People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is an organization that publicly claims to represent the best interest of animals -- indeed their "ethical treatment." Yet approximately 2,000 animals pass through PETA's front door every year and very few make it out alive. The vast majority -- 96 percent in 2011 -- exit the facility out the back door after they have been killed, when Pet Cremation Services of Tidewater stops by on their regular visits to pick up their remains. Between these visits, the bodies are stored in the giant walk-in freezer PETA installed for this very purpose. It is a freezer that cost $9,370 and, like the company which incinerates the bodies of PETA's victims, was paid for with the donations of animal lovers who could never have imagined that the money they donated to help animals would be used to end their lives instead. In fact, in the last 11 years, PETA has killed 29,426 dogs, cats, rabbits, and other domestic animals.

Never liked them...any group that will attack a human while going on about decent treatment to animals forget that we too are animals.
These guys woke me up to PETA.
Warning a odd bit of swearing here.
If you want to give money to a decent animal charity find one that do not destroy the likkle guys.
Pure money making scam.
Oh S&F chickadee

Instead of giving money to big charities give it to shelters around you're community. And adopt. Adoption centers even get kittens and puppies in and its much cheaper. You get a friend for life, you know for sure you're money is going to an animal, and you skip the breeding centers.edit on 8-4-2013 by NorthBlizzard because: (no reason given)

from what I read on several pages now (after I clicked on your link) is that they presume it to be "humane" to collect what they consider "feral" cats and kill them. Those cats are not "suffering" or sick, they are killed simply because they are "feral" cats.
