I see they are hiding under what seems to be a sofa. I share this piece of information in case it ever helps anyone (I attended a canine and feline first aid course last year) be extremely careful when opening a sofa bed when people are home as cats tend to hide underneath because their tail could get caught in the mechanism with very nasty consequences. I don’t know if it’ll be of help to anyone but I figured it was worth a shot if it can help prevent injuries on even just a single cat.

I called them the cute roaches

I agree, not all natural products are innocuous but still isn’t the point that organic IS less awful? I’m thinking especially regarding biodiversity and conditions in which the animals live (at least in France, it is the label with the strictest standards for animal “welfare”). I get that it’s not perfect but I don’t think we should wait to have the perfect system to get rid of some of the absolutely shitty parts in the current system.

Is it more expensive? To the customer yes. For real, once you include environmental benefits, health costs from cancers etc and take into account the fact that organic farmers usually receive zero help from governments (I’m considering the french case here), you realise that the price gap is not as big as you think and that a major part of it is because pesticides have made agriculture unnaturally “cheap” (i.e. with a lot of invisible costs).

I would love to see a massive boycott of MacDonald everywhere (at least in the US), I am surprised that this hasn’t come up somewhere online yet. That would be powerful signal IMO
