Makeup Tested on Cats is Unethical
Makeup is part of the multi-billion dollar beauty industry. Makeup tested on cats is cruel. They suffer because they are kept in tiny cages and have blush, mascara, and lipstick tested on them. Yuck! Makeup does not belong on animals, it belongs humans.
Makeup tested on cats is unethical. Cats do not wear makeup, men and women wear makeup. There’s absolutely no reason to test makeup on cats. Humans sell their blood and plasma; they could offer to have companies test makeup on them for a price. Some people will do whatever as long as they get paid for it.
Urban Decay is a company that does not test makeup on cats. In fact, they have a vegan line of products. They are one of many companies that do not test on cats. Other companies that do not test on cats are: Almay, Bobbi Brown, Burt’s Bees, and many others.
The Humane Society and animal shelters have a list of people who are banned from adopting cats and kittens. Why? Because these people are known to sell animals to companies so they can test makeup on cats. It’s sad that people only adopt cats just to sell them into torture. It’s like adopting a child and selling her into child slavery.
Some companies put the following words on their packages: not tested on animals. Unfortunately, this does not mean anything. Look for the “rabbit” symbol — a rabbit in a circle with a line through it. When you see the rabbit symbol, you’ll know the company does not test on animals.

Avoid purchasing makeup tested on cats. Some companies will register with PETA because they produce a list of companies that do not test on animals. Before you purchase your favorite makeup, you may want to consult the list.
Makeup tested on cats is cruel and unusual punishment. Animals are not put on this Earth so humans can perform tests on them. Cats are more than pets; they become part of the family. They love us unconditionally and accept us, flaws and all. Think about this before you purchase your favorite brand of makeup.
