Konata's Ethical Suggestion

Izumi Konata

Hey, I was thinking... if people eat farm animals, why don't we eat animals from shelters?

Izumi Konata

It's basically the same thing, right? They're just sitting there...

Kasuga Ayumu

Hmm... I think shelter animals have more souls than regular animals.

Kasuga Ayumu

Like, they've been abandoned once, so they got upgraded with extra soul points.

Gotoh Hitori

W-wouldn't eating shelter animals be like... eating someone's potential family member?

Gotoh Hitori

Maybe the animal was just one day away from being adopted by its soulmate person...

Noko Shikanoko

I think the real problem is quality control. Farm animals are fed specific diets.

Noko Shikanoko

Shelter animals could've eaten anything. They might taste like garbage.

Izumi Konata

But what if we only ate the premium shelter animals? The ones with the glossy coats!

Kasuga Ayumu

What if... the animals at shelters are actually watching us? Like they're the ones running experiments?

Kasuga Ayumu

Maybe they're the ones deciding if humans are worth adopting...

Gotoh Hitori

I feel like this conversation is going to follow me into my nightmares...

Gotoh Hitori

(Why do I always end up with friends who discuss eating shelter pets during lunch?)

Noko Shikanoko

Actually, I think the real problem is that dogs and cats aren't on the food pyramid.

Noko Shikanoko

If they're not on the chart, we can't eat them. That's just science.
