“It is insulting to suggest that retired, elderly individuals can be entertained by watching miserable birds spend their entire lives unable to follow their instincts. Cages deny birds all that is natural and important to them—including room to fly, fresh air, and enough water to bathe in.”

Cloris Leachman‘s funny outtakes from her PSA on spaying and neutering cats and dogs is almost as funny as the actual commercial.

Leachman thinks school children should be taught how to interact with animals as part of the curriculum.

“I think we should teach in our schools how to behave with animals, how to treat them,” the actress says in the video.

If there are biology classes in junior high that want kids to cut up a dead frog, why not teach them how to care for, interact and evaluate behaviors of common pets like cats and dogs and even farm animals?

Cloris Leachman has recorded a hilarious PSA about spaying and neutering pets for PETA.

Leachman fumbles with opening a condom package, which may have been a little easier if she had claws like a cat. Similarly, the unwanted pet population could be lower if cats knew how to use condoms.

“Condoms come in handy when you want to have some fun but you don’t want to get pregnant. Unfortunately, millions need this protection..Can’t even get the damn things out of the package…I’m talking about cats and dogs.”
