       There’s not bigger cognitive dissonance than sacrificing a lot of time and money and making a big emotional investment in taking care of one pet while being complicit in the suffering and slaughter of hundreds of animals.“Poor Milo has an ear infection. After driving him to the vet and buying those expensive tablets for him, I’ll wolf down this breast from a chicken which got its beak painfully amputated soon after it was born and whose legs got crushed by its own unnatural weight.”“Little Luna would be so sad if let alone during our holidays… I’d better splurge on new toys for her and hire someone who can come along and check on her while we’re away. But first, let’s focus on this creamy bacon recipe, courtesy of a pig who only knew a dark cage and a cow forcibly impregnated and removed from its calf once a year, both of whom got their tails cut off without anesthesia…”#AnimalWelfare
