I recently got an email from the Animal Legal Defense Fund. They are pioneering legislation in California to make public animal abuse registries. Please take time to read it, and if you are in California, get in touch with your representative and encourage them to support this if you believe it’s a good thing.

California recently passed a law protecting animal researchers from animal activists. Ralph Freeman has killed cats and kittens in his laboratory at UC Berkeley with no benefit for humans for over twenty years. These animals are denied movement and cut open for his insane, unscientific studies.

It is no more acceptable to confine 60 hens for their entire lives in a cage that you report is “about the size of a Ford F-150 pickup truck’s flatbed” than it would be to treat 60 cats similarly. People seem to lose sight of the fact that these are sentient animals, not food machines! Chickens deserve to live humanely.

Lloyd is an animal lover and enjoys blogging on the office theme. People who have pets or companion animals know why they do. Dogs, cats and other animals are great stress reducers and they give out unconditional love. People tend to be more social and outgoing and communicative when around animals.

This blog is written by writer, photographer, and animal advocate Ingrid Taylar. Years ago, I became a wildlife volunteer and advocate because of a cat who caught a bird. Now, he lay frightened and ruffled in my hands, his tail tattered, his feathers damp from the maw of a cat named Puck. I scrambled for a box.

Indeed, precisely because one expects indifference from animals but pity or mercy from human beings, people who are cruel by being insensitive to the suffering they cause often are called "animals" or "brutes," and their character or behavior, "brutal" or "inhuman." Both active and passive cruelty have fuzzy borders.

In responding to Suzie’s post defending wildlife rehabilitation I began to think again about the areas in which animal rights and animal welfare overlap with the field of conservation, and the ways in which they don’t. Not from an environmental perspective but from a “don’t you like animals?”

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. It’s all good advice from the point of view of doing better by animals.

It sounds like they are calling for an animal abuse equivalent of the sex offender registry. Wouldn't you want to know if a violent or repeat animal abuser were living next door to you and your family? Communities have good reason to be concerned about the whereabouts of animal abusers. Keep your animals and your families safe.
