Albert ~ where did I criticize? I am laughing at dressing them up.
It`s pathetic and disgusting and also very cruel………
I think it’s cool. At least they are not being hurt.
erm well I put antlers on my dogs at Xmas and decorate the rig so it looks like a sleigh
In my defence I don’t eat them afterwards
Well its OK really, nothing compared to what happens to them in laboratories. At least they’re not having chemicals poured in their eyes etc…
Whatever floats your boat.
Cant see any harm in it if they arent being hurt.
lol……. they look so cute…
I don’t agree with dressing animals up, now I have put a bow on a dog or ribbon when giving to someone as a present, to be taken off…
Don’t agree with it. Neither do I agree with little girls doing those beauty pageants in America. Gross.
I don’t like to see animals dressed up and I find it a little ‘sad ‘ when I do see them like this, but they are not being harmed in any way so whatever floats their boat lol.
Aww they’re cute but i couldn’t eat more than two.
Nothing surprises me after 15 years of being gobsmacked by Spanish attitudes to animals.
This is what passes for fun where I live.
Note…now the goose is dead.
Up until a few years ago teh gooose was alive.
Well, they’re not being hurt so it’s not bad.
It could be worse.
I’m not a fan of dressing animals up, especially if they’re parading them around for a big crowd, it’s quite cruel.
nothing is really wrong but i dont agree
Its quite silly, but not cruel.
I think it’s another example of animal exploitation by those who think their sad needs are more important and the poor animals as usual have no say in the matter.
I prefer to eat guinnea pigs. They taste like chicken.
First of all they taste delicious. They’re stuffed with garlic and herbs and roasted until the skin is crispy. Second, how can you criticize that when we eat cows, pigs, sheep, and other animals? It’s the same thing.
its funny
at least they are no being crammed into tiny cages in a shed waiting to be slaughtered like battery chickens are
I think it’s terrible. It’s needlessly cruel. I won’t be visiting that country ever. Barbarians.
is there no animal safe from a meat-eaters gaze?
how sad.
poor guinea piggies.
We cant criticise, we dress horses up like poncey ballerinas for dressage events and have you ever been back stage at a dog show??
Its not really that different
