- A new White Coat Waste (WCW) investigation exposes Clinvet, a little-known lab-animal dealer that supplies cats for taxpayer-funded experiments.
- A previous WCW investigation revealed that Clinvet donated cats to Cornell University for deadly COVID experiments bankrolled with over $2 million from Fauci’s NIAID and the USDA.
- Newly obtained records reveal that Clinvet also transferred 45 cats to Colorado State University (CSU), which maintains a breeding colony that produces cats and kittens for invasive experiments.
- CSU records authorize experimenters to repeatedly breed cats, surgically remove and kill their unborn kittens, and ship their offspring to other laboratories for use in cruel, taxpayer-funded experiments.
- WCW is exposing and working with Congress to defund government dog and cat laboratories and the commercial breeders and dealers — including Clinvet, Marshall, Ridglan, and Envigo — that fuel the taxpayer-funded pet-to-lab pipeline.
White Coat Waste (WCW) is exposing another shadowy supplier fueling cruel and wasteful government animal experiments.
Records uncovered by WCW show that Clinvet — a research facility and Class B dealer, with ties to notorious lab-animal dealer Marshall BioResources — has donated dozens of cats to taxpayer-funded laboratories conducting painful and deadly virus experiments.
WCW previously exposed how cats donated by Clinvet were used in Fauci-funded COVID experiments at Cornell University.
In these tests, healthy cats were infected with COVID, isolated, monitored as they suffered from the virus, and killed at predetermined intervals. Some cats were killed without even being infected because white coats used them as “controls.”
The cat-astrophic experiments were bankrolled by a National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) grant, with nearly $1.6 million subawarded to Cornell.
A separate $650,000 U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) grant — which funds the same COVID experiments and authorizes the use of cats from Clinvet — remains active through May 2027 following an extension of its end date in May 2026.
In other words, Clinvet supplied the cats while taxpayers paid the labs to torment and kill them.
But Cornell is not the only taxpayer-funded laboratory receiving cats from Clinvet.
WCW has also obtained records from the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets showing that Clinvet transferred 45 cats to Colorado State University (CSU) in May 2026.
The CSU investigator designated to receive Clinvet’s 45-cat shipment previously led a $406,846 NIAID-funded project in which cats were infected with dangerous viruses, killed, and dissected.
CSU also maintains a breeding colony of cats to supply animals, blood, bone marrow, and other tissues for biomedical testing, including COVID, FIV, and feline coronavirus studies.
The protocol authorizes up to 120 cats over three years and permits experimenters to surgically remove fetuses from pregnant cats and immediately kill them for diagnostic assays — a major survival surgery that a mother cat may endure up to three times, with only six months between procedures.
And the cruelty extends far beyond CSU’s campus: offspring from the colony may also be shipped to outside research facilities for use in other experiments.
WCW records show that CSU sold 45 cats to Oklahoma State University and Redbeast Enterprises between 2021 and 2023 and collected at least $22,960.
Cats sold to Oklahoma State were infected with FIV, inoculated with COVID, and killed and dissected in deadly NIH-funded experiments.
They had names: Matcha, Morgan, Dolores, Juliet, and Pierce. CSU shipped them to Oklahoma State, where they were used in these cruel virus experiments and ultimately killed.
Clinvet is just one link in a much larger pet-to-lab pipeline that WCW has spent years exposing.
WCW investigations have exposed how commercial breeders fuel the taxpayer-funded pet-to-lab pipeline, including Ridglan Farms, which supplied puppies for maximum-pain experiments; Envigo, whose beagle mill was shut down; and Marshall, which confines thousands of dogs and cats and supplies animals for painful NIH-funded experiments.
After our MAHA Betrayed investigation exposed more than $225 million in new NIH spending on dog and cat experiments under RFK Jr., WCW launched “WTF RFK?” billboards along the 207-mile march to Marshall Farms, demanding an end to the federal funding that keeps this cruel pipeline running.
Beyond exposing the waste, WCW is working with Congress to cut it off at the source through the FY 2027 NIH, USDA, FDA, and EPA spending bills, while the Farm Bill includes WCW-backed language to defund maximum-pain experiments on pets.
Whether animals are sold, transferred or “donated,” taxpayers still foot the bill for what happens next.
WCW will continue following the money, exposing the suppliers, and working with Congress to defund laboratories that abuse dogs and cats.
The solution is simple:
