it says you litter trained a seakitten?
i sent them an email. here it is. you guys are gonna crack up at the sig.
ok here goes.
my name is aj. im 13 yrs old.
heres my opinion: the sea kitten campaign is ridiculous. i fish and i keep fish and i believe that if you provide adequate environments, giving enough room to simulate natural environments it is fine. keeping fish in bowls or plastic nano tanks is, i agree, disgusting, but in the wild, fish do not roam randomly. they haunt a specific territory for days. i dont believe that fish feel pain in the mouth region (other than that i believe they do, so people who scale fish alive, i really hate that practice.) i have my reasons for believing this, but im sure you guys dont want to field that minefield.
besides, i believe that fish, being almost as intelligent as humans, are proud creatures, and as a fish lover and someone who is quick to speak up against practices that hurt/abuse fish, i dont think that, if they could read, they would be very happy about being portrayed as cartoon creatures wearing whiskers and cat masks. in fact, they would find it degrating. i know i would.
so i hope im not on the list of people you can get on the bandwagon. i mean, im all for wiping out animal abuse, but at some point it gets to be too much.

UPDATE: Whoops i sent it to their catalog. And the title was "Youre kidding, right"

me thinks that fishing isnt their only issue. check this out from their Sea Kittens Campaign.
"A University of Edinburgh study found that sea kittens can retain information that they learned up to 11 months earlier, which makes them cuter and smarter than the president of the United States! "

about peta against fishkeeping...dont they know that fish dont roam aimlessly, they have territories! in florida i either hooked/cut leader on a Dogtooth Snapper, a bright yellow jighead, or i lost it and the Snapper ate it off the bottom, but I saw on 3 different days a Dogtooth Snapper swimming around with a jighead hooked into his mouth. it shouldve rusted out by now. but like in the above post, PETA has no idea what the heck theyre doing!! they dont know waht theyre protesting. good thing, terrorists who run around like headless chickens (oops sorry PETA!!) are better that smart ones...PETA is like a headless Chicken (Oops!!)
