        Because animals are NICE (except kittens) and not horrible like people.

          Because they've got better trade unions.

            I believe that animals serve a purpose, and that their purpose is to fulfill their biological imperative, namely, to reproduce.

            However, evolution seems to have dropped the ball on this one.

            I mean, c'mon, how many fekking flies, cockroaches, worms, rabbits, cats, dogs, and the rest do we need for crying out loud ?

            It's like evolution has been instructed to execute an infinite LOOP.

            Therefore, it's our job, as good programmers, to rewrite the code, and prevent design error mutations.

            Hence, we eat, shoot, kill, stab, wear and maim the little fekkers.

            Not because we are evil.

            But because we are tidying up the code.
            Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

              Denny, how does owning a pet impact on your IR35 status?

Therefore, they could be construed as 'staff' of your business who get paid in biscuits, meaty tit bits and fuss instead of money, the cost of which I claim as tax deductable expense. I have yet to ask Qudos about the viability of transferring company shares to the 'Doogles' of this world yet though.

                  Employing staff is a clear pointer to IR35 exemption.


                  Denny, you are the man, errr, woman!
