Comparison of ways to buy pets
Buying cats and dogs from licensed sellers may be more expensive, but these businesses are regulated by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, making them traceable, more secure and reliable. In contrast, although the price may be lower when buying from unknown sellers online, they are likely to be unlicensed and illegal.
