Do you use products that test in animals? Or do you eat meat?
A lot of people question my love for animals because I'm not vegetarian. And in the bible doesn't it say that animals are for man to eat?
Also I use Pantene shampoos and conditioners that are on the list of products/ companies that use animal testing. I love Pantene /: it makes me sad to think of what animals go through for the simple things in life we don't think about. This doesn't change my love for animals because I won't change. I donate, volunteer, petition,rescue, everything and go the extra mile for any creature big, small, sick or healthy. The cruelty towards animals weren't in my hands, and I do as much as one person on this earth could possibly of not more. Is this you? less

I am a vegetarian (not vegan), but try to buy cage-free eggs & purchase cosmetics not tested on animals. I picked "other" because with some things, you have to buy things that are tested on animals because there are no other options (e.g.: medication), but I do try to avoid buying products like makeup or shampoo that are tested on animals if there are non-animal-tested options available. less

People may question you when you say you love animals but still eat meat because it is rather contradictory. How can you love animals, yet contribute to their abuse and slaughter? Billions of animals are kept is rather horrible conditions and killed in rather horrible ways because people want to eat them, this is supply and demand. So if you say you love animals but are a direct reason for them being kept and killed like they are, it doesn't make sense. What would be more appropriate is to say you love pets.

As for the Bible... well, that is a whole different story. I'm sure we could go back and forth, and around in circles. Personally, I don't really care what the Bible says about eating animals because I don't live my life according to the Bible.

If you are sad that the cosmetics you are using are tested on animals, I encourage you to switch to something else. There are many wonderful products out there that are not tested on animals and contain natural ingredients that are good for your body. I personally do not use any cosmetics or household products that are tested on animals, as I do not believe that animals testing is right, and I don't want to support it.

In a way, the cruelty IS in your hands. Again, this relates to supply and demand. Many companies have stopped testing on animals because of boycotts, and many animals are not raised and killed because people create less demand by not wanting to eat them.

I encourage you to search inside yourself. You obviously are having uncomfortable feelings about animal testing, so that is a clue that you may want to transition to cruelty-free products. To truly do "as much as you can", you need to stop eating animals. Then you could say this sentence proudly. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

Note: I tried my hardest to make this post's wording respectful and to not be confrontational. less

I am an animal lover and do whatever I can to help, including watching out for animal testing on products when possible. However, I have medical issues and my doctors do not wanting me trying a vegetarian diet under any circumstances. So, I will continue to eat meat. less

While i do agree with you on a lot of this, cutting out meat from one's diet isnt always something one can do because of fiancees, food allergies, religion, etc.
My partner is vegan, and i tend to eat vegan or vegetarian very often, but because of my current finical situation and living at home, i am unable to become vegan until i can finically support myself.
I do wish people we're more aware about commercialized farming habits, even when it comes to "cage free" eggs, and encourage everyone to try and buy locally since those animals are often well loved, have much beter living conditions as well as better diet meaning a better quality product.

However, there are brands i will not buy from because of their cruelty toward animals (which started with a ban of Horizon/Silk Milk products in my house/partners house) and make sure any and all cosmetics and house hold items bought are not tested on animals. The only time i get a product that is tested on an animal is when its something gifted to me, and i'm far to poor to turn down free bodywash or conditioner.

I still do what i can in my community for my animal friends like go to and help at rescues and help turtles cross the street, but it's a really good thing to research the products you ingest and use because you are probably contributing to the abuse of animals without even realizing. less
