After buying two Savannah kittens<\/a>, Justin Bieber was criticized by PeTA<\/a>, who predictably came at him with one of their very favorite false choices: if you don’t get your pet from a shelter,\u00a0you don’t care about animals<\/em>!<\/p>\n

When you hiss upon a star…<\/center><\/p><\/div>\n

Oh my. The claws are out! But refreshingly, instead of grovelling, vaguely promising to “do better” in the future, and\/or donating money to PeTA, Bieber told them to go suck it<\/a>. Hey, now that’s the spirit! Considering the number of animals PeTA’s “shelter” has killed, and their views on pet ownership (spoiler: people shouldn’t have pets, period), they really don’t have the moral authority to lecture anybody on pet ownership or the requirements one must meet to “care about animals.”<\/p>\n

Bieber went on:<\/p>\n

“Every pet we get must be a rescue? I believe in adopting rescues but also think there are preferences and that\u2019s what breeders are for.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While that likely won’t be good enough for PeTA, it echoes what approximately 95% of the world believes. Would we have phrased it exactly as such? No — but we’ll take it!<\/p>\n

Here are the scandalous kittens, by the way:<\/p>\n
