Public Records: PETA Found Adoptive Homes for Less than 1 out of 300 Animals

Animal lovers worldwide now have access to more than a decade’s worth of proof that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) kills thousands of defenseless pets at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. Since 1998, PETA has opted to “put down” 21,339 adoptable dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens instead of finding homes for them.

PETA’s “Animal Record” report for 2008, filed with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, shows that the animal rights group killed 95 percent of the dogs and cats in its care last year. During all of 2008, PETA found adoptive homes for just seven pets.

Just seven animals -- out of the 2,216 it took in. PETA just broke its own record.

Why would an animal rights group secretly kill animals at its headquarters? PETA’s continued silence on the matter makes it hard to say for sure. But from a cost-saving standpoint, PETA’s hypocrisy isn’t difficult to understand: Killing adoptable cats and dogs – and storing the bodies in a walk-in freezer until they can be cremated – requires far less money and effort than caring for the pets until they are adopted.

PETA has a $32 million annual budget. But instead of investing in the lives of the thousands of flesh and blood creatures in its care, the group spends millions on media campaigns telling Americans that eating meat, drinking milk, fishing, hunting, wearing leather shoes, and benefiting from medical research performed on lab rats are all “unethical.”

The bottom line: PETA’s leaders care more about cutting into their advertising budget than finding homes for the nearly six pets they kill on average, every single day.

I found this to be pretty sad:

PETA's Lame Response

We'll say this much for PETA's leaders: they've got an answer for everything. If you write to PETA and ask them about our "PETA Kills Animals" website, they'll send back a form letter including some of the lame excuses below:

"Thank you for contacting PETA about the 'PETA Kills Animals' billboard and the accompanying promotions for it … PETA can't afford billboards in Times Square, so we're grateful for the opportunity that this one provides to discuss the animal overpopulation crisis."

PETA's lying. The organization has erected not one but two Times Square billboards (one in 1997 and another in 2003), both featuring silicone beauty Pamela Anderson. Click here and here to see PETA's own promotional materials about these advertisements. And PETA's annual budget is over $25 million. That's about seven times what the Center for Consumer Freedom spends.

This is my new favorite site.

Why on Earth would Peta kill animals?

Why would our government do anything evil?

This is just nonsense-- I knew PETA was a joke but I didn't know they were evil.

Kid who wants to go to prom with his girlfriend may face getting banned from his school.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090508/ap_on_re_us/us_school_dance_flap

This is absolutely ridiculous. The school forbids dancing, rock music, and kissing. What year are we in again? Good for the kid though, I hope he still goes to the dance and gets his hands a little dirty.

Come on, after that guy a few days ago yelling about jeans (as in Levis and Lees) are what's ruining the "traditional values" on America...this is just as pathetic. I mean, we all know the religious fanatics are oppressive and backwards (and always have been) but this is just lame.

Peta is filled with a bunch of nut-jobs. their view on the world is misguided and they need help.

I am not saying my view is any better but god damn.........

Peta at one point wanted to call fish....."Sea Kittens".....WTF..........



There is a reason Humans are on top of the food chain and I think Peta wants us to go to the bottom....


as I remember .....herbivores, carnivores and omnivores.......
Peta wants us to become herbivores
If my memory serves me right we fall into the omnivore category.....

blah blah blah rant rant rant.........

I HATE PETA.............

i think i prefer tree-huggers.......



and that thing on the kid's prom is just wrong........

seeds of rebellion are planted by suffocation of freedom which this country was founded on......
that and injustice towards those who deserve justice will cause rebellion.
