Is plain barking madness and makes me wonder why these people are actually allowed to thieve so much oxygen unpunished.

Intelligence and education are, in general, good things to have to help you carve a path through life. Sometimes though, you can have too much of it and you start being stupid. This is a prime example of the latter.

Having owned both Cat & Dog, I can see there is a case to argue to make sure that the animal is well cared-for and humanely treated.

But 'Animal Ethics' ? 'Strewth !

Sorry but this is surely a wind-up!!!DT_Xtremez_19: the next thing you know this bunch of moon-units will achieve credibility and government funding!!!!!DT_Xtremez_09: Maybe the latter is the greater certainty!!!!DT_Xtremez_09:

These academics are a waste of the education system.

The best comment was the guy who said he was off to watch an episode of 'Auf Weidersehen Human Companion Animal" This weekend. Absolute comedy genius!! DT_Xtremez_14:

Bunch of slackers, I'm off to kick my cat.

Oh this is brilliant! As if I dog or cat cares if it is called a pet!?

 

[Doctor Cruces]

And I thought TV critics, food critics, art critics et al were the most worthless forms of life on the planet. Seems I have another job to add to the list!

Honestly, how do supposedly intelligent people get paid to waste their time this way??

I'm obviously not a high enough life form to understand!

So, if I'm a geordie, instead of referring to my moose as pet, I now call her dog, cat or biatch?

And I thought art critics were the most worthless forms of life on the planet.

Wash your mouth out, you beastly little pet, before I stick my pig's bristle brush up your nostril!

Don't worry, the professor has been licking his balls again.

[Kipper Fleet Bloke]

Arrrrrrr over here in the 'commercials', they call pet owners 'pet parents' - like you've interfered with a dog to produce some offspring......................I suppose that's feasable in some parts over here

 

[Sarge]
