This is a list of companies you probably all buy from that test on animals.

There are plenty on companies that don't test and have great products, and that shows that testing does not need to be done. For a list of animal friendly companies please visit:
www.caringconsumer.com

Please check out the list because you will see that a lot of the animal friendly companies are companies that you have heard of and can buy their products at your regular everyday store.
Helping save animals can be as easy as switching from Covergirl to Revlon.

Wow thanks for the info. Quite a few of these brands are pretty suprising to me, especially Aussie ( thought they always said they don't test on animals...) and the Healing Garden

I know. I used to feed my cat Iams until I found out about www.iamscruelty.com

They also have a list of brands that do not test on animals on that site! Check it out!

Adidas

My first instinct was a cat running around looking like RunDMC, but seriously WTF do some of these companies do with these poor animals?

If they manufacture cologne, they might spritz stuff in their eyes. There's also, IMO, a lot of stupid animal testing. I wouldn't do it myself, but I can understand testing critical medicines on animals. That I can get behind, but I can't see the point of a lot of these tests with consumer products.

The thing with these lists is that the particular brand may not be tested on animals, but the parent company tests on animals. For instance, Proctor and Gamble is one the worst when it comes to animal testing, and they own a lot of brands.

I don't think there's really a standard for labeling things with "No animal testing."

Damn. That outlook is so bleak. Eye-opening.

Completely agree. I thought Aussie was cruel free. Wow.

Most of this stuff I use it get me pissed of that they use they products to test on animals.

Please bear in mind that not all animal testing is "cruel" and very little can be described as "torture". In some countries, certain classes of products are required to undergo animal testing by law before they are declared safe to release to the general public.

It's also fair to say that companies putting out products which haven't themselves been tested on animals are still relying on data from safety research carried out on component ingredients which most certainly has been done on animals. The whole picture is a lot less clear cut than it first appears.

Remember though; M·A·C isn't tested on animals, it's tested on supermodels

you know i was looking at that iamscruelty.com just to see what it's all about...and i understand and agree that some of the things they do are horrible and just shouldn't happen.

but Peta advising you to feed your dog vegan dog food isn't much better. by nature, dogs are omnivores which means they need meat in their diets. there are some proteins in meat that just can't be found in anything else...and depriving your dog of that is, IMHO, cruel.

labwom · 01-21-2007, 12:07 AM #13 (**permalink**)

I don't feed my dogs and cats vegan food, I just stay away from iams.
