Even Cat Treats Are Affected

[TheShellBeach]

The man next door gave us these treats for our cats.
I couldn't believe the LGBT supportive message on the label.
So that's another thing for me to boycott.

thanks for posting - I just needed the laugh today. Seriously, cat treats!!

Perhaps I’m missing something, but why would you boycott a company that sponsors a charity offering the support detailed in this screenshot? What negative impact does it have on you personally?

LGB WITHOUT THE T

Of course, distributing lube sachets to the masses is what every cat owner cares about.

I’d have a problem with the first one - affirmative support is often not in that person’s best interest (see feedback from detransitioners). Good quality support isn’t the same as cheerleading.

Wow that's extreme on cat food?!

The work that's on that list seems beyond reproach, from a quick perusal. Most people on these boards wouldn't have a problem with those initiatives. Is that all they do?

My local garden centre had a cardboard stand all LGBT pride colours a few months ago for Dreamies. So it's not that new.

You think that's bad...

Look at what the vet has done to my very boy-sexed and boy-identifying cat.

he's insisting on being called Tiffany now instead of Eric.

£600!!!! Vet Bill for what? a bloody pink bandage!

😂😂😂 Darlington

One would have thought that a cat charity might have been more appropriate.

I haven't bought Dreamies in years since they started this shit. I don't trust any T 'charity' to do right by children.

So glad they've been handing out lube. I always worry about those less fortunate than myself, those who might not be able to have a quick one up the bum because they couldn't afford to buy their own lube.

I hope foodbanks take heed and start giving out individual lube sachets. This is the real struggle we face now. I might buy a cat just so I can help those poor chaps get it on in comfort without having to spend their wages.

Sorry what's the connection between the affirmation model and free lube and cats?

Actually don't answer that. I don't wanna know.

Why do the cats of Manchester get free lube, but cats in Darlington just get...well erm...hang on...what does a cat need lube for?

And why were they are they handing it out just to cats in Manchester? Do they have extremely strange pussies there or something?!?

And I keep forgetting to go and change my username back.

@IGatekeepfortheTravelodgeDarlington I need reading glasses, it took me a few alarming seconds to figure out what that was a picture of!

Hope he's she's better soon, tell him her clothes have nothing to do with his her sex.

Some people can’t afford lube or condoms but might still be having sex. Often, if they are vulnerable, that sex might be risky sex. What’s the issue with a dedicated charity supplying them with lube, which might reduce their risk of sustaining an injury during sex, or contracting an infection?

My cat is proudly allergic to Dreamies and the LGBT Foundation.

Lube is essential for safe anal sex, between 2 males or a male and female. When no lube is available, many choose to improvise with a substitute that can break down the integrity of the condom and put both at risk. It's perfectly acceptable and reasonable to give lube with condoms to all sexes and sexualities.

Your post comes across as sneery and homophobic tbh.

As for the LGBT foundation, it's based in Manchester and favours Gender ID over biological sex. They have a They/Him running a women's session on cervix health that is welcoming of trans women to attend.

I have no idea what connection they have to to Cats or Dreamies, that's a just bizarre link-up.

It's rough up north.

😂

If you look carefully you can find some packets without the rainbow. I buy those ones, regardless of the flavour (sorry cats!)

I saw those in our local pet shop and wondered if I'd ever seen a more tenuous bandwagon leap of association than cat treats and pride.

@IcakethereforeIam The cat keeps looking at as if to say what the fuck? Where is my leg? So not surprised it took you a while!

Right I've got some gatekeeping to do.

There's a man roaming the halls. He's pissed as a fart, in a sparkly wig muddy dress torn tights and high heels, but he's broken one of the heels off. He keeps screaming about bigoted women on mumsnet. I suspect you know him. He's got Electic Light Orchestra going in his room.

A member of Travelodge Darlington Staffs job is never done.

The Dreamies i get, but how exactly did you determine the other?. Does he vomit fur balls when rainbows/tubes of lube appear? Or is it more nuanced?

Especially in the Travelodge Darlington

I see a lot of trampling over boundaries and safeguarding, but can't see a link with cats.
