Not a day goes by at Honey’s GHQ without us receiving a referral from one of th readers and not a day goes by that we don’t mention the BAHVS, its members an our customers.We try to say a personal thank you to each of you on a regular bas these advertisements as an ideal way of ensuring that all of you know how grate
Thank you.
If there is some way we can assist or support you in turn please let us know.We will, for instance, happily provide free advice to your clients, send you sample food, offer you copies of our book and donate to any good causes that you believe to be important.
As you may be aware, giving is a strong element of our ethos.We have never turned a good cause away empty handed and between free hampers, free books and cash donations we are currently helping to raise between £30,000 and £40,000 a year. Hardly a fortune, but for a small company a significant sum.
We are now dividing our cash donations between the World Land Trust (of which Jonathan is a trustee) and Compassion inWorld Farming (CIWF).We spent a long time researching the latter organisation.What decided us in its favour is the fact that half its board are vegetarian or vegan.We also like their approach of trying to change the farm industry from within.Yes, it is vital for organisations like PETA to act as sticks, but it is no less vital for organisations like CIWF to act as carrots.
Incidentally, we serve a large number of vegetarian
and vegan customers and we are frequently asked how we can be in the business of killing animals given our own ethical beliefs. If it were not for dogs, cats and
all the other types of domesticated animal the vast majority of people living in developed nations would have no contact with any species other than their fellow
human beings. Pets provide the last re with the wild and with nature.They off solace.They bring out the best in peopl to regulate society.There’s no knowing consequences there would be without t
Clearly, domesticated animals deserve biologically appropriate diet. In the cas cats this means raw meat and bone. As impracticable for them to catch their o must be given to them. Under these cir crucial thing is to ensure that the anim to provide this food lead the best possi endure the least painful deaths.This is free range, wild and/or organic ingredie And why we visit the abattoirs where o slaughtered.
There are many other things we believe from trying to minimise the impact we environment to ensuring that we run a family-friendly business.
If you have any questions about our fo ethics please don’t hesitate to get in tou meantime, thank you again for your su
