The boards have had a mixed response after being highlighted on the Spotted Duffield Facebook page, external.
Valerie Bottomer wrote: "I suppose some people have to come out with these remarks to justify the suffering and abuse done to animals because they have no compassion any only care about their bellies."

"We always try and sell with some humour behind us. Let’s face it, there is enough going on in the world to moan, be sad or appalled about so if we can make a few of you smile along the way with a silly sign then it can’t be a bad thing."

BBC NewsAn anti-knife crime campaigner from Nottingham says she is outraged that Poundland are selling what appear to be plastic replica kitchen knives for Halloween.
Hyacinth Francis, who runs projects to help youngsters in St Ann's, said: "It looks like a real kitchen knife. For me I think it's mindless, it's thoughtless.
"For these people it's money, it's money for them but they don't understand the agony people are going through losing their youngsters to knife crime."
Poundland has said it shares concerns on knife crime and from next month it will be completely removing kitchen knives from all stores. It said this plastic knife was just a glow in the dark plastic toy for Halloween.
