Thanks for the link for companies that do not test on animals!
I think this is a topic that I hide from, because it is awful to think about. I actually can not even go into a PetSmart of other similar store, because of the caged animals. Zoos seem cruel to me, too. (However, I realize there are some zoos that provide a more natural habitat and are there to save the animals).
But, I don't do anything about this topic, because of my fear. I am not vegetarian, and enjoy eating meat and dairy. However, I don't like to think about the products I am consuming, and whether or not the animals were treated humanely throughout the process.
I guess I feel that if I were to start worrying about animal cruelty, it would flood my every product choice, my diet and my lifestyle.
So, I do very small things and try to buy items that are not tested on animals, are organic and cage-free.
What other steps can I take to help in this area, without going full-force into this topic (as some PETA folks have been known to do extravagant, even harrassing, behavior).
