People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has launched a marketing campaign to rebrand fish as "sea kittens," a name the organization hopes will increase awareness and make the vertebrates more endearing to those who would eat them.

"A lot of people don't realize that fish are capable of feeling fear and pain, that they develop relationships with each other, and even show affection by gently rubbing against one another," says Ashley Byrne, PETA's sea kitten campaign co-ordinator. "Knowing that the fish sticks in the school cafeteria are really made out of tortured sea kittens makes most kids want to lose their lunch."

Hilarious!! 

About 15 years ago in front of my son's school during the lunch hour, some PETA types were going to hand out a set of cards depicting ugly cartoon children, showing the effects of using dairy products(acne, obesity etc).  If the kids handed over their lunch milk, PETA would give them the set of cards.

When local dairy producer heard about it, they showed up and if the kids gave them the set of cards, they'd get back a chocolate milk and an ice cream cup.

Guess who won.

Interesting. I had sea kittens and chips just last night for dinner.

Not if they want to use the association as a deterrent.
