There are other organizations whose primary focus is companion animals and PETA leaves it to them for the most part. I just checked the current action alerts (what PET want supporters to focus on)and the top ones (making the first page) are a zoo animal issue, exotic skins, fur and reptiles. If they're trying to take small steps to get support they sure are doing a good job of hiding it from their potential supporters. |
I do agree with your statement that "In reality while PETA does work at educating on companion animal issues, they aren't really a major focus of PETA's on any level . . ." I think though, most people do believe that PETA was concerned about pets, hence the name PETA. I think most people think it's an organization that promotes pet ownership. Most dog and cat lovers use to think PETA would be the place to give their money, and think of it as a pet friendly organization. By your own words, PETA is more concerned with other issues, and in that case, why would they be entitled to receive money from the Leona Helmsley estate?

Leona Helmsley specified that her entire estate is to be used for the care and welfare of dogs.

So why would they be entitled to any of this money?
