Section 750. Declaration of policy

The  legislature  hereby  finds and
  declares that the relationships that humans develop with  other  members
  of the animal kingdom that are taken into our homes and kept as pets are
  unique  and  special.  These  relationships  can  enrich  our  lives and
  increase our happiness. Even after the death of a pet, human  attachment
  to  the memory of the pet often remains very strong and many people feel
  the need to memorialize their love for their animal by burying their pet
  in a pet cemetery. Pet cemeteries, their  managers  and  owners  have  a
  special responsibility to their customers who have entrusted their pets'
  remains  with  them.    These  pet  cemeteries  have a duty to act in an
  ethical  and  lawful  manner  to  prevent  grieving  pet   owners   from
  experiencing  further  any  emotional  pain  or  financial manipulation.
  Perpetrations of fraud against grieving pet owners are unconscionable.
    The legislature further finds and declares that  the  people  of  this
  state  have  a  vital  interest  in  the  establishment, maintenance and
  preservation of pet cemeteries  and  pet  crematoriums  and  the  proper
  operation  of  the  businesses  and individuals which own and manage the
  same. This article is determined an exercise of  the  police  powers  of
  this  state  to  protect  the well-being of our citizens, to promote the
  public welfare, to promote the health of the public and to  prevent  pet
  cemeteries   and  pet  crematoriums  from  falling  into  disrepair  and
  dilapidation and becoming a burden upon the community.
