One can justify anything that suits your habits, like eating meat and encouraging a seven year old to watch a slaughter of an animal he watched grow up. How about a gentler, kinder world? Let vegans be vegans and carnivores can continue to justify the slaughter of innocent souls implying there is no cruelty and suffering just because a seven year old thinks it is fun to watch.

Some photographs to work on convincing you to stop eating meat. Picture lamb chops. For lamb chops babies have to be separated from their mothers, loaded on a lorry and scared stiff have their throats slit.

Lambs are adorable, helpless tender beings. Their mothers care for them and call for them if they aren't nearby and both ewes and lambs fight for life.

Nature sent me two more souls to care for - a ram and a ewe again. These twins are much smaller and weaker than the ones born seven weeks ago. They are still too tiny and weak to suck out a bottle. Their mom is the ewe who I rescued last year who had blue udder. She's a very good mother but is compromised from the udder situation last year. A local farmer has lent me his castration device, now I must find someone to do the deed. I can't get myself to hurt the rams even if it is for a good cause.
PS All the bleating is because I had picked the lambs up and separated them from their mother to relocate the group to the warmer barn. Mom ran behind me carrying her babies. The bleats were their first sounds.
