Stolen cat sold to pet shop - need legal advise
Dear Friends,
Perhaps somebody could advise should the above happened to any one of us. I've had an experiences once when my cats got stolen from my house. My back door wire grill being cut, just enough for my kitten to pass through. After two weeks, accidentaly found her in a petshop. To reclaim the cat, we did a police report, produce the early photo of the cat and paying the petshop.
I wonder if this is the right thing to do. Does legal options can be exercised here if :-
1. The pet shop simply buy cats from strangers
2. The pet shop didn't ask the seller to produce prove ownership of the cat
3. The pet shop charging the original owner cost of boarding and the price being paid to the seller
Thanks.
