Animal Action Canada – Come And March With Us!

Stop The Dog & Cat Meat Trade March Route – April 4, 2015 – Toronto – We will be marching to call for an end to the consumption of dog and cat meat around the world. The brutality is staggering and the suffering is extreme before and during  death. Many of these animals are family pets – stolen by criminals and smugglers for this lucrative trade. Thousands are beaten into submission and then cooked while alive. There is a false belief that the meat is tastier when the animal “suffers”.

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 59 – Iggy Oink is pretty sure that most human peoples are familiar with short forms – for instance you say PETA when you really mean People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals or CBC for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Because you understand this somewhat baffling concept Iggy is going to create some Iggyisms which he will publish from time to time – perhaps in lieu of a poem or when he feels like it. Maybe there will be a poetic Iggyism – with Iggy you just never know!

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 58 – Iggy Oink wants to remind you that pigs are not the only animals who are suffering in horrible factory farms all over the world. Human peoples seem to think that it is okay to abuse us and be deliberately cruel because we are animals. This is wrong. Iggy looks at the mess the world is in right now and thinks – “these 2 legged ones are not very bright”.

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 57 – Iggy Oink is a happenin’ little pig. He totally understands kindness and generosity – compassion and family – love and caring and he wonders why human peoples are so dense in the head. These are the things that are important in life and peoples just seem to care about “money and stuff”. Iggy is so much smarter and he is a pig!
