It's a slow Sunday, what can I say:

If you're a member of PETA, can you call the exterminator for a cockroach infestation? Are you allowed to treat your dog for ticks and fleas?

Well, to the latter...you shouldn't even HAVE pets. That's exploiting them. Or something...

[gargoylekitty]

They don't let the word 'pet' to be used but instead call them, iirc, 'animal companions'.

[lost_cosmos]

if you are so educated about PETA you are truly an SPO at its worst supporting them in this thread you realize.

there are reasons to get rid of parasites and NOT to have domesticated animals run free like PETA deems the right way. its one thing to live an organic life and one thing to live a HYGENIC life entirely.

yes some stories about PETA are false and urban legends at this point. however supporting them and their activism which is deadly on a widescale basis is just wrong

Lmao, where the hell did I say I supported them? Please learn to read, it's very helpful.

[gargoylekitty]

No, they're not. They tend to use non-kill repellents that are supposed to deter roachs in the house and ticks/fleas on pets. My mother's friend works for them(their HQ is about 30 minutes from my house).

Ah you see having pets is evil and cruel and exploits them. Don't be silly you can't kill cockroachs did you not see the uproar when Obama killed a fly!!!

[juicy_peach]

I'm a vegetarian and I hate PETA and I found their outrage SO funny! I don't like to kill things, but I don't hesitate at swatting at mosquitos and flies. And if cockroaches were in my house??? Ew!

Pick each tick off and set them FREEEE INTO THE WOOOOODS

God I fucking hate PETA.

I remember being at a dog show where they were putting antifreeze into dog's waters and setting some loose. Activism at it's worst.

They let dogs free around me too. And the show was near a very busy highway so most of them, if not fighting with each other in the intact-loose-dog confusion, got hit by cars.

Wtf.
