Success: PetSmart Stops Supporting Abusive Animal Mill

PetSmart Mike Mozart

Target: Michael J. Massey, CEO of PetSmart

Goal: Thank PetSmart for ending its business relations with abusive animal mill.

An animal mill was recently investigated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) where over 100 violations were discovered. Allegedly, Holmes Farm has frozen animals alive and has not provided adequate food, shelter, water, or medical care for many of the animals. In addition, the USDA found decomposing bodies on the premises.

Holmes Farm was a supplier for PetSmart, and in the wake of the investigation PetSmart remained quiet on the issue. Thankfully, after public outcry and petitions like this one at ForceChange, PetSmart announced that it will no longer be buying animals from Holmes Farm.

Sign this petition and thank PetSmart for making the smart and compassionate choice. Now, fewer animals will be subjected to the horrors of Holmes Farm.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mr. Massey,

Recently, a supplier of yours came under investigation by the USDA. The USDA discovered over 100 violations, along with decomposing bodies, and over 30 animals in need of medical attention.

Holmes Farm is hell on earth for animals. It is clear the animal mill has no regard for the health and well-being of these animals.

Thankfully, you decided to make the smart and compassionate choice by ending your business relations with Holmes Farm. This is great news. Now, less animals will be subjected to the abuse and neglect that occurs at Holmes Farm.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

Why Comments Are Temporarily Disabled

Due to strict advertising policies enforced by our ad provider, we’ve had to temporarily disable the comments section on all petitions. This change was necessary to protect our ability to continue reaching millions of animal advocates around the world.

We believe in the power of community voices, and we hope to bring comments back permanently and without restrictions. But to do that, we need to reduce our reliance on ad revenue.

The best way to support independent animal advocacy, and help us remove ads altogether, is by becoming a Premium Member.

With your help, we can protect animals and free our platform from corporate ad constraints.
