看到一則新聞:本地一個有三十多家分店的連鎖寵物店集團,決定暫停售賣貓狗,改為在店內供人領養被棄置的動物。
集團負責人指,近年本港流浪貓狗數字大增,是因為太多港人買寵物乃一時衝動,後來又輕言放棄飼養,胡亂將貓狗棄於街頭。他認為這件事上,寵物店也有很大責任,因為寵物店乃寵物的源頭。
於是他們下了一個「痛心而不能回頭」的決定,將停止與狗場的合約,轉型不再售賣寵物,改為與動物領養組職合作。而除了領養服務外,亦會以寵物醫療服務及寵物用品零售來配合,成為一站式的寵物服務中心。
這件事,絕對值得鼓掌和表揚!該報道指,去年遭漁農處人道毀滅的狗隻近一萬二千頭,這數字仍未計愛護動物協會的「出手」。每年數以萬計的可愛生命,就如此白白地被奪走;如果你真的喜愛貓狗、喜愛動物,看到些數字,絕對會動容吧!而向來以商業掛帥的寵物店,居然難得地主動關注這個問題,並不惜放棄售賣貓狗的收入去作出對應措施,真的是一個意外驚喜!
我們在講求環保之餘,動物保護其實也是與環保息息相關的課題,政府和教育工作者絕對有義務去加強宣揚這個訊息!
