West Hollywood bans retail sales of dogs and cats | Comments Blog | Los Angeles Times

 

The West Hollywood City Council has put an end to sales of dogs and cats in pet stores.

In an ordinance that passed unanimously Tuesday night, sales of animals in stores are now prohibited in the city.

The ordinance, unanimously approved at its first reading a few weeks ago, is just the latest piece of animal-welfare legislation the city has taken up. In 2003, West Hollywood became the first city in the country to outlaw the declawing of cats.
