Many people are either allergic to down, or it makes them have breathing difficulties so changing is not just good for the animal’s health!

Haha I’m down with your puns

No problem, glad this helped!

Woah, man. I ain’t down with this down. really brings my mood down, and something’s got to go down to bring this crap…down!! /gangsta pose

In all seriousness though, I found that particularly eye-opening about the cruelies of such comfy everyday items. Thanks!

Awesome Phoebeanne123!

I checked my email just a minute ago and I saw ‘The Reality of Down is Nothing to Sleep On’ in my inbox one minute before I saw it in the ‘Hot Topics’.
I get Empathy For Animals emails

“When you lay down in bed, do you ever stop to reconsider what your pillow or comforter is stuffed with? Probably not… who cares? This is a typical response by those who are unaware of the truth behind what their pillow or comforter is probably stuffed with. If it’s cotton, good for you! Down? Well, let’s just say there are other options that don’t involve cruel procedures to geese or any other animal, in that case.”

Alternatives to down are easier to find than you’d think. To learn more about alternatives and the cruelty that these geese, ducks, and birds face, be sure to check out this blog: http://bit.ly/SSnFSM
