    The full images really aren’t that bad. If sexyman convinced you to spay/neuter, that’s a good thing.

      “Adopt, don’t shop” and “spay/neuter your pets” is a massive step up from “shearing sheep brutally injures them” and “having a pet equals slavery”.

      Keep it up Peta, you might be normal one day

        I don’t think you understand how peta works. It’s not a monolith who does their own work. If you want to do some animal rights activism, peta will help you acquire supplies and support publication. Give everyone a voice, and you’re bound to find some takes you don’t like.

        I’ve gotten assistance from peta before, and they’re way more helpful than any other org.

        I totally disagree with owning animals, but I know that’s just a lost battle. Plus, some animals really do depend on us after many years of adaptions. It sucks but it is reality.

    These have the energy of a man trying to recover from a rough breakup after a years long relationship by adopting a dog and making his whole life about it to fill the void

    They probably do bang the animals. They don’t have a problem killing them.

    PETA euthanized “2,130 sick, suffering, dying, feral, aggressive or otherwise unadoptable animals" in 2022. Last years numbers aren’t out yet.

    Also, they don’t define what “unadoptable” means.

    For comparison, the Norfolk public animal shelter (NACC), which accepts all animals just like the PETA shelter in the same county, has a much lower kill rate.

    Their free/low cost spay/neuter program is wonderful. Unfortunately, they’re too cheap to care for the animals left with them.

    BTW, NACCs intake rate has increased, contradicting PETAs claims that their shelter is doing all the heavy lifting.

    PETAs one and only animal shelter is responsible for 11% of ALL the surrendered animals being euthanized across the entire state of Virginia.

      Your charts are irrelevant without numbers for pets successfully rehomed. Are they just building a bigger prison?

      Euthanasia is not inherently bad unless you are more worried about your own emotions than those of the animals in question.
