Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20090414/ten-miley-shows-compassion-for-chickens-5f8abb3.html The press are making a big deal out of her "compassion" but I'm wondering if she has anywhere to house the "lucky" chicken, if she knows they shouldn't be kept alone, if she has any idea what she's doing . And what does it mean "she packed up a few of the others to be sent home to their mother"? Whose mother? Not the chickens' presumably . Is it a misprint and it's "her" mother ? Never heard of her (although I know who her dad is!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Sounds like the chickens' mother.......for heaven's sake.......and I definitely, 100%, completely and utterly know who she is......I have a 9 year old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I think PETA could have found someone more worthy, surely? Maybe the chicken is living (and pooing) in the lap of luxury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 The story is a bit 'schmaltzy' isn't it - her smile is as big as her compassion Poor lonely chicken, I hope someone tells her they need company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 It never ceases to amaze me what is classed as 'news' these days PETA should have known better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 PETA should have known better That's what I thought . Will loads of "animal lovers" now start thinking it's OK to "rescue" single chickens ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I agree Redwing! do PETA know anything about the best welfare of chickens? What were they doing presenting an award!!! *sorry off to moan at a wall or something* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Before she is lynched anymore, she lives on a farm in Nashville, with animals. Her other home is LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizzle Knit Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 PETA recently requested that the Pet Shop Boys rename themselves "Animal Rescue Centre Boys" or some such; and would also like to rename fish "sea-kittens" to make them sound cute and cuddly and less desirably edible. I don't have a lot of respect for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Before she is lynched anymore, she lives on a farm in Nashville, with animals. Her other home is LA. I suppose that's something . I hope she has more chickens amongst those animals (and she's read up on introducing a lone chicken on the forum ).
