It seems to me that if you live in an area that outlaws owning a certain breed of dog, then you are at fault for buying that dog in the first place. If Diz died (ouch!) and I lived in a town that banned owning Singapuras, I would get another type of cat - or more probably a moggie, to save it from being put down by an over-crowded shelter. Now Singas have a definite type - they have noticeable character traits which I adore, but I would not risk a cat I own being killed.

So how come people aren't spaying their restricted breeds and the numbers dropping? Surely these numbers can't all come from people moving in from out of state (a very harsh situation I admit). As usual, irresponsible people cause the problem, but they're rarely the ones to suffer.
