Re: Eating animals/rant/idk

No, no you are not. Killing and eating animals that were raised as pets is messed up, and what that farm store did to you is disgusting.
I do think that you should tell everyone you possibly can exactly what they promised and what they did, because there's a non-zero chance that someone else will end up with a rooster instead of a hen, go "Oh look, these nice people will take this rooster off my hands and not eat him," and things will go the same way from there. If you don't feel up to that fight, though, fair enough.

This. Speaking as someone who's eaten chicken almost daily for years:

Keeping roosters as pets isn't even that strange in my experience. That "shelter" betrayed anon in a revolting way.

Yeah, if the shelter DELIBERATELY MISLED you, and lied about the rooster's fate, that is shitty as hell. I agree, you should slather them with scathing reviews, do whatever you have to do to get the word out about this.

On one hand, I do think once you surrender ownership of an animal, you can't really have a say in what happens to them. And killing any pet for any reason is a reality in many shelters. But it sounds like they lied to OP about slaughtering the animal and about their intentions. And while I don't think we should rank some animals as more valuable than others, an animal that has been socialized as a pet does feel wrong to just randomly choose for a slaughter demonstration.
