That is absolutely false, as reading any of their literature makes
clear, and their track record with rescued animals. You are either
grossly ignorant or deliberately lying.

The ultimate goal of animal rights organizations is indeed
to end the pet trade and allow animals to live free of human
domination, which is a form of slavery. But that *never*
involves killing of existing animals, except in cases of
euthanasia where death is to the benefit of the animal. It
*always* means preventing existing "pet" animals from breeding
new generations. PETA has much in its publications about
proper care of existing companion animal, including an entire
book Ingrid Newkirk has written about care of companion cats.
PETA is also involved in a variety of outreach and rescue
programs for companion animals.
