Help Animals Today!

Dear ,

Experimenters at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the US intentionally deafened a gentle cat named Double Trouble, implanted metal coils in her eyes, and screwed a bolt into the top of her head. Can you imagine?

Records show that she developed infections at the surgery sites and her face became partially paralysed. The experimenters eventually killed her because she became too ill to continue and the experiment had failed. They had frightened her, repeatedly tortured her, kept her caged and suffering, made her sick, and killed her - for nothing.

Every year, millions of animals around the world are condemned to suffer in hideous procedures – some as painful as those Double Trouble endured.

Your contribution today will support our work to stop such cruel experiments on cats and other animals who are trapped in laboratory cages right now.

We have launched our biggest fundraising drive of the year – the Global "Stop Animal Tests" Challenge – and every cent goes towards our efforts to end the horrific abuse that animals like this cat endure in laboratories every day.

, will you please support PETA's Global "Stop Animal Tests" Challenge right now and help us meet our $60,000 goal to fund our work to end painful, deadly tests on animals?

Double Trouble – just like any cat you have ever loved – deserved a life of care and affection instead of enduring months of nothing but pain and fear.

The horrors like those she was subjected to aren't limited to callous laboratories overseas. Right now, frightened cats, dogs, monkeys, and other animals are being abused and killed in laboratories right here in Australia and around the world. They are cowering in fear and enduring the pain of implantations, infections, and worse, and they will pay with their lives for the rotten science behind these rotten tests.

By making a gift right now, you'll be giving PETA a great boost in our work to help animals facing cruel experiments.

An intensive PETA US campaign led to the closure of the laboratory in which Double Trouble suffered so horribly, and the surviving cats were rescued. They now live in loving homes.

Thanks to PETA's and our affiliates' attention-grabbing campaigns, millions of people worldwide have learned about the horrors that animals endure in laboratories and have joined the calls to end the abuse. Our movement to stop deadly experiments on animals is growing, and we need your help to keep it going!

Please donate today and help stop animal testing.

Could you also help spread the word about the abuse of animals in laboratories by writing letters to the editors of newspapers and sharing our "Animals Are Not Ours to Experiment On" page with your friends and family on Facebook or Twitter? Please e-mail us if you'd like to receive our anti-dissection leaflets, and post them on community notice boards and other such places in your area.

Kind regards,
