I think my issue with Peta is that they aren't for animal rescue, they are for animal rights.

And animal rights the way I understand it is that they believe no animals should be kept as companions and they'd be better off dead than "domesticated".

I feel that animals enrich our lives so very much and truly believe that a good animal owner can equally enrich that pets life.

Also, from the movie "your mommy kills animals" there's a lot of info on Peta. Two people that worked there actually went to an adoption facility, claimed to be adopting out the animals and killed them, put them in garbage bags in a dumpster and said they "saved" them.

It's too outrageous and cruel for me, personally and I used to really think Peta was great-- before I knew what it was all about.
