Instead of "Skin a cat", try "Groom a pussy."

You're thinking of the ATF and dogs. PETA will euthanize your cat by lethal injection to save it from a life of slavery (apparently they don't realize the cats are the masters)

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Nah they will just give it a shot of something and kill it.

Get two birds stoned at once

That's what I'd do with a million dollars.

Stone two birds with one joint

Quick reminder: PETA animal shelters kill more animals than any other animal shelter in the area they operate. The AKC has asked PETA to stop killing animals.

They've also been known to trespass onto people's property, steal their pets and almost immediately kill them.

That's disingenuous because PETA shelters do not selectively take in animals with a high chance of adoption. From Wikipedia:

In 2012, the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said that it had in the past considered changing PETA's status from "shelter" to "euthanasia clinic", citing PETA's willingness to take in "anything that comes through the door, and other shelters won't do that."

You really need to give a source if you make such a claim.

[–] Darkaga@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

You can just go to PETA's site. They actually advocate against no-kill shelters.

A contest where the American kennel club comes out looking like the good guy

There's more than one way to wear a hat.

[–] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That’s actually a good replacement

Pin the bat?

I regularly feed three birds with one biscuit. Two with a scone would be as easy as drowning kittens

[–] Sibbo@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

They replaced anti animal language with anti plant language. Just because roses have thorns does not mean they are objects!

Just wait until... who ever flower PETA is comes, and finds sayings with stones.

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago

I actually quite like "Feed a fed horse".

This has Ken M vibes.
