Animal Aid campaigner Rachel King said: "Christmas should be a joyful time for all, but for reindeer used as 'props' in festive events it can mean increased stress and misery.

ReplyDeleteOh, true!
"There is a shock waiting when it returns..."

With cats, the first question should always be 'who's exploiting whom?'
"As soon as they see me through the kitchen window they go straight to the feed tray and glare at me if it's empty..."
