At first glance, a classified ad looking for puppies and kittens might not seem all that unusual.
Until you see the poster is willing to pay by the pound.
The stomach-turning ad, since removed, has been blocked by Castanet and the poster banned following this bizarre listing:
"Looking to provide a loving humane organic home for unwanted cats and dogs. Will pay top prices per pound. Best quality of care and food provided. Free range of farm and home. Lots of love and attention. We are looking to use them as an ethical source of meat for our family. Slaughter is humane and quick after a very good life. All care and slaughter will be performed in accordance. to Canadian law (although we pride ourselves in exceeding expectations)."
And, even though the ad is gone, it is stirring up emotions on social media.
"I did ... call the cruelty hotline, and unfortunately what they are doing is legal as long as they are euthanized humanely," Joy Wilford said on the Vernon and Surrounding Areas Pet Giveaway and Lost and Found Pets Facebook page.
Others were more blunt in their assessment, using words like sick, disgusting, shocking and more.
In fact, it is not against the law to kill and eat your pets in Canada. It is only illegal to cause unnecessary suffering or slaughter them in a way that is deemed inhumane or results in distress.
Indeed, the case of Molly the pot-bellied pig caused an uproar in 2018 when she was seized by the Cowichan SPCA as part of a cruelty investigation, nursed back to health, and then adopted out. Less than one month later, she was dinner, with the adopting couple even posting photos of the meal on Snapchat.
I bet it was a radical Vegan PETA stunt.

BBQ baby back ribs?
Another unanticipated consequence of unfettered immigration. Yum, yum and no more problems with stray dogs and cats.
Probably some Chinese garbage. Give me 5 minutes with them and a favorite garden implement of mine.
Whoever penned it was jolly well aware of how it would come across. It was meant to cause outrage.
I won't take that bet because I'm sure you'd win.
what’s the problem? In Koreatown, they just call it “buffet”..

"The Daily Caller noted that in President Obama's best-selling memoir, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, the president recalls being fed dog meat as a young boy in Indonesia with his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro.
"With Lolo, I learned how to eat small green chill peppers raw with dinner (plenty of rice), and, away from the dinner table, I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher), and roasted grasshopper (crunchy)," the president wrote. "Like many Indonesians, Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths.
He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.""

There are cultures that eat what we consider pets.(including many Native-American Tribes).
Many government Dog Pounds and animal shelters that . . . uh . . . put animals to sleep(kill/waste) could turn a profit by selling such unwanted animals to those cultures that would put them to use.
After all, all that lives eventually becomes food for something else that lives, that’s just biology.
That song was the first thing I thought of when I saw this story.
Have you ever been to Korea?
Big outrage over this. No outrage over killing human babies after birth.
Yes. Multiple times. Plus my cousin is stationed at a certain base near the DMZ. Why do you ask?
