Katy at Learner Vegan

I think it may be time for me to deactivate Twitter for a little while. I will still be on other social at LearnerVegan. I just find it so negative, moaning and demoralising at the moment. Only saying so nobody wonders if Ive dropped off the face of the earth 😆

The best feeding advice I heard from a paediatrician! instagram.com/reel/CtbbRd0vt… #veganfamily #veganmom

The US Supreme Court just sided with animals over Big Ag! Let's use this victory for kindness to call on governments everywhere to take on factory farms: share.eko.org/805553392t?ref…

#ad Being vegan doesn’t mean you have to miss out on fish Fridays. With the new @coopuk fish, chips & mushy peas from their GRO range, it’s easy to enjoy a traditional chippy tea while you do #veganuary 🌱🚫🐟 #PlantBased #VeganUK #VeganCommunity

#ad Doing Dry January or simply cutting back? Then @coopuk have you covered with their new range of alcohol free & low alcohol options - including this fabulous alcohol free vegan gin for just £9 a bottle! Cheers!🍸 #ItsWhatWeDo #DryJanuary #SoberLife #Veganuary #AlcoholFree

Cauliflowers have loads of leaves and stems. Do you use them? I've found shredding them in the food processor gives me a lot more ways to use them up. thriftylesley.com/cauliflower-le… #BudgetMeals #CheapFood #Vegetarian

@Supersoniclady3 Ahh thank you! Just saw this!

Ok so @RealKombuchaUK haven’t paid me and are now not responding to my emails. (A thread) Their accounts department has apparently done payroll TWICE but still NOT paid me for work I did. Please RT 🙏🏻 #MyFeeIsntFree

I just bought "Organic Barleygrass Juice Powder 125g" from Buy Whole Foods Online. buywholefoodsonline.co.uk/organic-barley…

Just posted a photo @ London, United Kingdom instagram.com/p/CJMXcAWpeuS/…

I’ve just signed @Animal_Equality's petition urging @Tesco to end some of the worst abuses in its chicken supply chain. Will you? #TescoEveryLittleHurts animalequality.org.uk/act/tesco

I'll be interviewing the wonderful Karena Burgess LIVE on Instagram today at 3pm UK / 9am CST. She is an expert in gut health and digestion, with an amazing story of how she came off FIFTEEN prescription meds. Come and join us live and ask questions! IG name: @ LearnerVegan

@Franc56457690 @HelenO1964 @tlander93 @Lushlabs I agree. We did have a rescue that unfortunately attacked my husband repeatedly as it had issues with males. Most likely due to past mistreatment! We had to rehome to a female only which was very sad.

@LearnerVegan @HelenO1964 @tlander93 @Lushlabs Don’t get me wrong, l think rehoming a dog is a wonderful thing, and l know several cases that have been very successful, but it isn’t right for everyone.

Well what a day. After 12 hours of huffing Rosie needed C-Section which resulted in 11 wriggle monsters !!! Mum and pups are doing fab. Still early days .

@TheWordOfErynn My mistake- I took the information off the website which said 2017 2019 and now - maybe I interpreted incorrectly. Have a good evening.

@LearnerVegan Second and final litter, she has two girls 👍💗 I know the family well and I trust their ethics.

Love it when people reply to you and then immediately block you. No such thing as responsible breeding of dogs while there are dogs in rescues being euthanised. Stop using animals for profit. #lushlabs #vegan #crueltyfree

@TheWordOfErynn I don’t of course. I appreciate the need for assistance dogs. Even in my own extended family. Also to add it isn’t a one off breed. It’s at least the third litter this dog has had since 2017. But I’m going to sign off as I don’t have more to add without repeating. Best wishes!

@LearnerVegan Nor do I, so on that we agree. I just don't think a blanket hatred for ALL dog breeding is appropriate.

@TheWordOfErynn We’ll just have to disagree. I don’t believe in using animals for profit.

@LearnerVegan Without responsible breeders there could be no Guide dogs or assistance dogs though, so it is valid. Especially as the breeder you criticise has bred a one off litter of puppies that will be doing good in the world. My autistic nephew will be helped by one of her puppies.

@TheWordOfErynn There are exceptional circumstances to most situations. The ‘what if, what about’ argument isn’t valid. If everybody who COULD rescue, did, instead of buying from breeders, there would be less demand and so less breeders. Also less healthy dogs being euthanised which is good.

@LearnerVegan What about Guide dogs / Canine partners / emotional therapy dogs? Please consider that not everything is black and white. The puppies you are referring to actually go to homes to do a lot of good, home where a rescue dog isn't suitable. If dogs were only bred responsibly >

@Franc56457690 @HelenO1964 @tlander93 @Lushlabs I do have two children. And our experiences obviously differ.

@LearnerVegan @HelenO1964 @tlander93 @Lushlabs Almost all rescue dogs l’ve looked at are not suitable for rehoming with young children. I don’t know if you have children living with you, but their safety mustalways come first.

@LindsayGalvin @Lushlabs There are exceptional circumstances to most situations. If everybody who COULD rescue, did, instead of buying from breeders, there would be less demand and so less breeders. Also less healthy dogs being euthanised. I never questioned if breeders care for their dogs.

@LearnerVegan @Lushlabs Do you know anything about Lush Labs? Not every family can have a rescue dog. Young children, people with additional support needs and families with other animals need a puppy and this is an ethical breeder who considers welfare above everything else.
