I am trying to improve the quality of life for for Bettas in Petsmart. Please sign my petition. The more signatures the better. I bought one last month & I see them just laying there cold and bored it was so hard to choose one, it was like picking out a puppy from the pound

It took UB two hours to learn how to swim "forward" He is now a happy little fellow swiming in his 6 gallon tank ;D I still remember him explorig and staring at his silk plants and decor it was a whole new world for him.

I hate those little cups they are so inhumane and stressful

I gladly signed your petition and welcome to HB.

Sweetvegan74, while your idea is noble one, I would like you to please consider the following:

1. Online petitions don't work well because there's no paper trail.

2. If you really want to make a difference, stop shopping at a store, and report them to the better business bureau and/or the humane society, and get other like-minded people to do the same. If you want a company change its ways then exercise your power as a consumer to not shop there.

3. We discourage these types of post on HealthyBetta as stated here:

I will also gladley sign your petetion. But amanichen is right you should do the things he listed because petsmart will easily say you made those names up and blow you off.

They do in my area as well. Actually they have one of the best kept fish departments of about 10 stores I have to pick from around here.

If you want to sign the petition, then go for it. This thread is going to be closed at this point however for the reasons amanichen mentioned above. Thank you for your understanding on the matter.
