It was only after the cat’s…

  • An alert from PETA (on animal testing)

    We have always spoken up against animal testing as it is one of the most cruel industries on earth. What’s more, it is often unnecessary and unreliable too because it does not make sense to test our human products on animals. We are biologically different. With the advancement of science, there are already other methods…

    I may need to find a home for Snow White. (Snow White is probably one of the back neighbour’s many cats.)
