Octomom Mocks Image in PETA Ad Campaign

By Bryan Alexander Posted Mar 24th 2010 11:08PM

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has struck advertising gold!

The organization has negotiated a deal with "Octomom" Nadya Suleman that allows them to post a PETA sign in her front yard advocating for pet owners to spay or neuter their animals.

"Don't let your dog or cat become an 'octomom,'" the ad warns. The image is of a cat splayed out on the floor feeding a brood of hungry kittens.

The deal could not have come at a better time for the mother of fourteen. Suleman is currently at risk of losing her La Habra, Calif., home, as its owner wants to start foreclosure proceedings.

In a letter from PETA obtained by the Orange County Register, the organization promised it would make their relationship worthwhile.

"In light of recent reports that you may be facing foreclosure on your home, we'd like to offer to bolster your finances by paying to place an ad (enclosed) on your front lawn," the letter reads. "When you gave birth to octuplets to bring your total number of children to 14, you grabbed headlines and got the world talking about your controversial decision. Now will you help turn some of that attention to another important matter -- the dog and cat overpopulation crisis?"

"Taking us up on our offer is a win-win situation: It would help you and your children to keep your home and also reduce the number of homeless dogs and cats."

I find it terrible to even equate humans to animals. These are terrible, dark times.

ZING Jayme....what a great point

By Shari

Please Stop enabling this train wreck. Those poor children will have to live with this over their head for the rest of their lives. How degrading is that. The fact that she is octomom is degrading enough to her children. Wait until they are old enough to understand her destructive behavior. How many more tax dollars will be need for pycho therapy for these children.

OK PETA,,,you have now pissed me off...no more contributions from me and I'm going to go run over a squirrel.

Perhaps someone should have spayed the Octomom a few years ago!

By valeskas

She still needs to be spayed, because she talked about having more children later on.

By Nati

!!LMAO!! That was a GOOD ONE luv2flirtamswf34! On a more serious note though, I totally agree with Sheri as well. It's not fair and *degrading* to her children who are already unfortunate enough to have her as their Mommy Dearest. It's benefiting PETA and Octomom but what effect is it going to have on her children once they've grown up and understand all these jokes?

By really???

Chris,
I think what fisher MAN is trying to say is that humans have so many problems yet animals (yes, there is a distinction in that Bible you referred to) often get priority over humans. If you're so enlightened regarding everyone's rights, why be hateful? Oh, and I will be going to read my Bible so thanks...

It's a dayuuuum shame that PETA would equate this woman to an animal. How fuggN dare they use this woman while at her lowest point to promote their bullsh*t. She's being evicted and their way of helping is to have her put a poster of a cat and his litter on her lawn. FuggN PATHETIC. I don't condone violence but somebody at PETA needs to be hit over the head

By Anon

You're right. Even animals have more self-control and self-awareness than she does.

By don

They should fix her and then we really should feed the dogs and cats to the homeless. The shelters could make a lot of soup from them.

PEATA just gasses them anyway.

soup de puppy

Is this supposed to be funny?

By susan

@anon, it's true, peta euthanizes more dogs and cats than ANY other "shelter" i'm in norfolk, i KNOW!

By jack

Hey does this mean that she won't be doing the porn movie? I realy wanted to see her in a gang bang seen.

By amber

Though I often disagree with PETA, I always respectfully thought they were sincere about their views. Making a deal with that woman only shows that nobody has ideals anymore.

By Feral

I think PETA is a douche for doing that, to get a point across they mock the poor woman, yea she was a bit crazy for having all those kids cause damn, a single mother raising 14 kids? its gotta be hell and she has gotta be desperate for money to pay all the bills, along with the expenses for the babies.

By tamabu1

Why do you think she had all those babies...not because she loves kids...she loves money. Give me a break...you are an idiot for having sympathy for her.
