Petition

Stop firework sale to the public and home use, pets and animals are suffering

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Make the use of fireworks banned for public sale and only be available to organised professionals on Bon fire night
For a public display only
Pets are terrified and it’s not humane for us to put them through this each year
Understandably people want to see the dazzling show of a display of fireworks which is fine, however this can be achieved at a public display without distressing and mentally scaring pets and animals to where there quivering in their homes and being sick through pure fright, and cannot be consoled as they don’t understand.
