EMERGENCY UPDATE FOR Taxpayer: You already know about the 21 lab kittens we’re fighting to save from amputation. However, we just uncovered new evidence that NIH is about to ram through funding for a separate experiment to kill 24 cats and harvest their eyes. Without a surge of grassroots support, our budget will break under the unsustainable cost of a two-front war. Read below and take action! Or unsubscribe.
Taxpayer, I stand up for cats.
I’ve dedicated my life to saving them.
My campaigns have laid waste to more experiments on cats and kittens than anyone in American history.
Tonight, I’m leading the campaign to save 24 more felines from losing their eyes… and their lives.
Here's what we know about the “Rochester 24”:
This fight is a personal one for me. More on that story below.
Back in 2019, I shut down my very first cat laboratory: the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture’s “Kitten Slaughterhouse.”
White Coat Waste (WCW) exposed how the USDA forced 3,254 lab kittens to eat diseased parts of 2,182 dogs and cats—strays and pets from China’s wet markets.
Think about that for a minute: dog and cat meat markets abroad. Taxpayer-funded animal experimentation at home… and you were the customer!
$22.5 million in taxes. 50 years of wasteful spending. 5,436 lives lost.
It was the largest cat laboratory in the U.S. federal government. And the greatest moment of my life was leading the campaign that exposed and closed it.
I also personally adopted two of the survivors as pets. One of these cats was Petite (Govt ID #15KEY5).
The USDA purchased Petite for $695. And guess where they bought her from?
Liberty Research.
My own pet came from the very same dealer that sells cats to the Rochester lab!
This is Petite’s (#15KEY5) actual receipt from Liberty. The U.S. government bought Petite for $695—then shipped her to its #1 cat lab. I closed Petite’s lab and adopted her.
This is why tonight’s fight is so important to me, Taxpayer.
From lab cat to lap cat, I gave Petite a real home... complete with Cat TV and KitNipBoxes. I’m forever grateful for your help to save her. Thank you for giving her a better life.
But I don’t want any more cats to suffer like she did.
I don’t want any more kittens to be born—and bred—just to die for government greed.
And I really don’t want any more felines blinded like the Rochester 24.
Sold for $695 to the fed’s #1 cat lab, Petite weighed just 4.9 lbs. They named her ‘Lil Petite’ and tattooed #15KEY5 in her ear. Petite was born at Liberty—the very same place that sells cats to the Rochester lab.
Petite’s lab was the first cat lab I ever shut down… but it wasn’t my last.
Remember UC-Davis? Back in May, you and I killed NIH’s attempt to resurrect “Kitten Slaughterhouse 2.0”—and we saved ten kittens.
Remember the “Stokes 7”? Just a few weeks ago, you and I destroyed that lab—spared seven more felines—and annihilated the entire Veterans Affairs cat testing program!
Make no mistake about it: I am the GRIM REAPER of cat labs.
No man has ever shut down more cat tests than I have. No other animal protection group has shut down any federal feline labs in over four decades.
I am a cat’s best friend and a white coat’s worst nightmare. My strategy is brutal. And brutally effective: Stop the Money. Stop the Madness!
I am a winner above all else. But ONLY when I have enough funds to reap wins for the cats.
Taxpayer, tonight—for the very first time in my career—I think we’re going to lose.
And we’re going lose for the worst possible (and totally preventable) reason: not enough people are chipping in to help the Rochester 24.
Let’s reap this win together. Let’s do it tonight.

P.S. MIDNIGHT DEADLINE for Taxpayer: I founded WCW out of my own pocket, on my own dime. But I can’t do it alone, and we haven’t covered our budget target. Please chip in $2.40 (only ten cents per kitten!) or as much as you can before 11:59 pm tonight. Thanks—AB.
P.P.S. I know you’ve already been generous. I know you can’t always give to every campaign. And I know inflation is rough. I get it.
But pets are family. I don’t want Liberty to sell one more cat to NIH’s eyeball-harvesting lab. So please help me save the “Rochester 24” and reap another big victory. Here’s your secure link.
