By now, we all know what a sea kitten is—or do we?
If you’re baffled by the term, you must be a new PETA Files reader (welcome!). PETA’s been campaigning for sea kittens for years, but there are still some people who look at us glassy-eyed when we mention these adorable animals, which is why we are asking Merriam-Webster to add an entry for “sea kitten” to its popular dictionaries. That way, anyone who hears the term “sea kittens” will know that they are smart, social, and sensitive animals who deserve our respect and compassion—instead of being hooked, netted, and suffocated.
While we’re waiting to see if “sea kitten” makes the cut for the latest editions of the dictionary, you can help make people aware of sea kittens and how to help them with one of our fab “Eat No Sea Kitten” T-shirts!
