Okay...here it goes again...

P.E.T.A. wants to rename fish as Sea Kittens...why? Because no one would want to eat them if they are named Kittens.

Catfish anyone? ^^

Poor PETA, another good idea gone too far....

Jag

They worry me too sometimes...this does.

Sea Kittens...who thought of that little idea of joy?  ::)

If it weren't PETA, I might accuse them of beating a dead horse.  ::)

Is it a sort of sea kitten? Yes, please, I'll have one!^^

In my opinion, what the PETA activities achieve is mostly a negative image for animal rights activists ;D !

But you can create your own sea kitten, guys!

*giggles just a bit*
I really should get me one of these.

Jag

*sadly admits that she did make her own Sea Kitten while she was on the website and read the Sea Kitten Stories*

But I didn't save the Sea Kitten.

In some countries, they are food sources.

Why should calling them 'Sea Kittens' make people treat them any better?  It didn't work for the brine shrimp...

What are we supposed to call kittens now, lap anemones???

PETA's idea could backfire, causing people to think of kittens as food sources.
I don't think I've ever seen a PETA plan that truly worked the way they thought it would.

Meat may be murder, but it's delicious murder. ;D

The chineese would. Cat is a vital part of asian diets.
