PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is inviting you to an Iams demonstration on Tuesday January 6th, 2004 at 12:00 noon at the corner of Robson and Burrard. (In front of the Virgin Megastore.) in Vancouver, BC.

We will be encouraging people to boycott Iams as they continue to allow tests on animals. This is a 'Snarl In' demonstration, so if you have a socialized dog companion, please bring him/her out, we will have signs for them to wear! We will have all materials provided so please just come.

For nearly 10 months in 2002 and early 2003, a PETA investigator went undercover at an Iams contract testing laboratory and discovered a dark and sordid secret beneath the wholesome image of the dog- and cat-food manufacturer: dogs gone crazy from intense confinement to barren steel cages and cement cells, dogs left piled on a filthy paint-chipped floor after having chunks of muscle hacked from their thighs; dogs surgically debarked; horribly sick dogs and cats languishing in their cages, neglected and left to suffer with no veterinary care. Please see Iamscruelty.com for more information.

Please contact Holly Fraser hollyf@peta.org 757-622-7382 ext 1598 to RSVP or with questions, thanks!
