If they had their way, no one would have pet cats, dogs or anything. Their name, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is a misnomer and they have a pretty ugly history. Do some research.

"Captive animals"... LOL...!! My best friend told me back twenty years ago that the SPCA's real agenda was to do away with all forms of private pet ownership. I told her she was crazy, but it looks like she was right. I want you to tell me how the animal will survive in the wild (especially after being de-clawed)? Not mention, many of our pets wouldn't even be here if it were not for the demand for ownership. They were f.cking BRED to be owned. Stupid moronic SOBs...
Speak out against any and all animal rights groups. Do whatever you can against them. It's the best thing you kan do for the future of private pet ownership..

If it was up to me - there are plenty of people that should *not* be allowed to have any critters - period. :-( I'm totally against using any animals in labs, too. Kathy & Toma girl in spirit...>^.,.^<
Lynne - 02 Feb 2007 19:37 GMT > I'm totally against using any > animals in labs, too. I'm not. I'm firmly against treating them inhumanely and I'm against uneccessary cosmetics and hair care products testing, but testing pharmaceuticals on humans just isn't possible. So what would you propose we do to develop life saving medications and treatments? My son wouldn't be alive if it weren't for animal testing.

Well unless you truly value and protect all forms of life, including insects and spiders, I'd call bullshit on that. Are you a vegan? Do you own anything made of animal products? Do you feed your cats a strict vegan diet? (If the answer to that last one is yes, I'd say you really shouldn't have cats, by the way, because you are doing them a disservice...)
I love animals far more than the average person, but I am a proponent of humane medical testing on animals and always will be. Let me stress _medical_ and _humane_, for clarification. It's foolish to think we can develop life saving medicines and treatments without it. Testing on humans does occur, but only at the proper stage of development of the product. Do you propose we risk killing people to do early testing of new drugs? People already die during clinical trials, imagine what would happen if they were the first test subjects? Imagine the lawsuits and the resulting cost of medicines! Or, wait, do you propose we don't test drugs at all?? To suggest either approach is quite naive.
If you take any medications for your MS, they were tested on animals. By using them, you are benefiting from something you are against. Again, foolish. Also, hypocritical.

I don't know why you are so pissed at me. Yes - I do have things that were made from animal products. And - *NO* - I don't feed my cats a vegan diet. The way I live my life is to try to leave as small of a footprint as I can. I gave up beef & pork 10 yrs ago & the only meat that I eat sometimes would be some fish. I'm not perfect but, at least I know that.

No - I don't take any meds for my M.S. - I'm P.P (Primary Progressive) & the drugs that are used anymore are not recommended for P.P. type. Besides I don't have any health care - I'm not poor enough for help in this country. I think calling me a hypocrite isn't very nice but, that's fine if that's how you feel toward me.

I'm not pissed, and I'm definitely not perfect either! You are reading emotion into my posts that simply isn't there. I think you are naive and foolish about this issue, but I'm not suggesting you are naive and foolish in general. I don't know anything about you, except that you are an animal lover. I respect that, and I understand why you would feel the way that you do about animal testing, but I don't believe you have thought about all aspects of the issue. I noticed that you didn't respond to my questions about what you would suggest other than testing drugs on animals. You see, I really can't think of any feasible alternatives. Maybe one day, but that day is not here yet.

I think Cybercat asks a valid question. People who speak out against animal testing usually mean well but don't have a full understanding of the reality of it all. You threw out a statement in a discussion group. It is being discussed now.
Abolishing medical testing on animals is just not possible. At least not in anyway I am aware of. OTOH, abolishing the testing of cosmetics, etc. is something that should have been done a long time ago, IMO.
All that aside, if you need medication that you are not getting, you could possibly get them by volunteering for clinical trials. These are the last step before FDA approval and release to the public, and because of animal (and other) testing, it is generally very safe--but not always (nothing is, really). If you qualify, you would get the added bonus of having free medical care by a physician, related to the study, and your travel expenses would be paid. If you find you are suffering more than you should, you might consider looking into it.

She was always there for me & now she isn't there. So now every time some thing happens it's the first time that I am going through it without Toma. If anybody out there has or is going through that - they'll understand what I'm talking about. I use to put my face in her fur & kiss her little head & now I don't know what to do. We've been together ever since she was born on Aug. 31, 1991. Anyway - I'm basically home bound & I live out in the middle of no where - miles from where they would be running any clinical trials. I don't go anywhere. Plus - like I said people that are P.P. are basically a lost cause. It's just the way it goes. Kathy

I really do know how you feel. My 20-year old died in 2001. I still grieve for her.
Two months after she died, I went to a shelter and adopted a young adult cat. Maybe when you are ready, you could let another little sweetie into your life. So many need the kind of love you have to give.

I'm sorry that you lost your 20 yr old - it's so hard. :-( CRF is a horrible disease & it seems to be way too common anymore. We do have other cats but, they are outside cats. Toma didn't want any other critters living inside & since she was my house cat we did it her way. I've been working on trying to see if one of them would be willing to learn to use a litter box.

The website shows plenty of pictures of dogs in the thing, but no cats. They do mention cats in one part of the description.

But this response seemed genuine and helpful:
<< Thank you for contacting PETA about the animal cruelty video you found on YouTube.com.
We share your concern about this important issue; we have received many complaints about this video. The information has been forwarded to the appropriate staffers in our Domestic Animal and Wildlife Rescue & Information (DAWR&I) Department for their review.
We also recommend you voice your concern by filing a complaint at http://www.ic3.gov, a Web-based reporting center developed by the FBI to combat Internet fraud and other forms of internet crime, being sure to stress the influence that this video may have on additional cases of cruelty. To learn more about actions you can take in response to Web sites depicting cruelty to animals, see http://www.PETA.org/actioncenter/onlinecruelty.asp.
For more information about how you can help animals, please visit PETA’s Web site http://www.PETA.org/actioncenter.
Thanks again for bringing this issue to our attention and for all you do to help animals!

They understand the power of mind control, especially when coupled with the vehicle of total mass-media support. Something that they wish for desperately, but thankfully as of this writing do not yet have. It's 'save the whales' today. A cause that most of sheep in this country went right down the primrose path with. But tomorrow it'll be... 'the law says you have to be a vegetarian because animals are people too'. You'd better watch where your step falls when lending any, and I do mean ANY support to these people. They're not crazy. They're evil. And they want more... MUCH more.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Use your brain, if you have one.
