EMERGENCY UPDATE FOR Taxpayer: By now, you know that our campaign to de-fund the University of Connecticut’s lab kitten torture is under siege. However, our top investigators just uncovered unmistakable evidence that the government may ram through funding for a separate deadly experiment on 7 kittens. Without an overwhelming grassroots response, our campaign budget will break under the unsustainable weight of fighting a two-front war. Read below and take immediate action! UNSUBSCRIBE
Taxpayer — the stakes just got higher.
Another 7 cats’ lives are on the line! And the government funding deadline to save them is February 29th (tomorrow night!)
Taxpayer, first it was the University of Connecticut (UConn). Now, the University of Pittsburgh (UPitt) is following suit. They’re doubling down on painful cat testing!
In less than 24 hours, UPitt’s white coats will try to secure more tax funding for bizarre and deadly ELECTRO-SHOCK EXPERIMENTS.
If they get away with it, seven more cats – the “UPitt 7” – will die painfully on our tax dime!
Screenshot from NIH RePORTER – the government database that tracks payout information for taxpayer-funded animal experiments.
Our research team just found this lab (and its pending funding deadline) on the NIH’s website, and my stomach is in knots.
Unless we can fund a second rapid response campaign, here’s what may happen to the “UPitt 7” cats:
- STOMACHS SLICED OPEN: First, the white coats will rip open her stomach and wrap her bladder with "electrode nets."
- DEATH BY BOTCHED SURGERY: Some will be “terminated due to surgical complications.”
- ELECTRIC SHOCKS: Then, the experimenters will perform “awake experiments" where they send electric shocks to her internal organs. She will lose all control of her bowels.
- ABUSIVE NEGLIGENCE: UPitt’s negligent white coats will likely deprive her of pain medication. It wouldn’t be the first time they lied about providing pain relief to their lab animals.
- YOUR BILL: Over $3.4 MILLION to date – and in less than 24 hours, they’re planning to take even MORE of your money.

Block Payout #OT2OD025297!
Save the UPitt 7 >> >>
Taxpayer, if you’re not enraged yet, you will be when you hear this…
After 7 years of torturing cats and wasting millions of dollars, UPitt’s white coats have not published a single study. NOT ONE!
It’s a complete waste of taxpayer money and innocent lives!
There is not a single finding or publication linked to payout #OT2OD025297. It’s unforgivable!
Taxpayer, enough is enough.
We MUST cut funding for payout #OT2OD025297 NOW. Seven lives depend on it!
The funding deadline is MIDNIGHT TOMORROW, so we must act fast if we want to prevent the torture of the "UPitt 7"!
But here’s the problem: As you probably know by now, we’re already in the middle of an ugly battle with UConn to block the purchase of dozens more kittens that they plan to mutilate in similar tests.
Right now, we don’t have enough money in our war chest to fight on two fronts.
If we can’t raise another $30,000 before midnight tomorrow, we will have to choose between ending UConn’s cat torture or saving the UPitt 7 kittens.
Taxpayer, that’s not a choice we want to have to make.
Save ALL the lab cats!
Take Action NOW >>
2/29 GOVERNMENT DEADLINE: Taxpayer, with your help before the government’s funding deadline, I know we can win BOTH campaigns. We can de-fund UConn’s kitten torture, save the UPitt 7, and put painful cat testing in the litterbox of history!
Here's why: White Coat Waste Project (WCW) is the leader in ENDING cat labs.
We’ve shut down nearly every cat experiment inside the entire federal government. We also de-funded Putin’s lab kitten abuse in Russia.
But Taxpayer, if we’re going to save ALL THE CATS from botched surgeries, electric-shock experiments, and near-certain death, then we need your help.
Your support will enable us to launch rapid response efforts to help raise awareness, pressure federal and state policymakers, hold the universities’ white coats accountable for their actions, and retire lab survivors to loving homes.
So please, chip in whatever you can afford today.
Thank you for your compassion and support,
