Physician Group Says No to Kittens in Medical Training

 The group, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), asked a branch of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) yesterday to investigate the use of kittens in the center's pediatric residency program. The PCRM said that the medical center is violating the Animal Welfare Act, which governs healthcare facilities that use live animals for research, testing, or training.
