This is a hard government deadline. NIH destroyed 28 cats in Louisville. Now, it may renew another payout to the lab. Read below to stop them or unsubscribe.
 

Brace yourself, Taxpayer.

Our government destroyed an entire colony of cats at the University of Louisville.

These cats were waterboarded. The felines were forced to swallow balloons. 28 corpses.

In the next 72 hours, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke—a major NIH grant-maker—may ram through more funding to this laboratory.

This is a hard government deadline. Please help!

Spare 28 cats

Emergency Deadline: Follow this secure link to chip in $2.80 (only ten cents per cat!) to spare 28 more cats, support all our life-saving work, and cut NIH’s balloon-swallowing and waterboarding tests.

Taxpayer, I personally uncovered this heinous experiment. And I’ve never stopped thinking about these 28 felines.

These are the most disturbing veterinary records I’ve ever read.

Lab cats purring unknowingly in the face of death.

Sometimes purring so loudly that their lungs can’t even be checked by the sadistic white coats in Louisville.

Unless we take immediate action, here’s what may happen again:

  • SPINAL CORD REMOVED: They severed a kitty’s spinal cord (“hemisection”).
  • BALLOON-SWALLOWING: An inflatable balloon was shoved down his throat and filled with air. This technique makes the feline swallow on demand—whenever his captor pleases.
  • WATERBOARDING: You read that correctly. The cat was forced to swallow water repeatedly as it’s shoved down his mouth and throat.
  • RESTRAINED IN A VISE: A stereotaxic device prevents resistance. And, using a 60-year-old technique, electrodes were implanted into his spine.
  • LONG-TERM ABUSE: Some of the kittens were tortured for 1,000 days!
  • YOUR TAX BILL: about $1.7 million.

EMERGENCY DEADLINE >>

Taxpayer, the NIH claims this is life-saving research.

Their big, “groundbreaking” discovery? That respiration changes following a spinal cord injury.

As if we didn’t know that already!

Adding insult to injury, NIH admits it has already spent $16.8 million on at least three other grants like this. It’s the worst kind of government WASTE!

Here’s the real problem: NIH’s funding deadline is 11:59pm on Saturday.

The quickest and most effective way to end any taxpayer-funded animal experiment is to stop the funding BEFORE it’s renewed. That’s our winning strategy.

Thanks to your donations, White Coat Waste has worked wonders for our feline friends:

  • Shut Down NIH’s lethal tests at UC-Davis—and retired all cats from the lab’s breeding colony.
  • De-funded NIH and Putin’s $770,000 kitten de-braining experiments. (And every other animal test in Russia).
  • Annihilated USDA's $22 million "Kitten Slaughterhouse"—the largest cat lab in the entire federal government.
  • Stopped the Dept. of Veterans Affairs’ (VA) $50,000 cat mutilation tests in Cleveland—and saved the “Stokes 7.”
  • Ended the VA’s $1.3 million cat abuse in Louisville—they severed spines and forced disabled felines to run on treadmills and obstacle courses.

Taxpayer, no other animal protection group has shut down a single federal cat lab in at least forty years!

11/30 Deadline
STOP PAYOUT #R01NS110169 >>

Now, here’s the key: this balloon-swallowing and waterboarding lab is the very same lab where crippled cats were abused on treadmills and obstacle courses in Louisville.

Taxpayer, that’s why I know we can finish off these experiments now… we know how to beat these guys!

We’ve filed multiple Freedom of Information Act requests. We’re running hard-hitting advertisements to mobilize pet owners, taxpayers, and cat lovers.

And unlike other organizations, we have close ties to both Democratic and Republican lawmakers—and the brand new Dept. of Government Efficiency (DOGE)!

Unfortunately, we’re going to need even more help to stop NIH’s kitten abuse in the next 72 hours. We’re NOT budgeted for this campaign.

So Taxpayer, please chip in $2.80 (only ten cents per cat) to spare 28 more lives, support all our life-saving work, and finish off NIH’s balloon-swallowing and waterboarding tests.

Please send help,

P.S. Hard Government Deadline: No cat deserves waterboarding. No feline should be forced to swallow balloons. That’s why I’m working overtime to make sure it never happens again. Here’s your secure link to help.—Thx, Claudia

P.P.S. Taxpayer, a big-hearted supporter just stepped up. If you commit to a monthly gift (even just $2.80/month) before the deadline, she’ll MULTIPLY by FIVE whatever amount you send right now—that’s 5x the impact—and we’ll get it in time for our rapid response effort!

Taxpayers shouldn't be forced to pay $20 billion+ for wasteful government animal experiments.
