      Adopting non-human animals that would otherwise be killed for lack of facilities to care for them is basically the only way a vegan can end up with individual custody.

      That’s still owning an animal when it hasn’t consented to being owned.

        Veganism is centered around minimizing harm either directly or indirectly. Why are you so focused on consent?

          Maybe the better question is why don’t you care about consent?

            Well I do, but my cat really doesnt. She never consented to any of the food ive given her now I think of it. She just eats regular friskies though, cause she’s a sloppy bitch and thats the way she likes it.

        Is it? I can open my front door, and my dog will just stand there and look out. If there’s a squirrel, she’ll chase after it, but then come right back.

        That seems like consent to me.

          Have you ever seen a photo of a huge elephant tied by a rope to a stake in the ground? If you have you might have wondered how that tiny stake and rope could hold such an enormous, powerful creature.

          You might have thought it was some high-tensile steel rope with the stake buried 10 feet into the ground. But then you look, and no. It’s just a wooden stake and a frayed-looking rope.

          How can this be?

          While young and weak an elephant is tied by a heavy chain to an immovable steel stake. No matter how hard the young elephant tries to pull the stake from the ground or break the chain, it cannot. From then on no matter how big and strong the elephant gets it believes that when it’s tied to a stake it cannot move.

          As long as the stake is there it is powerless.
