    There was a wave of “sleepy baby animals collapsing in sleep together” on Spez’s site until someone figured out most of them were “sleepy” because they were drugged.

      Just like a lot of animal rescue videos. Horrible, heartbreaking animal abuse, staged to look like an act of heroism.

      I used to watch those videos on YT a lot, until I suddenly pieced it together, that two cats had the very same markings, and figured out what their scam was, I felt so disgusted I ended up making a massive rant and telling every person I knew for months.
