Hello Readers,
Many of you are well aware of our complicated relationship status with Facebook but, since most of you currently come from our well-established Twitter front, you may not know the once barren wasteland that was the BH Facebook page has become a Boomtown!
We came to FB victorious, but scarred from our battle with Hartz.
The first month was pretty rough.
On Facebook, as a Cause, we are not allowed to run around like we do on Twitter, so we have to rely on others to tell people about us.
In addition to that, we had to settle for Facebook.com/SuperBrokenHartzPets due to a questionable FB policy which has made it a little more difficult for people to find us.
In our first month, we only managed 20 “Likes” but all that changed in one glorious night!
A wonderful individual clued some great Facebook Animal Rights Pages in to what we were trying to accomplish and they happily assisted.
Within 24 hours, we went from 20 Likes to 400 and our wall was filling with supporters and victims all commenting about these atrocities.
BH FB is in full-swing. We are continuing to grow and couldn’t be happier!
What we and our Followers manage to fit into 140 characters on Twitter is impressive, but we are not limited in Facebook when responding to comments, allowing us to say what we need to say when we need to say it, including all documentation and necessary tact.
Furthermore, due to Facebook’s timeline system, this information is added to our chronicling of Hartz’ shady actions. Tweets may fade; but comments on the FB timeline, like our blog, remain indelible.
Certain individuals may eventually decide to delete their comments but, as many already know; we document occurrences, should offenders choose to remove evidence in case the need arrives to present it.
With only about 1,500 Followers on Twitter at the time of our launch, Hartz has been falling pretty fast.
With the loss of many Followers, due to our mission of education, Hartz hasn’t managed to gain much ground in the four months that we’ve been pummeling them, despite the creation of their already defunct @HartzFleaTick account and their new, ultra-spammer account, @HartzFlea. The @HartzFlea account launched 127 hacky sales pitches in the first hour it was on Twitter. It has since cooled its jets, but it’s still around.
Of course, only two people Follow @HartzFlea and one of them is just our dedicated #BHwarrior, @Di_sss, keeping tabs on this new creation.
Who are you talking to, @HartzFlea?
At the time of this posting, Hartz currently has 1,659 to our 1,231 Twitter Followers.
You should note; some individuals, including strong supporters in the BH camp, make up Hartz’ “Follower” numbers.
Many do this to make the job of keeping tabs on Hartzy a little easier, such as @Di_sss has done with the @HartzFlea account. This is also a common tactic used to see if someone has chosen to block your account though, for the record, there is another easy way. If you are interested, we will post that information at the bottom of this entry, but we don’t want to get too far off topic at this point.
To continue, we are aware that others Follow both us and Hartz because they are Hartz affiliates or one of the many other companies that are shaking in their boots right now. These companies run the gamut from Flea “Treatment” Manufacturers to Pet Food Makers that are wondering when/if we’ll come knocking on their doors.
Hello.
We see all of you and hope you have been enjoying the show. We trust you are very interested to discover how tenuous your grasp on consumers truly is once individuals learn of negligent actions.
You have good reason to be worried.
Getting back to the subject…
With Hartz already having 98,761 “Likes” on Facebook (thanks to its Angry Birds toys and now defunct “Whack the Crate” game), this is going to be a harder road to travel but we have already seen many benefits to being able to make thorough responses, especially when confronted by those who wish to dispute our claims.
Every question, comment, vote of support and dispute of our claims allows us to clear up confusion and give the public more vital information about these dangerous products.

We’ll see you at Facebook.com/SuperBrokenHartzPets.
Don’t forget, you can also find us on Pinterest at Pinterest.com/BrokenHartz.
Hartz tried to stop us from getting to Pinterest as well.
The funny thing is, we were already there.
SPECIAL: BH TWITTER TIP
A common tactic to discovering if someone has blocked you on Twitter is to swallow a bit of your pride and attempt to follow them.
This results in no harm if your suspicions are confirmed but, if you have not been blocked it could make you appear a little silly and obsessive.
The good news is, you don’t have to follow someone to see if an account has blocked you!
Just go to that account and click on its “Tweets” tab. If you get an error message, despite the fact, known “friendly” accounts are functioning properly at the same time, you’ve got a winner!
Here are some examples.
These pictures were taken earlier today in quick succession.
We took a screenshot of our loyal #BHambassador’s page in between the @RTorossian5WPR and @HartzPets pages in order to demonstrate the fact Twitter was functioning fine at this time. The only reason for the error messages is because our account has been blocked by Ronnie-Boy and Hartzy as well as others, we’re sure!
Here’s a shot of how the error message will look on a smartphone:
Currently on Twitter, though @BrokenHartzPets is blocked by Hartzy, our official #BHaffiliate, @BHpenny is not. Perhaps @HartzPets didn’t get the memo that she is really one of us.
Penny has undergone a bit of a different look over time, due to the fact she was not only inducted into the #WLF, resulting in the beret, but she has also taken up with a protesting pirate!
This has resulted in our fearsome kitten’s current appearance:
Watch out, Hartz!
Penny has been sharpening her claws.
