Well pets aren't going away and won't be any time soon so I rather work towards a compromise and better treatment towards animals than call for abolition which isn't going to happen. Having been volunteering in animal welfare most of my life I have seen a better response from the public when ones cause is more realistic and reasonable, abolition won't work for most. Calling animals slaves doesn't cut it for your average Joe and may even insult some.

I appreciate how many of you feel I just don't feel it's realistic with our society and would rather protect the animals than see them gone. Dogs are no longer wild animals who can fend for themselves, cats could do better but the reality is we domesticated them it's up to us to protect them, not set them free when they won't survive. To each his own. I want to worth with the public not alienate them.
