Do you find this outrageous? Do you want to DO something about it?

If after signing the petition if you want to help the dogs (and cats and bears "farmed" for their bile) in China please send even a small donation to Animals Asia (link below.) They are making real progress in helping change public opinion in China in how the Chinese (especially young people) see and treat animals. I've supported them for years and have had the pleasure of meeting Jill Robinson, the founder who was recognized by the Queen of England for her pioneering work in China.

Please use your voice and your money to make a real difference.

About Animals Asia:

]Cats and dogs in China are often abandoned and left to subsist on the streets, with many dying due to illness or accidents. Government authorities organise brutal dog-killing campaigns to try to reduce stray dog populations. Stray dogs and cats are also snatched from the streets and taken to horrific meat markets, where they are sold for human consumption and often suffer a slow, violent death.

Animals Asia’s work to improve cat and dog welfare focuses on five key areas:
(See link)

Cat and dog appreciation
Companion animal benefits
Dog and cat-eating: the facts
Position paper on dog and cat-eating
Changing attitudes in China


THE OTHER THING WE ALL CAN DO IS TO STOP BUYING ALL LEATHER AND FUR PRODUCTS FORM CHINA. GUESS WHAT MOST OF THAT "BONDED LEATHER" REALLY IS??? LIKE THAT PRETTY FUR TRIM ON YOUR PARKA??? WHAT DO YOU THINK IT REALLY IS???

STOP BUYING CHINESE MADE LEATHER COATS, SHOES, HANDBAGS AND FURNITURE!!!!
