Just read that Battersea Cats and Dogs Home have received £120,000 from P@H. It seems as though many of the large Charities now agree with all P@H do regarding their 'Adoption Centres'
Think it is a case of 'Money Talks'
This I think. I think its very hard for charities now and they are getting desperate. There are too many charities and causes to donate to and they are all competing harder than ever. So even a deal with the devil might be appealing if things are desperate. I don't like it but I think they are using whatever tactics they can to survive.
This, the Dogs Trust are supplied with P@H own brand food. I think even some of the smaller independant charities can apply for a helping hand from P@H.
Doesn't exactly change the fact P@H are the main cause of the problem (in the case of rabbits anyway).
I wouldn't say that accepting the donation means that they are in support of it at all - I would just think that they are taking what they can get to enable them to keep going. Of course it would be better for them not to sell animals, but it won't ever change so the charities may as well benefit in whatever way they can. I am heavily involved with a Charity whom is given donations from them (both monetary and otherwise) but in no way do we support them or their ethos.

I would doubt that 'most' large animal welfare charities would be supporting P@H. In my experience there is a lot of talking and negotiating with P@H to come to a conclusion that's very sympathetic to animals. If it means that more rescued animals are adopted in the 'correct' way (Home visit, vetting the potential guardians etc) than are bought via pet shops then I'm all in favour
In a way that kind of confirms my thoughts. They are a multi million pound company and with money comes power.
If it is no longer OK to sell Puppies and Kittens why is it OK for them to sell Rabbits, GPs etc....etc ?
If it's not OK to obtain Puppies from mass produced Puppy Mills why is it OK for them to obtain their Rabbits from a similar 'Rabbit Mill' ?
