PETA: We'll Kill Your Cat (And Your Little Dog Too)


It seems that PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, isn't all that it is cracked up to be. According to the The Center for Consumer Freedom , this group which is fiercely anti-fur, eating meat, using animals in entertainment acts, etc., killed a staggering 95.9 percent of the adoptable pets in its care during 2011. Despite years of public outrage over its euthanasia program, the notorious animal rights group has continued killing adoptable animals at its Norfolk, VA headquarters, at an average of 37 pets every week.

According to records from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, PETA killed 1,911 cats and dogs last year while placing just 24 in adoptive homes. Since 1998, a total of 27,751 pets have died at the hands of PETA workers.

“PETA hasn’t slowed down its slaughterhouse operation, even as the group continues to lecture the American public with its phony ‘animal rights’ message,” said Rick Berman, CCF’s Executive Director. “It appears PETA is more concerned with funding its media and advertising antics than finding suitable homes for these dogs and cats.”

Despite its $37.4 million budget, PETA employees make little effort to find homes for the thousands of animals they kill every year.

A 2010 inspection of 290 PETA animal custody records performed by the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services discovered that PETA killed 84 percent of the animals it took control of within only 24 hours. Additionally, the inspection discovered that PETA’s animal shelter didn’t meet PETA’s own published guidelines for running a humane shelter.

“For the 13th year in a row, PETA’s leaders have shown they don’t care about the unlucky dogs and cats that come to its Norfolk facility,” Berman continued. “It’s about time PETA’s ‘shelter’ is reclassified as a slaughterhouse
.”
Perhaps rather than running commercials about men becoming "sex robots" by going vegan, or writing editorials about how the Iditarod is cruel, maybe the hypocrites at PETA should spend some money fixing their own house instead of killing 3 thousand dogs and cats a year.

I would write some more about this subject, but its dinner time and my wife made some delicious steaks (sorry PETA).
