63. Meat=animal, no pet store agreement to not eat, though shelters do
Some animal shelters and other "adopt a pet" places have an agreement that if they don't think you're taking care of the animal you got from them as they want, they can take it away. However, I have not seen pet stores require this. Many sell feeder fish and pnkies (baby rats/mice) for fish/rodent food too. Meat comes from animals. If people want to eat meat, this is a good thing to be faced with. And these kids are a good age to deal with this. This is why many teenagers become moral vegetarians, at least for a while. Meat=murdering an animal. If you're ok with eating an animal, you should be ok with killing one. And does it make killing an animal worse because the animal in question may be thought of as a pet? meat is murder.
