Can a ovo-lacto vegetarian truly be cruelty free?

I am an ovo-lacto vegetarian and have been eating organic milk, eggs and other dairy, in small quantities. I make a point to buy organic, free-range, and locally wherever possible, and consider myself to live as cruelty free as I possibly can. I eat many vegan meals and products and have considered making the change to full veganism, but to be totally honest I am very happy in my lifestyle as is. As far as I can tell there are many conflicting opinions on this subject and I am interested to hear more...Is what i'm doing enough to be cruelty free? Are there extra steps I can take to ensure that what dairy I do eat is not cruel to animals?

no.
there is still cruelty, sorry.

organic milk or not - a cow is still being tortured by getting milked. whether it be by a machine or a farmer. "but not milking them kills/hurts them" that is a lie. milk absorbs back in the body after the calf stops drinking milk, same with humans. so the farmer has to constantly impregnate the heifer so it keeps up it's milk supply. then the cow is brought away from the mother because that milk is for humans, not the baby. and the baby gets fed probably a goat milk type milk. and if it is a boy cow, they most likely sell it to a veal factory.

and unless you are buying eggs directly from a local farm, it has cruelty in it.
below are pictures of caged hens and cage free hens. (they aren't gruesome like dead hens or anything but it is sad)

if you don't want to live in these conditions, then wouldn't it then be considered cruel?

Creamy deodorant (like Secret or Dove) that is Not Tested On Animals?

I'm looking for a deodorant that has a creamier texture, like the Secret or Dove deodorants, but is not tested on animals. Many "cruelty-free" deodorant brands, like Tom's of Maine, have a clear, slick consistency that irritates my armpits. So I want one that's a thicker consistency but still not tested on animals. Any ideas?

No one has ever tested deodorant on my dog, Buster.

He stinks!
