Because I was born a skeptic, I will "attempt" to contact each of these companies and see if HSUS was "worked with", or whether just a letter was sent to the companies and HSUS decided that was being "worked with". I can imagine many of the companies, with a strong letter writing campaign, would withdraw the support as many are certainly dependent on the animal communities for their continued sales. If anybody has addresses/email addresses of any of the pertinent companies, I would appreciate them.
