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."Filed under: Good News - Highbrow Celebrities - Hottest Stories PRINTEmail This PopStewGetty Images MUST READ: Jennifer Lopez Opens Up About Her Weight -- Amy Grindhouse SEXY: The Hottest Stars in Bikinis -- Fox News FUN: Top 10 American Idol Songs -- AOL Radio Blog HOTTEST Celebrity Couples Ever -- Zimbio PICS: Is This Justin Bieber's Girlfriend? -- JSYK Paris Hilton Opens Up About Her Breakup -- ICYDK You Won't Believe What Tiger's #1 Mistress is Up to Now -- Newser

ReplyWednesday 24 MarchBy JaymeR1013Highest Rank Vote downVote upReport thishumans ARE animals.
Wednesday 24 MarchBy animalloverHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport thisZING Jayme....what a great point
Thursday 25 MarchBy Shari Vote downVote upReport thisPlease 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.
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy OMGHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport thisOK PETA,,,you have now pissed me off...no more contributions from me and I'm going to go run over a squirrel.
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy luv2flirtamswf34Highest Rank Vote downVote upReport thisPerhaps someone should have spayed the Octomom a few years ago!
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy valeskasHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport thisShe still needs to be spayed, because she talked about having more children later on.
Thursday 25 MarchBy Nati Vote downVote upReport this!!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?
Thursday 25 MarchBy really??? Vote downVote upReport thisChris,
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
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy AnonHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport thisYou're right. Even animals have more self-control and self-awareness than she does.
Thursday 25 MarchBy donLow Ranked Vote downVote upReport thisThey 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?
Thursday 25 MarchBy susan Vote downVote upReport this@anon, it's true, peta euthanizes more dogs and cats than ANY other "shelter" i'm in norfolk, i KNOW!
Thursday 25 MarchBy jackLow Ranked Vote downVote upReport thisHey does this mean that she won't be doing the porn movie? I realy wanted to see her in a gang bang seen.
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy amberHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport thisThough 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.
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy FeralHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport thisI 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.
ReplyThursday 25 MarchBy tamabu1High Rank Vote downVote upReport thisWhy 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.
