This warms my heart and soul! I believe that animals should never ever be used in research! It is totally unnecessary and so cruel and nasty to test on our beloved animals. I do not know how people who work in places that do test on animals, sleep at night. Animals are here to live on our planet with up not for us!
I hope to read many more stories like this. This world needs to change it’s ways and be completely humane and kind to our beloved animals. They feel pain, fear, love, happiness and every other emotion. Humans that think animals are here for us to use, abuse, exploit, wear, eat etc. are just not getting it. I believe we are here to treat each other and every other living thing with kindness and compassion.
