Whole new levels of batshit...
Not wank in the traditional sense, but c'mon. It's PETA. They're wanky all by themselves, often without even trying. Their newest not-so-new campaign? Save the Sea Kittens!

That's right. Sea kittens.

What, you ask, is a sea kitten? Just look at your local fish market, and you can find all sorts of cruelly butchered sea kittens! Trout kittens and sole kittens and cod kittens and haddock kittens.

Yup. This batshit is to make us feel like horrible, horrible people for killing fish by calling them kittens, because what sort of monster would kill and eat a kitten?!

The site really speaks for itself, complete with a form letter to send to your congressperson, a "dress up your kitten" game, and that old PETA standby, the rather graphic, overblown "children's story" that turns animals into neuroscientists (I'm not kidding) and humans into murderers.

Personally, I enjoy my sea kittens battered and fried and served with British chips. Mmm, sea kittens and chips...

Edit: My bad, it's not new to some people.

I just fed my cat shrimp and lobster chowder flavored cat food. If I'd known I was encouraging him to be a cannibal, I'd have tried harder to make him try the Vegan Diet for Obligate Carnivores again.

The vegan grocer down my street sells vegan cat food. It makes me want to write OBLIGATE CARNIVORE over their front window in red paint.

o.o Does this grocer and the idiots who would buy vegan cat food realize that this could be potentially harmful to the cats? So much for the whole "do no harm to animals" thing...

"Could be"? "Potentially"? Unless they've found themselves a nice reliable non-animal source of taurine, it's bad, bad news for Mittens.

I don't have to encourage my cat to be a cannibal, if I'm eating sea kitten anywhere near her, she lunges. Like the crazed cannibal she is.

I don't have to encourage my cat to be a cannibal. If she sees one of the other cats anywhere near her, she lunges.

:(
