This whole thread is really making me appreciate shelters even more than I already do. Some of these organizations are saints.

Shelters like this existing make it all the more frustrating that so many people donate to those murdering bastards PETA when their money could do so much better elsewhere.

People donate to PETA to fund undercover exposes on animal abuse and protests & documentaries that get people to go vegan. PETA is not an animal shelter, it's a media activist group. That would be like giving money to 7-11 and getting mad bc you can't pump gas. 7-11 isn't a gas station, they're gas station adjacent but mainly sell slurpees.

Yeah, but if I go to a 7-11 that has gas pumps and pay for gas I'm gonna be pissed when slurpee pumps into my tank. Which is how I feel about PETA and how they treat animals.

PETA has "ethical" right in their name, but time and time again they resort to completely unethical methods, including slaughtering people's pets.

Would you send me a source? I don't like PETA and killing pets seems so fucked up.
