Companies That Still Do Experimental Tests On Animals   

Pye, thank you so much for this list! It sure is ataggering, I guess my question is what companies should we support? I'm printing this list as I speak and I'm going to pass it along on and offline to all my fellow animal loving friends and relatives. This is an eye-opener that I didn't want to see! Thanks again.

"Procter & Gamble Co. (Clairol, Cover Girl, Crest, Gillette, Giorgio, Iams, Max
Factor, Physique, Tide),


S.C. Johnson (Drano, Edge, Fantastik, Glade, OFF!, Oust, Pledge, Scrubbing
Bubbles, Shout, Skintimate, Windex, Ziploc)"

They are two of the biggest testers world-wide.

I buy my shampoos/conditioners from a health supply store in town. It specifically states on the bottle "not tested on animals."

Same thing with Clinique. "Not tested on animals"

I admire you for taking a stand on this far-reaching issue, pyewacket, but I really don't believe that the ordinary individual's voice is going to be heard or considered, as is the case with so many issues. I think it is more than sad that the society we live in would condone these practices, but the honest truth is that the majority of people are too wrapped up in their day-to-day existences and don't give a crap about anything else. Unfortunately, the ones who do care(like yourself), find it nearly impossible for their voices to be heard.

It's surprising that so many huge companies still do. There are so many it's hard to not buy from all of them.

Oh my gosh!!!! Looks like the list of experimenters is longer than non-experimenters would be. That makes me sick, I buy alot of those products, now I'll have to search high and low, just to find someone who doesn't. Can you believe this. Why would so many places be so freaking evil? I guess I need to start making my own deodorant and stuff. If you want a laugh, check out my last discussion. I bet you haven't got one of theses. lol

wow what a list and why would they need to do it. Really dont make much since to test paper products on animals and alot of the other stuff either this is getting sicking.

Ohhh Pye, thanks dear for providing yet another klist of companies using animals. Why oh why, and I am really considering to stop buying stuff from most of these if I can find a good supplier that doesnt do what these companies are doing ;/

It is awful! I had no idea it was that many. I didn't even think it was even close to that! WOW. That's terrible! I don't think ANY living being should be used for any sort of testing and that includes the disgusting little mice. All animals have feelings just as we humans do, they just can't speak as we do. However I bet they scream when in pain or in any type of discomfort because they're living beings. How cruel can one be? I'll never understand. I would like to turn the tables and have the tests on humans who think it's ok just to show how it feels to have these things done to them.

I remember years ago I was part of the massive campaign to end testing on animals for cosmetics etc and I really thought there had been a breakthrough.
Sadly though looking at your long list, this is not so.

I find it very sad that Body Shop who were so ethical went and sold their company to L'Oreal, this goes against everything Anita Roddick stood for. I just hope they do not think they can go back to experimenting on these products.

Animals do not need to have these disgusting and painful experiments performed on them. It really makes me sick and I always read the label on any product to ensure it has not been tested on animals. I am aware that there are flaws though, as some of the ingredients they add to a product could have been tested on animals beforehand, so I am never 100% sure if it is animal testing free.

Thanks for posting this, it is worthh us knowing as so many of us are still unaware that this goes on to such an extent.

The list is staggering and is disgusting. I am going to go home today and throw out a whole bunch of stuff then tomorrow I plan to spend time writing letters to the companies whose products I used to use. I was really shocked to see pet product makers on the list. Do companies think we won't notice? I am glad you have opened my eyes. I try to avoid buying products that test on animals but sometimes I don't read the label and I think I should be more vigilant. My hubby insists on Colgate but I am afraid that his heart is about to be broken because the last tube of that stuff fell in the toilet this morning and now I am going to replace it with a animal friendly product. The only way they will wake up is if we boycott the products and write letters. I think the internet is a great way for the world to find out this type of info and helps to enlighten people so we have the chance to make a difference.
