how would people feel if they were offering dog and cat meat there?

most people don’t like the idea of their pet being served up as food. or seeing it in the supermaket.

fact is rabbits are the #3 domestic pet in the country, they are the #3 most abandoned to shelters, behind cats and dogs. their intelligence levels are in the range of cats and dogs and they have unique personalities (animalities if you don’t like that). it just amazes me that loving dog and cat owners can’t extend their own empathy towards rabbit owners that have to deal with their animal being in categories theirs aren’t - food, pests, hunting targets. if their animals were in those categories they’d be crying a blue streak and demanding change.

what really sucks is usda classifies rabbits as chickens so as to get around the humane slaughter act requirements.
