I hate that people have forcefully bred such a horrific deformity into cats.
Same! I adopted him from a rescue that specializes in Persians and Himalayans because they end up in rescue situations so often.
I'm glad you adopted. Does he have breathing difficulties?
No, thankfully he’s been pretty healthy overall. He had bad infections in both of his eyes when I adopted him, but those are since healed up and he has relatively wide nostrils for a Persian, so we’re looking good.
same with bulldogs and shih tzus, and the other deformities in dogs.
Nice to see another vegan about. I will never understand how more people aren't vegan, what with the sheer level of cruelty, body horror and ecocide constantly everywhere around us. The vystopia is real.
Right? There’s no excuse anymore to not be vegan. It’s been many thousands of years since eating animals could have been excused
