Dear Taxpayer,  

Thanks to all who donated to end dog and primate testing at Case Western U. and Rocky Mountain Lab. And speaking of saving lives... 

This week, five years ago, we scored the #1 WIN of all time for cats in labs. 

A WCW investigation revealed how the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture’s (USDA) notorious “Kitten Slaughterhouse” killed and burned thousands of felines in a federal laboratory… and, as you’ll see, all around the world. 

Taxpayer, it matters more than you think.

Kitten Slaughterhouse was the first cat lab WCW shut down. But it wasn’t our last. 

With the help of our grassroots army and bipartisan allies in Congress, WCW went on a five-year winning streak that exposed and CLOSED EVERY SINGLE CAT LAB causing pain and distress across the U.S. government. 

The fall of the USDA in April 2019 was followed by an unprecedented string of WCW victories ending Veterans Affairs (VA) labs that suffocated cats in Los Angeles, severed their spines in Louisville, and abused kittens in Cleveland.  

It also led to the 1st-ever federal policies to retire and release lab survivors at the VA, FDA, and NIH.  

This landmark campaign ended the culture of losing; no other animal protection group had shut down a federal feline lab in four decades. 

After following USDA’s foreign money trail, WCW asked: what else are we funding in China?  

In April 2020—exactly one year after exposing Kitten Slaughterhouse via a Freedom of Information Act investigation—WCW uncovered how American taxpayers funded the Wuhan Lab and the probable origin of COVID. 

WCW also exposed how the NIH funded 353 more animal labs across 57 foreign countries—including $770K to a Russian lab that de-brained kittens and forced crippled cats to run on treadmills.  

Last April, we united the GOP and President Biden to end NIH’s funding for these Russian cat experiments. And, for the first time in history, U.S. funding was cut for ALL animal testing across a foreign country. 

Taxpayer, these wins happened because of YOU.

So on behalf of every government lab animal—THANK YOU. 
—WCW Team 

P.S. Taxpayer, Take Action: You helped WCW end ALL painful government cat labs, but the VA Secretary is trying to bring them back! 

Please take a moment to email Congress and prevent the torture of 7 more cats (the “Stokes 7”).
