Duuuh . Maybe that's 1) because you're not an animal, and 2) because
you've helped to support their livelihood?

Do you have ANY clue what goes on in the fur farming industry? Do you
care??!

NO ONE who supports this practice, either directly or indirectly, can
logically or reasonably be described as KIND.

At least some of those poor ferrets might find a better home someday.
The same cannot be said of the mink. For them, death - even the
indescribably agonizing one they'll suffer - would be a release.

It never ceases to amaze me how people can rationalize and justify the
most horrendous thing when it's in their self-interest to do so. I
don't know whether you are breeders or have some economic ties to the
McKay operation, but you are clearly not thinking in terms of simple
moral decency.

An animal collector "loves" his/her animals too. Loves them to death,
in fact. People are often shocked to find out about the collector's
activities because they seem like such "nice, compassionate - KIND -
people."

A collector will stare directly at a pile of corpses and insist the
animals are being well-cared for.

Now, please correct my spelling, grammar and/or syntax. Hah!!!
