I think extreme treatments for animals who can't understand what's going on is cruel. But I know that others make different decisions out of love, so try not to be judgmental about it.

On edit - what an idiot I am. I realize that's an idiotic statement - to say "I think it's cruel" and then try to ameliorate by saying "I try not to be judgmental" - what could be more judgmental?
