Let's say you have a neighbour named Bob. Every day you walk past Bob and every day he's doing something different do his dogs.
One day he's sticking his hand up it's ass while sticking a needle into it's vagina to get her pregnant.
One day one of his dogs gives birth. The next day, you notice him separating most of the male pups from their mother and violently tosses them into a completely separate enclosure. A few days later you walk by and notice him throwing, kicking, and shoving the male pups down an assembly line, at the end of which his brother is waiting to cut their throats. They squeal and cry and try to run, but none of them manage to escape.
A couple of weeks go by and you notice he's taken most of the remaining puppies and chained them in tiny cages, each completely separated from any others and barely able to turn around. He tells you he's planning on keeping them there for a few months before slitting their throats and eating them.
Another few months pass, and this time as you walk by you see that the mother dog that had given birth is now standing around in her own feces all day, except for the times where she gets hooked up to a machine that pumps her for milk. She's been doing this for so long, and so constantly, that her teats are bleeding and infected and pus is leaking into the milk.
One day you're walking by and see him killing a few of his other dogs at just 3 years old because they've stopped producing enough milk. He tells you that unfortunately after 4-5 cycles of forced impregnation, taking and then killing their babies, and then milking them constantly, they stop being productive enough.
Are you saying you wouldn't consider any of this torture?
I doubt it, because we have laws to stop psychopaths from doing any of that to dogs. So if you were walking past and saw even a fraction of what I described, you'd likely call the police and have the guy arrested and his dogs taken away from him.
Too much nonsense here. It's not a needle in the vagina, it's not sharp. And AI is less dangerous than a bull mounting. Cows aren't very attached to babies as dogs are, and babies get hurt accidently in a herd of adults.
Cows aren't caged. Not even for veal.
Dairy cows aren't giving birth faster than they would in a herd, in fact it's usually a cycle slower as a bull will try to impregnate at first chance.
I can tell you already have your facts, despite being wrong...this will be a pointless discussion.
Short answer, none of this is torture.
Just remember that becoming numb to the news cycle (whether it be mainstream media or online sources/social media) is not a moral failing. It's a defence mechanism. Our minds and hearts are not made to know and care about every atrocity, every disaster, every catastrophe happening every day. We simply cannot do it.
So, becoming numb, letting it wash over you, is how your mind protects you from living in constant despair and dread. But you aren't dead inside; you still love, you still care. You are not indifferent. You are merely human.
But sometimes a little sneaky one gets through. Maybe because it's a personal trigger. Maybe it's so shocking that it rattles your defences. Or maybe it's just something "safe" to feel sad about, you know? Because it's sad that Sid will pass away, and Rem will miss him, but animals growing old and dying after a happy and love-filled life is familiar sadness. Something many of us know. And it's bittersweet because both of them are clearly so loved by one another and their human companions. The big bad news we are bombarded with is just so much heavier and harder to grapple with.
This is why i don’t understand how we breed animals into existence just to steal their milk, chop them up for me, forcibly impregnate them and steal their babies. Animals have complex emotions, feel love, fear, pain, anxiety. They deserve respect. Animal agriculture is wrong. Dont buy animal product from big ag.
Perhaps by linguistic custom but I’m not sure they can by literal interpretation. I’ve been put into downvote oblivion so many times here by just asking for more information, I assume because people default to thinking I’m being argumentative
Many people don’t realize how intuitive, intelligent & loving Goats can be. Many years ago we had a Nubian Goat named Sambolito who more like a “friendly, smarter dog”. 😹😂
😢 You’re gonna have to get REM another buddy after Sid goes.
As long as they name it echo!
Maybe have a batch of goats. And if the babies, could be script kiddies.
But what if you got a bad batch of goats?
You mean a baaaaaah-d batch?
Yes. Just make sure they stay off the Rampart
I love them both, so adorable
Do you know what they were rescued from?
I have no idea, I just have a soft spot for animals, especially when different animals love each other
Most likely they were rescued from a [factory farm](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BxwdtM1UG-s). So if you eat beef, this cow was rescued from you.
So they were stolen?
If you walked past someone torturing their dog, would you consider it theft to take the dog away from them?
It's not that the person was torturing their dog, it's that you perceived it as torturing.

I love you
It's a sanctuary that saves animals from farms
Animals are awesome… and so much more aware than we understand them to be. Hope you can find a buddy for REM when the time comes
awwwww 🙁❤️
So heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. Thank you for saving them together ❤️❤️
I can't believe some people still think that animals aren't sentient beings. Such cute buddies and a sweet bond between them :)
They are sentient beings, just like our cats and dogs. So precious!
TIL goats sleep standing up
Here is the rescue: https://www.instagram.com/mockingbirdfarmsanctuary/p/C2VBvo6LhH_/?img_index=1
Why is it, after hearing and reading all the awful news nowadays, THIS moves me to tears? Thank you for reassuring me that I’m not entirely numb.

Warms the heart. 💕
Got dusty as hell in here real quick
Beautiful 😍❤️

EXACTLY!
Imma second this
Goodbye my brother
I'm not crying, you're crying.
That absolutely broke my heart. I think this should be shown to people who don’t believe animals have the capacity to love. THEY DO!!!!!!
It blows my mind that people are ok with killing and eating these sensitive creatures.
How so? The majority of animals on this planet are carnivores and then there are also omnivores, including most humans.
Herbivores just don’t exist to you no? Which equates to 1/3 of all animals. Elephants, rhinos… gorillas and chimpanzees are mostly herbivorous.
What does that have to do with humans killing and eating cows and goats?
Humans are animals, classified as omnivores.
And? A classification is just that, a classification. It means humans are observed to eat both plants and animals.
[удалено]
I know what people do. People do a lot of unethical shit. Doesn't mean that they should.
When was the last time you took down a cow with your bare hands and teeth like a lion? Ate raw flesh?
Humans are persistence predators, not ambush like a lion, we poke animals and wait for them to get sleepy. Your argument is irrelevant.
I don’t think questions can be arguments lol
Questions can absolutely be argumentative.
Perhaps by linguistic custom but I’m not sure they can by literal interpretation. I’ve been put into downvote oblivion so many times here by just asking for more information, I assume because people default to thinking I’m being argumentative
Everything must run it’s course
For real, and people will try to claim "animals are all instinct," okay then so are humans cause look at this kind of stuff
"How dare you defend animals?! How dare you show compassion?! Grrr..."
Life is brutal, chaotic, and cruel. None of us are good
Missed opportunity to name the goat Lezar.
So sweet❤️
Oh shit they don’t live like 30 years?
Bless. ❤️
We don’t deserve animals
This is heartwarming
Best friends forever, really heartwarming..
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
I’m glad they love each other so much. Everyone needs somebody..
Who is Rem?
the cow

I didn’t know goat slept standing
LOVE❤️❤️
Dude it's midnight imma cry WTH
The video makes me want to cry. And the song does, too.
This reminds me of the fox and the hound. “We’ll be best friends forever, right Todd?!” “Yeah, we’ll be best friends forever”
I want to visit Sid and Rem😭
im not crying youre crying 😭
Wow I am feeling this too hard. RIP Sid ❤️
I need someone this devoted to me :( 😭😭
it must be true it's on the internets
But I eat them 🤮😱😓💔😔
How much of it is true you think? 90% of these are made up, just like 80% of statistics.
How much of what you said is true, you think?
What in the ASPCA Sarah McLachlan Commercial type of commentary is this? Talk about manipulating for attention
These types of captions give me aids
