Don't get me wrong, I love critters...but each has a purpose. We eat beef yet in other countries the bovine is sacred.
We have dogs as pets,yet they're prized as food in other countries.
No cuelty is definded as mistreatment.Like veal. There's mistreatment for ya. Kept in a SMALL confined cage from birth.Fed nothing but milk.Not allowed to hardly move, let alone stand. Pumped full of chemicals,then slaughtered at a very young age. All for producing a very soft meat with hardly any muscle mass.
The lab animals are fed & kept very well actually.
