Me-Ouch!

Ever wonder how your regularly used cosmetics or cleaning supplies got passed to be used in human society? The most common answer given by over 75% of America: Animal Testing.

Every year, millions of animals are poisoned, blinded, or killed in crude tests to evaluate toxicity levels of consumer’s products, such as lipstick, disinfectant spray, shampoo, etc. Rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits and other animals are forced to swallow or inhale huge quantities of a test substance, only to endure the pain of a chemical eating away at themselves. And with at least 94% of the world’s tests being done on animals, did you know that only 6% of testing is left to be done by humans!

Over 100,000 human deaths each year are caused by these products, only because the scientists think that if it is safe for this animal, it should be safe for humans.

Could you imagine your pet, being forced to swallow a large pill, or having to be stuck inhaling cleaning spray, only to make sure it is safe! The only harm you’re doing is wasting away the life of an innocent animal! So stop the testing!
