Julia is profiting from horrific animal suffering. Meanwhile, Neighborly is standing by her and her tarnished reputation.

Neighborly’s leadership is aware of Julia’s ties to animal cruelty, but the company has remained silent. This comes as no surprise given that Julia herself has also neglected to take a public stand against the caging of animals.
