Notice From AVA:
The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) is the regulatory authority that safeguards animal welfare in Singapore. In this respect, one area under AVA’s purview is the display and sale of pets.
We would like to advise that the individuals who post advertisements to sell animals on forum pages may be committing an offence under Section 48 of the Animals and Birds Act 2002 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.
The Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority (AVA) would like to inform the public that the 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.
We seek your assistance to stop the illegal sale of animals over the Internet. You can assist us by deleting postings by net users who regularly advertise ornamental fishes, birds and rodents for sale in forums and providing us with their details.
1) Adopters must be genuine and must have some experience with handling the pet of choice. if possible they should have some pics to prove their past experience.
2) Adoption is for the good of the pet not for making money. no money should be involved in any adoption other than accessories that the pet might need. e.g carrying container.
3) No adoption of cross breeds are allowed for small animals.
4) adopters should provide full details of the pet they wish to rehome. pics would be best.
failure to abide by these rules will result in immediate closure of the thread. thank you for your kind understanding
