"Individuals who post advertisements to sell animals on forums and online classifieds may be committing an offence under Section 48 of the Animals and Birds Act which states that no person shall keep in captivity for sale, export or exhibition any animal or bird in any place that has not been licensed.
Commercial breeding of animals can only be carried out on farms licensed by AVA. Pet owners who regularly breed and advertise to sell pets can be considered as commercial breeders. An individual convicted of breeding and selling animals from his premises without a licence from AVA can be fined up to $5,000 upon conviction."
Needless to explain further, no sale of live animals will be allowed in Flowerpod Community.... All sale threads of such will be deleted and forbidden in Flowerpod Community...
We encourage adoption instead, as there are many homeless animals waiting to be adopted.
