Last night I am surfing through the channels on the TV I come across animals on the Public access station. So of course I stop to look well..... that was a HUGE mistake. It must have been some animal rights show b/c they are showing all of these animals being abused by companies, factories & farms. I was literally sick to my stomach. I am so upset for these poor animals and I start to cry every time I think about it. They showed cows, calves, pigs, chickens, cats & dogs to name but a few. How can these co's and people get away with what they do. I know that this goes on in the world I am no dummy but to see it in my face was def an eye opener.

Re: So upset
It's one thing to 'know' it, another thing to see it. Has anyone yet posted a list of 'cruelty free' companies on this site?
There's a reason I don't eat meat and I would never wear fur. I don't always shop cruelty-free though. I used to, and I really should start again. It just seems like EVERYTHING is made by P&G

Re: So upset
I feel the same way. I know it goes on but when I see it ...it drives me insane!! These people should have the same sort of torture inflicted on them! I keep saying to myself 'How could someone do that?' It's disgusting!

Re: So upset
Buy cruelty free! It's not that hard and you'll feel better about it (and the products are usually higher quality anyway). And, go veg. It's not that hard.
Of anyone wants a list of cruelty free companies e-mail me, and if you want veg. recipes I can send some to you.
Here's just a few companies that don't test on animals: Aveda, Kiss my Face, Alba Botanica, Seventh Generation, Burt's Bees, Avon, Road's End Organics, Citrishine, Mary Kay, Tom's of Maine, Yves Rocher, Earth Friendly Products, Reviva, Philosophy, Dr. Bronners soaps, EO, Avalon Organics, Gillette (moratorium, no full commitment to permanently end testing), MAC, most European cosmetics companies (it's illegal in Europe to test on animals for any purpose cosmetic), Cetaphil, ZuZu cosmetics, Beauty without Cruelty, BODY SHOP, Bath and Body Works
These a just a few!

I don't know if it is true any anymore- but Body Shop basically didn't test on animals but hired suppliers that DID.. so really it was BS
