Last tidbit from Pet Product News, Jan 96 issue: "Wasseman [spokesperson for PetsMart] said PetsMart's corporate donations are made through PetsMart Charities and that none are made to either PETA or HSUS. A statement issued by PetsMart reads in part: "PetsMart has no formal or informal relationship with PETA not HSUS. PetsMart is unaware of any investment that either organization has made in PetsMart stock. Any rumors to the contrary are false. Our company chooses to be neutral in matters of lobbying, petitioning, or boycotting of any kind. It is simply not productive for us to take sides in controversial issues." ==================================== Just thought it was interesting to see PeTA and HSUS lumped together. I've always known that PeTA's ultimate goal is to remove all animals, including pets, from the care and use of humans - is HSUS turning down this same path??? [Posted in FML issue 1452]
