Stop animal testing in cosmetics and household products.

75,000 or more mice, rats, and rabbits suffer and die in cruel and pointless product-testing experiments every year. They die alone and in pain without ever experiencing a gentle touch or a kind voice. Please urge one of the major animal testing companies to stop their cruel testing.
We the undersigned believe that pointless animal testing for your products is not only outdated, but it is very wrong. There are many other companies who create the same products that you do who do not test on animals. Rats mice, and rabbits are not people, so they do not have the same reactions as people to products. For example: morphine calms humans but excites cats, cortisone causes birth defects in mice but not in humans, penicillin kills guiniea pigs and hamsters and aspirin poisons cats. There are other alternatives to this animal cruelty to use because they can feel scared, feel sad, feel nervous, and feel pain just like we can. Please regard this letter and have heart for these animals.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.
