Why not help those animals and try to make their lives better, instead of turning them away? Do you wear leather, use glue etc?
Woah, woah, woah--- I think you missed my point. My point is that I do not want to support these industries in any way, and it is my choice not to work for them. I currently do not support the industries that breed animals for food so why would I do so with my work? This is similar to "rescuing" puppies from pet stores--- the greater good is if you don't support the industry of puppy mills! I feel horribly for the animals that live and die in these wretched conditions and am doing all I can through animal rights work to make the public aware of what is going on behind the scenes.

Rescued animals??? Of course I would help these animals--- that situation would not involve supporting the industry and perpetuating their cruelty!

Many times vets who work for industries choose that line of work because it is especially lucrative and without question they pump racing horses full of painkillers (even though they are running with horrible injuries) and pump dairy cows full of antibiotics.

Yes, I'm vegan. No, I do not go to circuses (shudder), aquariums or zoos. No, I do not wear leather and I don't use glue containing animal products.
