A four day old baby rat next to a cigarette. I took this one on impulse when a smoker friend visited one day. This is how tiny and helpless a laboratory rat begins its life, born into a cruel environment. Human babies are so different to rat infants, yet our drugs are sold based on tests carried out on other species. The only times human children are born like this rat is when the drugs tested on animals fail. When was the last time you saw a hairless human infant born with their eyes and ears sealed shut? Only when vivisection proves wrong yet again!

My friend Shane was short of accommodation for a rat and her young he obtained, so he set up the old television for them until larger housing was found. Shane is a man of great inventions.
My sister Margaret and Socrates.
My rabbits, Leonora - frount, and Violet -back. Leonora was taken from the RSPCA, where I worked as a volunteer. She was covered in oil after being dumped at a mechanic's garage.
