Kim Kardashian Slammed over Christmas Puppies
PETA urges Kim Kardashian to support animal shelters amid homelessness, noting she gave puppies to each child despite the ongoing crisis, spokesperson Newkirk said.
- Kim Kardashian posted via Instagram Stories on December 25, 2025, showing four small Pomeranian puppies and wrote `Each kid got a puppy` for her four children.
- The Kardashian-Jenner family has long maintained many pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles and horses, and Kim has previously given pets to her children, including Pomeranians Sushi and Sake.
- PETA founder Ingrid Newkirk criticized the holiday gifts, saying giving puppies as toys is inappropriate and called ignoring the homeless animals crisis inexcusably callous, singling out Khloé Kardashian, 41.
- Representatives for the Kardashians did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Page Six and PEOPLE, and Kim Kardashian has not publicly addressed the backlash.
- Newkirk urged Kim Kardashian to contact PETA or a local shelter before adding another dog and to fund a local shelter adopt-a-thon or at least one spay day to help stop the growing homeless puppy crisis.
