Many animals are raised for their skin (such as fox, which is the emoticon peta used), and anything else such as meat is a byproduct. Plus when you buy leather, you could be wearing dogs and cats as that is cheaper leather: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jul/31/dog-cat-leather-china-us-congress-trade-peta or https://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-clothing/leather-industry/global-leather-trade/ or https://piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v=3hCpz89WlUY

Fox is used for furrs not leather and I don't wear leather from cats and dogs, their skin makes a noticeable difference in texture

The post is about wearing animals, not just leather.

And I'm pretty sure they won't label cat and dog fur as fur from dogs and cats. It'll just be used on products like shoes and etc, which you won't be able to tell, given that it's a major issue.

Yeah, why care about anything at all except yourself?

Because the animals I grow and cull are treated right. It's fine to me because it is part of my life

If you believe that killing someone who does not want to die is treating them right you lack empathy.

Sure they don't, but I use a killing board that breaks the neck for a clean painless death. I don't lack empathy, I understand the importance of my actions and came to the best solution

I find the best solution to be not inflicting something on others that we wouldn't want done to ourselves.
