      Ultimately, veganism relies on personal decisions of morality. It’s not fully prescriptive and leaves room for differing opinions. The question here is whether or not the relationship is exploitative.

      This leaves some room for nuance. There’s a difference between purchasing a pet from a breeder, which adds further demand, and adopting an animal that would otherwise be euthanized, for example.

              It actually breaks down into little soot sprites who then immediately get to work building a multi-story wooden gazebo around the place the cat once was.

          Right which is why I said “less harmful than shelters” it’s harm reduction not harmless

            What if the animal is born in your property and never tries to leave because it wants to stay?

              What then? Im not sure what your trying to say here. Animal on my property are my pets? Genuinely don’t know what your hypothetical is meant to address?
