Petition: Help End the Suffering of Laboratory Kittens and Retire Any Survivors to Loving Homes

Today, We’re reaching out to you with urgency and a heartfelt request for immediate help.

Our investigators just uncovered a deeply disturbing government kitten breeding operation that has sent shockwaves through our organization and reaffirmed the importance of our mission.

BREAKING INVESTIGATION: Auburn University is purpose-breeding thousands of kittens to be born with horrific genetic diseases. Then, the kittens are abused in taxpayer-funded experiments.

The footage we’ve unearthed from Auburn’s lab reveals the horrifying extent of this abuse.

What you see above is a video of a brave, but helpless Siamese lab kitten (Govt ID #8-1761) struggling to walk. Here’s why:

• BORN TO BE IN PAIN: She was purpose-bred at Auburn’s kitten mill to suffer from a rare genetic disorder that progressively destroys nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
• DEBILITATING SYMPTOMS: Vision loss. Excruciating bone pain. Head tremors. Paralysis. Seizures. Each day was worse than the last.
• “ENDPOINT:” Auburn’s lab notes say the little girl in this video was “near her humane endpoint at 6.4 months of age.” She was likely killed shortly after.
• YOUR TAX BILL? $196,458!

Take Emergency Action >>>

Kitten #8-1761 is not alone – this is just one example of the taxpayer-funded torture taking place inside Auburn’s laboratory walls.

Other tests include inducing BRAIN DAMAGE, OBESITY, DIABETES, INFECTIONS, and even forcing them to ingest TOXIC, experimental drugs.

EMERGENCY SITUATION: Auburn’s greedy white coats are trying to ram through MORE tax funding to subsidize its sadistic operation and conduct EVEN MORE horrific experiments.

Just last year, they bred, imprisoned, and abused 338 cats and kittens in their labs — a 40 percent increase!

Please show your immediate support and join our efforts to cut ALL taxpayer funding to Auburn’s cat labs, end the experiments, and retire any survivors to loving homes.

This isn’t the first time we’ve asked for your help to save government lab kittens.

Because of your Support, the White Coat Waste Project (WCW) has:

• Shut down the Los Angeles VA’s $5 million suffocation experiments.
• Annihilated the USDA’s $22 million “Kitten Slaughterhouse.”
• Cut the Cleveland VA’s $4.9 million bladder and constipation tests.
• Ended the VA’s $1.3 million treadmill torture at the Louisville lab.
• De-funded NIH $770,000 kitten experiments in Russia.

WCW is the most effective organization for getting cats and animals out of labs. We’re the ONLY group to close federal feline labs in at least four decades!

When you sign our new petition, we’ll do it for Auburn’s kittens next – and turn them from lab cats to lap cats!

Are you in?

Please watch the video obtained by WCW and see the heartbreaking reality of Auburn University’s kitten torture. Then contact Congress to help us end this suffering!
