Vegan Bites: Puppy Mills, ALF, Almonds, And Cats
Print This Post
News, views, and stews from the vegan blogosphere and the mainstream news…
Puppy mills in Ohio receive slap on the wrist for violations, despite horrific abuse. “At a facility in Ohio with 88 adult dogs, AC cited the breeder for 23 violations (including seven repeats) during three inspections from August 2005 to January 2008. In July 2007, AC sent an official warning to correct the identified care and cleanliness violations or face a ‘more severe’ penalty. In January 2008, AC found the same violations. But instead of imposing a more severe penalty, it sent another official warning.” link

Puppy mills and the lesser-known kitty mills, as well as the so-called “backyard breeders” are another one of those abominations that just won’t go away. With cats, it can be especially bad with the hybrids, with many of them kept in small cages stacked on top of each other. Sadly, animal control, not unlike the EPA and the USDA, just don’t have enough resources to handle the volume of problems out there.

It would be great if instead of merely quoting Pamela Anderson, the mainstream media performed some investigation to see if her impressions can be validated scientifically. But maybe that would annoy their meat advertisers.
