UNIV of VIRGINIA KEEP CATS OUT OF PEDIATRICS LABS

UNIV of VIRGINIA KEEP CATS OUT OF PEDIATRICS LABS

The Issue

SENSELESS CRUELTY TO CATS: Why drive plastic tubes down cats' throats, or practice any medical drills on them, given accessibility to high-fidelity simulators? Ask University of Virginia to use its sophisticated medical simulation facility only for pediatric residency labs. With so many animal-free tools, it is cruel to reduce any life to isolation, pain and death.
