Not! http://www.myvegandiaryblog.com/lucky-rats-get-their-injuries-fixed-not/ http://www.myvegandiaryblog.com/lucky-rats-get-their-injuries-fixed-not/#comments Fri, 04 Mar 2011 22:41:08 +0000 mbelcher http://www.myvegandiaryblog.com/?p=79

As a writer I really enjoyed the way this was done.  Essentially one is lead to believe (oh was it just me) that these delighful little rats were getting their poor little injuries fixed. That is just a great human thing, being able to choose like that.

Then when I read more my stupid brain started to say hello I then realised that is not what this was about at all!  Stupid me.

or am I?  Here is the article http://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/la-heb-rodent-20110304,0,5109621.story

Yes I am for thinking that this article could be anything other than some news on how we use animals for stuff like this.  Yes I know this is amazing work, yes if I needed the medical help that had come from this work I might appreciate it.  But I don’t want to be part of a society that uses other living things against their will do do stuff like this.

Anyone else feel the same?

Did you hear about this?

Apparently 100 Sled Dogs were killed because they were not needed anymore.  I mean seriously, is that anyway to treat any living thing?  Let alone dogs?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/31/100-sled-dogs-slaughtered_n_816462.html

I do find it odd that people just feel animals are there for us to use as we want.  There is a respect between us and animals that should be obeyed.  It has nothing to do religion or faith, it is just one living being seeing another.

So these dogs were working sled dogs that were no longer needed because the company didn’t have enough tourists coming.  Well is it just possible they could have done something else with the dogs?  Just possible?

They truth is they couldn’t be arsed.  It was easier for them to just have the dogs killed instead of doing something compassionate with the dogs.

Another celebrity is going vegan!  Only for a week but hey it is something right?

Apparently Oprah Winfrey and her staff are going to go vegan for a week.  You can read the whole story here.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/01/oprah-goes-vegan-with-nea_n_816845.html

I am sure most of them will do it but how many will keep going afterwards?

I really hope they enjoy not eating any animals products.

Hi,

We went on a Cruise and stayed in the Crowne Plaza in Venice.  Have you been to Venice?  Anyway, when I went down to breakfast I realised there wasn’t much for a Vegan Diet!  Not surprising but I didn’t really think about it.  Check out the video.

I have been a vegetarian for a few years now.  I do a lot of meetings and at least once a week have to eat some food from a petrol station…..well as a Vegetarian that isn’t great but at least they might have some cheese sandwich or something like that.

Now I am a Vegan eating a Vegan diet things have changed!  Have a look at this video.

I didn’t know this would be so hard!  After changing to being a Vegetarian and didn’t know that being a Vegan would be so difficult.  It seems that nowhere has food for a vegan!
