Sign the petition, stop poisoning in Cabo Verde

If you believe in the humane treatment of all living beings and understand that cruel poisoning is not the solution to controllling dog and cat populations please sign this petition.

Despite agreeing that poisoning doesn't work (and has never worked on Sal) and committing to supporting neutering programmes (the only proven solution), the city hall, health department and tourism department still threaten to kill innocent animals in this cruel way to solve a problem that has a better solution.

The petition will be presented to these authorities.  Tourism is the most important industry in Sal, please help us to demonstrate that visitors do not support this practice.

Dogs and cats don't have a voice but you can speak for them.
