That's exactly how I feel about the 4-H Club!~ It totally tries to desensitize children's feelings for animals!

I don't think i could ever be a successful farmer because I would have to kill the animals. One look in their eyes and that would be it for me. These animals are raised to trust us for food and care and then one day we kill them plus the treatment they get from some while being raised for the slaughter is deploreable. At least when you meet a lion, buffalo, sow with babies, you know what to expect and if you are smart, you turn tail and run for shelter. That is why I am not too keen on 4H. They hand raise the animal, groom it and almost turn it into a pet and then after the fair, it is sold to someone for slaughter. A betrayal is ever I saw one. _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
