I believe most vegans like animals. Yeah, yeah, carnists, we know your "with ketchup" shit, forget you!

Now what I wanted to struggle you people with...why the fuck do some vegans have pets? Animal stores are a fuck, 100 gorillion dead animals, but unironically! The so called conformation of animals, and the forced breeding, that's just dystopian! And you can adopt, not shop, but most do not! And outdoor cats, that's a catastrophe, especially with vegans! (Sorry for the levity, I know it's serious, but it is the Hexbear injoke)

They make money selling living beings, why would a vegan pay them!?

Sorry for the rant. Vegan btw, I think all animal industries should be shut down, including animal shops! Maybe assistance animals can be an exception, if they can be trained ethically!

What do you think?

Are vegans buying pets from breeders and puppy mills? I have zero facts or analyses on this, but it seems that rescue adoptions is the dominant sentiment even among everyday liberals.

Me neither, I have to admit. I certainly hope you are right about them liberals!

I think it's usually adopted or if it was from a pet store it was from BEFORE they were vegan which i cant really fault them for...
