Tuesday: animals eating other animals and plants ARE a natural way of life tho...differnce is,animlas in the wild kill to eat,they don't poach each other and they don't abuse each other and joke about it before hand....see if you can find the link in your browser history...ya got me curious now,lol :)

Tuesday: Is there laws against frying ants with a magnifying glass?

I just wondered if insects have any protection legally,and if not,why?

I'm not trying to be funny,I just wonder how the "line" is determined as to protection legally.

I wonder if there are similar groups such as these concerned with insects?

wetware: THANK YOU,for that post!!

Tuesday: What a great organisation,Lurch is saving lives,I'll bet he's spoiled rotten

Too bad they dont cut the horns off to give him some ease on his head and neck.. Poor animal having to carry them around all the time just so they can make a profit on people coming to ogle him. 

Tuesday: Is that place the animal version of "The Land Of Misfit Toys"?

Tuesday: Thanks for the very indepth link

(Small Dog Syndrome - Dog believes he is the pack leader to humans) aint that the truth

A 5 month old male Bichon Havanese,does anyone have any experience with this breed?
he would have to get along with his 2 new sisters who are older cats,I hear the Bichon Havanese usually is pretty good with cats

Tuesday: 100% agree on that one!

Tuesday: I have to agree that the thought of that kind of grosses me out...dunno WHY the thought of a human adult drinking HUMAN milk bothers me and not humans drinking cow's milk...but,yeah,it does...I agree with the whole bodily fliuds thing....I would never eat Ben and Jerry's again,lol

Tuesday: not sure,but genetically we are closer to pigs,I suppose pigs milk is our most logical substitute

Tuesday: Who was the guy who decided to give cow milk a try?

I'll bet he pondered presenting his discovery for a few days

PEOPLE for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has urged US ice cream makers Ben & Jerry's Homemade to replace cow's milk in ice cream products with breast milk.

"PETA's request comes in the wake of news reports that a Swiss restaurant owner will begin purchasing breast milk from nursing mothers and substituting breast milk for 75 per cent of the cow's milk in the food he serves," the animal rights group said

PETA officials say a move to breast milk would lessen the suffering of dairy cows and their calves on factory farms and benefit human health.

"The fact that human adults consume huge quantities of dairy products made from milk that was meant for a baby cow just doesn't make sense," PETA spokeswoman Tracy Reiman said.

"Everyone knows that the breast is best, so, Ben & Jerry's could do consumers and cows a big favour by making the switch to breast milk."

Ben & Jerry's said: "We applaud PETA's novel approach to bringing attention to an issue, but we believe a mother's milk is best used for her child."

Tuesday: How's Shiloh's breath?

Tuesday: not sure about the baby seals.. my heart is out to them.. I saw a video a few years back that was gruesome.. I never knew that went on till then.. it was horrifying to see how cruel mankind can be.

wetware: pretty bad when that can upset cats! Horried stuff.I know it was pushing it BUT I really thought it needed to be posted...the more people that know about what is going on,the more can step in to help the ones that don't have a voice.

I shouldn't have viewed that video while my cats were trying to have breakfast.  They all freaked out once the screaming started.  Now everybody's on edge, when I was hoping to spend a calm morning with them before our annual vet visit.

I like pigs, even more than I like some people.

Tuesday: Canadians hit home runs batting baby seals,we're no better,but you sure wouldn't want to flash it around at election time,that's where I'm confused

rod03801:  I just heard about it.  I will definitely read it. 

Artful Dodger: I ordered that book today. I heard it was great.

Tuesday: I love Americans to death,so much of my youth was spent there,you're my brothers and sisters,but Annie Oakley is so 1800's

Tuesday: Who do you have to piss off,to be taken off the endangered list?

The only reason this was brought to mind,was because it was mentioned regarding Alaska Gov Palin,I heard she wants them taken off the list

Tuesday: I'll go with ya.. I had to stop when the man had the piglets.. OMG.. those poor babies..

anastasia: I'm probably the most cynical person I know,but I honestly don't "get" the connection to anything odd

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle

The author of this book loves dogs.  It looks like a good book.  It's not about dogs but I think the dog in the story is key to the story.  It's getting a lot of hype.  ;)

Jim Dandy: oh,man,if I knew the comment wouldn't be taken off here,what I could say to that cat = woman thing...BUT if you mind slides into the gutter like mine did...ok! there is the edit that Artful Dodger will hit me with,lmao!! I am outta here before he yells at me!
