and dogs Monday evening. However, the city must vote and approve the ordinance a second time at its February 16th meeting, when it is expected to pass. This ordinance prohibits the sale of ALL dogs and cats at companion animal stores.  Stores that sell animals provided to them by a rescue or shelter and stores that breed animals on the premises will be allowed to continue selling the pets. If passed, existing pet stores will have until September 17th to comply.  For complete story click HERE.
