I have thought about and discussed this question, and mostly am commenting only to point out that clearly, kittens in this example were chosen precisely to evoke an emotional reaction from the people discussing this situation (as opposed to something like even the medical viability of experimenting on kittens and extrapolating those results to humans). If the animal in question were instead chickens, I would gladly kill them all. Or- I mean - experiment on them.
