| Message | And how, pray tell, will this agency know whether people are the owners of said animals without registration? The current laws are there to protect the animals from harm rather than allowing people to do with them whatever they wish. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
