PETA has launched a new campaign urging people to obtain their pets from animal shelters, and ensure they spay and neuter them as soon as possible, in order to combat rising numbers of unwanted cats and dogs. Talented burlesque performer, ex-wife of shock-rocker Marilyn Manson and animal rights advocate Dita Von Teese has decided to use her fame to help PETA alert people to the implications of irresponsible pet ownership, and stars as a raunchy schoolteacher in a new PETA video designed to educate people on the advantages of spaying and neutering their pets.
Thousands of healthy dogs and cats are put down each year in Britain because there are no homes for them to go to. That this could be avoided by a simple trip to the vets - which, it seems, so many people can't be bothered to make - is a heartbreakingly sad idea. As well as preventing unwanted pregnancies, spaying or neutering also lessens the risk of animals contracting contagious diseases, and causes male cats to be far less prone to fighting.
