Hi Everyone!
This posting may be a little more somber than our usual postings but if you are an animal lover you definitely need to know what’s happening.
Did you know there are hundreds of companies that still perform / fund animal testing and it is a needless necessity in this day and age? Please note,
per PETA’s website, just a few of that companies that we know and actually help support these tests by purchasing their products from these companies:
- Iams - yes believe it or not!
- Mars Candy (M&M’s, Snickers, etc.)
- Numerous Universities
- Phillip Morris - Cigarrettes
- Proctor & Gamble - Cover Girl, Clairol, Max Factor and much more
- Arm & Hammer
- Colgate Palmolive
- Dial
- Clorox
- Johnson & Johnson
- L’Oreal
- Sally Hansen
The list goes on and on and on…..
Please see the attached pdf for a complete list of companies that test on animals.
If you visit PETA you can learn more about animal testing and you can even sign petitions against these companies.
The best way to stop companies from using animals for testing is to refuse to purchase their products and to write and tell them why you won’t be applying their eye shadow, cleaning your clothes with their detergent, or washing your child’s hair with their shampoo. The power is in the hands of the consumer, you and I.

Remember you can make a difference! Please be the voice of these helpless animals by not supporting companies that test and petitioning them to stop.
Thanks everyone!!
