Bransby Home of Rest for Horses had their open day today, in the future we hope to be there selling our vegan goodies, their next open day is in September. It's a nice change after yesterday's derby to see retired and rescued Horses and Donkeys.
It was however an example of how one issue, non-vegan animal charities can do more harm than good for animals overall. There were people selling "pet food" made from one slaughtered animal to feed to another...dont care so much about them then? There was meat and dairy on sale, hot dog vans to ice-cream trucks, again for an animal charity the hypocrisy of it all is so obvious and very sad. This doesnt mean we should avoid these events necessarily, rather we can get involved and try to open other minds to the inconsistent morality society has regarding other animals and go some way to redress the balance.

If you are not vegan, go vegan. It’s easy; it’s better for your health and for the planet. But, most important, it’s the morally right thing to do. If you are vegan, educate everyone you can about veganism.- Gary Francione
