Chris from Beijing wasn't able to comment (Animal Person is blocked in China) but he did write me to say he looks forward to Jonathan Safran Foer's sequel to Eating Animals. Not Eating Animals.

Every time I get depressed about animal issues (every other day it seems like), I see an article like this. It's an article about the pork industry having to address the increasingly positive media image of pigs as intelligent creatures that could be someone's pet. And, of course, this view of farm animals is the norm.

In fact, a whole lot of semi-vegans can do much more for animals than the tiny number of people who are willing to give up all animal products and scrupulously read labels.

Almost every single outdoor pet cat, feral cat, or stray kills other animals , no matter how well fed the cat is through other sources.
