I have seen where Dogs and cats who are homeless killed on the streets and being trapped. I just wanted to know if you guys think its right to take dogs and cats to the shelters. I'm not very happy about taking dogs and cats to shelters because some can not find homes and then they put the dog or cat to sleep. That does not make me happy at all. I met a homeless dog today and he was very fearful of me at first but I gave him some food and he played with me all day at the College where my dad teaches, and they some shelter people catch the dogs and some have been put down, which I hate, so I try and do everything to keep them from catching the dogs. I'm not fund of Shelters for pets!

WOuld you rather have stray cats and dogs running around the whole ten yard?

Shelters do take care of animals. There are no kill Shelters. Consideirng some shelters are obverrun by unadopted kittens and puppies. We have No Kill shelters here.

The only thing I can say yay to putting down an animal if it is very very sick.

However, Never... EVER give your pet to PETA. PETA will just kill it.

And there are also, of course, some animals that are strays that should be avoided, because they are rabid.

So, you know, beware. Take care.

Shelters are the way to go. Shelters, for the most part, take care of the animals well. Some shelters even have foster programs where volunteers keep animals at their homes until a suitable owner adopts them.

I would encourage people who want a pet to get one from a shelter rather than a pet shop.

Animals are awesome. Even the human animal has its moments.

But PETA is a good organization. They fight against animal cruelty.

Have you not seen this?

Unfortunately, PETA's publicity stunts have branded the organization
as a bunch of kooks and nuts.

Remember "sea kittens"?

:)

Well some of the shelters in Talladega Alabama put some of the dogs down, thats what some teachers at the college say. I don't know that, but if they do I hate. Plus I would not take a dog to shelters for any reason, why? Because when you take them to shelters you have to buy them and it cost to much, plus dogs need to roam free, as my Indian haritage I will say it like this, Before the white came the animals ran free and us Indians and the first white men who were for peace, that is when animals were free to roam the country side and animals were free. People think dogs and other animals need to be in a shelter if they have no home, dogs and other animals need no home the forest is there home, when my family owned dogs we never fenced them in or tied them, we let them roam the woods freely. When my family builds a house on our farm I will ask my parents can I catch a wild horse and a dog, like my Indian heritage, and that is why the Indians were forced off there land and I believe the animals were forced off there land as well, BTW a Wolf will be the first dog I would like :D As you can see I love American Indians and Wolves. I guess this is why I hate shelters.

BTW I have never heard of PETA.

(NOTE these are my opinons)

No I don't know a hill of beans about "sea kittens." In fact I found out not to long ago about PETA. So forgive me if I'm a noob on this delicate subject. I'm not at all an animal craze fan like my sibling but I do pay attention to NPR when they start talking the animal protection thing.

Anyway if it were't for Rachael Leigh Cook and Grace Park (Boomer) I would have no idea what PETA was. To bad Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Michelle Ryan have not taken any PETA ads yet.

Anyway what's the "Sea Kittens" thing all about?

So, it's good that they use scare tactics on children by showing pictures of animals that are mutliated? Is it good that they handed out pamplets such as this? Like every mother wears fur coats.

PETA kills more then they save. PETA has killed countless or kittens and puppies and threw them in dumpsters. They throw blood at people. They make OUTRAGOUS slander towards places such as KFC or any fast food join, brain washing people. Their main target are little kids. YES, little kids.

PETA also thinks all animals need to be free. WHich means no pets, no meat, no nothing. They think cows can be set in the wild. They think turkeys are smart as cats. Then even released a stupid thing about calling all fish "Sea Kittens". They even made a rip off of Mario and Cooking Mama. T he Mario game was a slanderoius KFC attack called "Super Chick Sisters".

PETA makes moutains out of a molehill.

Support a better animal group. PETA can burn in the deapth of hell.


Just leave, Jesus Christ, half the time, you and your sister don't know what you guys talk about anyway.

Thanks Agent Crab for filling me in on all the gaps. BTW it's hard for me to try to keep up on all this when I'm trying to get my High School Deploma, find the right college, and instant message my long lost love Desiree. It's like one moment she is happy as a lark and the next she is mad at me for reasons I can't figure out.

WHY are females so hard to get throught to? What has a guy ever done to make a girl so blooody mad at him? I am all torn up mentally. I love Desiree but she does not seem to understand that! What am I supposed to do? Just because she wants a to live a "Chris Brown (No Air)" type of thing does not mean it'll happen. Girls need a reality check!

BTW I am not a supporter of PETA I just was thrown for a spin, I heard NPR praising them and was confused when you said they were animal killers. Thanks for the clear up man. You're a nice guy Agent Crab.

Although I think Agent Crab is a bit over the mark on PETA, they are certainly a group that uses liberal guilt to boost support. They rarely use science in their approach to fostering education and understanding of animal issues, and more often than not do less to actually help animals by using ridiculous, irrational methods to get their message across.

I'm a naturalist, and therefore a supporter of wildlife and animal rights, but I'd never become a member of PETA.

You were the one who said they were helpful in your one post.

Like I said... There are far better animal supporters out there.

Still, they do it thr wrong way. Considering like the comic that was linked and showing kids bloody pictures of animals.

Like that is truly helpful.

Yes, I agree with that. I said they used ridiculous, irrational methods. They more often than not oppose an issue by not actually confronting the reality of it.

The true issue of the seal hunt is not that the animals are killed, but rather that the quota is too high and therefore creates unsustainable market. The science is clear, but PETA prefers to pull the heartstrings of the less intellectually inclined.

I like your approach Peru1936. From what I'm googling they are very much like Michael Moore and Mel Gibson. They use emotionalism, pornographic images and NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming) to gain supporters instead of using science and rational thinking to convey their views and concerns. I find that they are not at all what I thought they were.

However I will buy their Grace Park and Rachael Leigh Cook posters as they a fine specimen of surefire wonder.

However Agent Crab is right and I bet there are better wildlife preservation organizations out there. Now if I just find a nice girl who does not bomb me the way Desiree does I'd be happy now. Snesh I gotta take a nap my head is killing me.

Not too far removed from organized religion.

He most certainly is right about that.

This is better than listening to PETA.

PETA uses Goodwin's law to get their point across as well. Ignore PETA. Eat what you want. Don't listen to what they say about the meat and milk industry, considering they do make more lies about anything.

I don't support animal rights. PETA does go far with their views. No pets, no meat, no nothing. They just want animals roaming every place. Not everyone can eat a vegan dish. Considering I can't eat like a vegan or a vegetarian.
