<<What exactly is the name of the slaughterhouse you are particularly familiar with?>>

Bloomington Meats. It's just a mile from my house.

<<I find it very difficult to believe that just in Ish's wonderful idyllic neighborhood animals are all treated lovingly and go to heaven happily ever after, so we can eat them without any pangs of conscience.>>

No they're not all treated lovingly. I try to, I have 4 rescued cats and 3 rescued dogs. All have cost over $100 to fix up. There have been others before. Latest is an old grey cat that was under 5 pounds that was dumped. $400 in surgery and good care she now is up to 7 pounds.

One neighbor had a lot of Walking horses, still has. Treats them badly. One really nice horse was in bad shape so I bought him for $1,500 and took $800 at auction. That horse is running on the beach in Hawaii. I saw the picture.
