Avon, Mary Kay, and Estée Lauder Are Paying for Tests on Animals

Avon, Mary Kay, and Estée Lauder Are Paying for Tests on Animals
My household is going to be free of ALL animal tested products. As it turns out, what a process. How ignorant I am that most products in my home have been tested on primates, dogs, cats, rabbits, etc..As animal advocates, we exert the largest portion of our time on missions that burden our heart. The animal testing is an "out of site,out of mind" injustice. The facts are that the animals are tortured, tied down, their feet never touch the grass, they never leave the cage. A life so gruesome. Being an OBJECT, just a number tattood on their ear or a tag on their cage. Procter and Gamble, Johnson and Johnson are on the list as some of the largest companies that test on animals. There are alternatives that other companies are using. This is also a dirty secret kept by major Universities. How will I tell my child, the Senior Class President, that she will NOT be attending the school of her dreams, FSU? Well, I hope she chooses not to go.They refer to them as vertebrates. Chilling. We, in numbers, by taking actions....even just one a month can help in the elimination of such cruelty. One email, boycotting products...a letter. This is the 14th year for the annual Procter and Gamble boycott by the animal community. These are just a few of the Procter and Gamble products/brands you may have in your home. Cover Girl, Pampers, Max Factor, Panteen, Clearasil, Tampax, Clairol, Gillette. Thousands of animals are killed,burned and mamed by testing each year. The address for P and G is Procter and Gamble Corporate Office, 1 Proctor and Gamble Plaza, Cincinnati, Ohio. Share your feelings by mail and share this cause if it speaks to your heart.
