PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION TO HELP STOP THIS HORROR

Scientists at Cardiff University in Wales have conducted a particularly horrific animal experiment. They sewed shut the eyes of newborn kittens to "learn how the brain responds to sensory deprivation." The same experiment--funded by tax dollars--also placed cameras in the kittens' brains.

Tell Cardiff University that it must stop these experiments immediately. »

This research is both sadistic and frivolous. The differences between humans and cats are so considerable that research obtained this way will discover nothing that will save or improve human life.

A United States veterinarian has confirmed that the procedure was extremely painful for the kittens.

This is an advantage of research potential gone horrifically wrong. It must not continue.

Tell Cardiff University to stop conducting these experiments on animals! »
