.
I'll never forget the PETA activists who killed adoptable dogs and tossed them in garbage bags into a dumpster. I believe PETA's adoption rate is something like 14%. (Sure, their website bosts a different statistic. But they are full of many lies.) They euthanize the rest of the animals because they can't bother to find homes for them. Yes, shelters must euthanize also, but they have much, much higher adoption rates. PETA spends more donated money for legal defense of their criminal activists than they do to actually help animals.
PETA does not want anyone to have pets, even service animals, they are against zoos, they are against any form of animal use, and they are against medical research that has saved millions of lives. They are a terrorist organization whose members, in general, think nothing of destroying buildings and killing people.

ok, initially, once the cat is executed giving beginning and has wiped clean her kittens, please take a cardboard container, position the cat and kittens interior and flow the container on your bedroom.when you've moved the cat and her kittens on your bedroom , you may keep a blanket in a nook of the room and enable the cat sit there consisting of her kittens. this way they kittens will be advantageous and they are going to be remote out of your mom's sight so the lesser your mom receives indignant. yet do not flow her till eventually she's thoroughly executed giving beginning. then attempt to calm your mom down and tell her you'll locate those kittens a house yet do make effective you do not provide away the kittens till eventually they are atleast 8 weeks previous, as they want their mom till eventually then. once the kittens are 8 weeks of age, attempt speaking on your friends , kinfolk or others which will be attracted to protecting the kittens, in the adventure that they could keep the kittens. if no one is fascinated, you may hand them over to an animal look after yet do make effective the animal look after is a No-Kill look after. also once the kittens are totally weaned and the mummy cat is executed with raising her kittens, please get the her spayed as there are this variety of tremendous number of stray kittens and cats or perhaps those that finally end up being placed down in shelters because of no longer having homes :( so getting your cat spayed can be a strong concept, this can be whats maximum acceptable for her .it would want to ward off her from many well being issues and also you would possibly want to help administration the cat inhabitants. in the adventure that your mom does take a at the same time as to damage the kittens, that's mandatory to call the animal rescue org or the humane society. for gaining knowledge of one on your area , please use the internet to locate an animal rescue placed on your area. strong success:) wish each and every thing works out merely advantageous,

Yep, I've been following coverage of the trial. The fact that 80% of the animals that peta takes in is euthanized instead of adopted is scary...plus the fact that they give large amounts of cash to domestic terrorist organizations. I just hope more people become aware of what peta is really about.
EDIT:
kaitmike, you are looking at the documents wrong I think.
In 2004 peta took in 10298 pets (surrendered 2655 + others 7641) 7643 pets were reclaimed 8 died without human assistance, and 1 was transferred to a different facility. This leaves 2646 animals for peta to account for. Of the 2646, three hundred sixty one were adopted out, 2278 animals were euthanized by peta, and there were 7 pets in the shelter on Dec 31.
When you do the math, you see that in 2004 peta euthanized 84.4% of pets. Only 15.6% were adopted out.
2003: 2223 animals to account for
1911 euthanized
312 adopted
16.2% adopted 83.8% euthed
2002: 2678 to account for
2298 euthanized
382 adopted
16.2% adopted 83.8% euthed

You can hardly hold PETA acountable for the actions of 2 sick individuals ! I dont agree with all their tactics....but overall PETA tries to stop animal cruelty. Its unfortunate that these 2 people chose to work with PETA as a means to gain access to innocent animals. Also.....I went to the website and from the documents I saw...it looks like only about 20% of the animals are euthanized....NOT 80% as some-one said. It may be sad...but the fact remains that many animals are sick/injured to such an extent that they cannot be saved. Would you rather they keep animals with contagious illness alive...risking all the others ? You cant really say why the mentioned cats were put down...just because they looked healthy doesnt mean they werent carrying something that was detrimental to their health/ or the health of others.
ADDED.... I agree that I am looking at the numbers differently. You see...I give credit to PETA for taking in over 10,000 animals and only having to euthanize 2,000. How fortunate that the other 8,000 animals were placed back with their families through PETAS efforts to locate them....

PETA is certainly goofy as heck, but that does not sound like something they would do. The facts have to be wrong there somewhere.

Where did you get your facts? They seem suspicious. Remember, any one can put up a fake website.

The following is a response from PETA. (I'm also a member.)
Thank you for contacting PETA about this Web site and its promotions.
We believe that a lot of good will come from this shabby attempt to undermine PETA’s work helping animals. The campaign is run by the misnamed Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF), a front group for Philip Morris, Outback Steakhouse, Tyson Foods, and other big-business animal exploiters. These companies are worried about the strides PETA has made exposing cruelty to animals, educating caring consumers, and compelling companies to take animal welfare seriously, so they contribute vast amounts of money to the CCF and its ads attacking PETA. To learn more about the CCF, check out one of the following Web sites:
ConsumerDeception.com
http://www.citizensforethics.org/activities/campaign.php?view=3
http://www.prospect.org/web/page.ww?section=root&name=ViewWeb&articleId=8984
Despite the ad’s intent, we’re glad that it provides an opportunity to discuss the companion-animal overpopulation crisis, which results in tremendous suffering for millions of animals. The scope of the crisis is truly staggering: Every year in this country, 3 to 4 million dogs and cats—many of whom are healthy and young—must be euthanized in animal shelters because there simply aren’t enough good homes for them. Many more animals suffer far worse fates—they are left to languish in terrible “no-kill” shelters, abandoned and struggling for survival on the streets, and suffer slow and painful deaths.
PETA’s caseworkers tirelessly rescue homeless animals from danger, cruelty, and neglect (see http://www.HelpingAnimals.com/about_cap.asp). They crawl through sewers, poke through junk yards, and climb trees in order to reach animals in trouble. During floods and storms, PETA workers save lives at all hours.
Some of the animals we take in are lost companions with loving families who miss them; we are thrilled when a happy reunion takes place and animals get to return to their original homes. When good foster and adoptive homes are available, we place other rescued animals, and some are occasionally transferred to a trusted local animal shelter. We devote most of our rescue resources to alleviating the suffering of animals who are terribly sick or injured, poorly socialized, or dying. Most of the time, PETA is the only organization willing to come to the aid of these suffering and unwanted animals. Our area shelters—like most in the nation—are bursting at the seams with unwanted animals, some of whom are healthy and adoptable but must be euthanized simply to make room for the steady stream of animals flowing in daily. With so many healthy puppies and kittens already filling up the available space in shelters, the chances of adoption for older animals with health or behavioral problems are slim to none; most people are looking for cute and cuddly kittens or puppies. To learn more about why shelters must do this heartbreaking work, please visit http://peta.org/feat-overpopulation_crisis.asp.
In one recent case, our caseworkers were able to gain custody of a dog—who was stuck on a 15-pound chain—who had been starved and looked like a living skeleton. A veterinarian recommended euthanasia because of the severity of the dog’s condition; she was in a lot of pain and otherwise faced an agonizing, lingering death. The most humane option for her was a peaceful and dignified release from her suffering. We pursued criminal charges against those responsible for her condition, leading to their conviction on cruelty-to-animals charges. To learn more, check out http://www.helpinganimals.com/f-asiasstory.asp. PETA deals with these kinds of cases on a daily basis.
On another occasion, when a power-line transformer explosion burned a flock of starlings, PETA was the only group to come to the birds’ aid. If our trained workers had not been ready to end these starlings’ misery, the injured birds would have suffered in agony for days before succumbing to a painful death. We also provide free euthanasia services for local residents who have very sick, critically injured, or geriatric companions but can’t afford to take them to a veterinarian. One low-income family turned to us for help for their cat, who had crawled home barely alive after being severely mauled by dogs. We were able to help by giving the cat a peaceful end to her intense pain.
Our society has caused the companion-animal overpopulation crisis by failing to spay or neuter animals—which allows the number of animals to multiply rapidly—and by patronizing breeders and pet stores instead of adopting animals from shelters. PETA’s mobile SNIP (Spay and Neuter Immediately, Please) clinic brings low-cost and free surgeries to low-income neighborhoods. This service has saved hundreds of thousands of animals by preventing the birth of more unwanted animals. Since the purchase of every animal from a breeder or a pet store means that another homeless animal must die, adopting an animal from a shelter or a rescue group is the only responsible way to bring a companion animal into your life.
PETA can’t end the overpopulation crisis alone—we need your help. Read more about what PETA is doing about this tragic situation and what you can do to help at http://www.peta.org/feat-overpopulation_crisis.asp.
Sincerely,
The PETA Staff
