Their Lives, Our Voices 2008 Wrap-up
Compassionate Action for Animals
What We Do
Compassionate Action for Animals works to reduce the suffering of farmed animals through outreach and education such as distributing leaflets, cable access shows, vegan food giveaways, and speakers. To build a community of people concerned about animal rights, we host vegetarian potlucks, dine-outs, and social events in Minneapolis and St. Paul.
The Issues
Most of us would like to think that the meat, milk, and eggs we buy come from animals who have lived happy, healthy lives. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. Like cats and dogs, the animals we eat have complex emotions including the ability to suffer. Yet on modern farms, they are treated with such disregard that similar treatment to a cat or dog would be grounds for felony cruelty charges in Minnesota.
