Elizabeth.
Sorry I didn't get back to you. It was held yesterday. We had a long discussion, especially any alternatives the pet store owners had to offer, including the idea of somehow certifying certain stores to sell animals (similar in concept to taxi medallions, with a limited number of certifications allowed in the city and stringent requirements to get the certification), limiting any ban to national chains, having adoption fairs with various rescue groups at pet stores, pet stores taking small animals from ACC, and a ban that only applies to new stores (existing stores grandfathered in as long as owner remains the same).
We'll meet next Friday, not sure when, to continue the discussion. We're hoping to get more rescues to attend that meeting. Would you be able to make that meeting? -- Sally

Hi, Sally-
We just can't get anyone who's available midday on a weekday but both Tammy & Karen (cc'd) would attend if this could be rescheduled to this Sunday, 8/1.

Hi Elizabeth,
The idea is this is a small group, so it's just Rick French and his wife from Animal Co, and John Ito from Animal Connection on Judah. I'm hoping someone from ACC will be there (haven't heard back from them yet), as well as myself and Philip Gerrie. Also the woman from the WIngs Foundation. So, if a few from your organization want to come, that'd be great. The idea behind this is to just see what, if any, common ground there may be from various people involved in the issue and to brainstorm ways all the different groups could work together to save animals and increase adoptions. -- Sally

Hi, Sally-
If it was anything that I could change/rearrange so that I could attend, I would but this is an immovable schedule conflict.
How many pet sellers do you expect? Mickaboo would actually like to send a couple of people (if we can find folks that can work it schedule-wise). Are other rescue folks invited as well?

Hi, Sally-
I am unavailable all day Friday. I have shared this invite with other Mickaboo leaders in the hopes that someone will be able to join you. I will let you know as soon as I do.
Thanks,
Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth,
Would you be willing/able to meet with me, Philip Gerrie, and reps of pet stores and ACC to discuss the proposed ban on the sale of animals at pet stores? The idea is to exchange ideas and perspectives and to see if there is any common ground for the various sides of the issue. We're looking to meet this Friday, July 30 at about 1:30 or so somewhere in Noe Valley (likely a restaurant or coffeeshop). Can you join us? -- Sally
