Animal welfare is the belief all animals deserve to be treated humanely but accept the premise that animals are rightfully the economic commodities to be capitalized upon by humanity. Animal rights is the belief that animals have interests for their own sake and that animals are not rightfully the commodites to be exploited by humanity.
on edit: please no wise cracks about how my tinfoil cats have been shamelessly exploited.
