We don't usually do a post on Saturday, but we think this is to important to wait.
We have recently being reading about dog and cat furs being sold and traded as other animal fur.
The fur from about two million cats and dogs a year has been used in fur trade.
Dogs and cats are even bred on farms in North China so their fur is thicker for the fur trade.
Their fur and skin is used to make everything from close to even cat toys and stuffed animals which are then sold through out other countries .
Even though the tag may say it is some other fur it could still be cat or dog fur.
We don't usually post stuff like this, but we are very against this kind of thing.
I have to be honest and admit that I have always been against fur, but I don't post about my thoughts and opinions because I believe people have the right to their own opinion.
We think fur looks better on the animal, especially on our dogs and cats!
Sadie Said " She would look like a Ball Park frank with out her fur, and she doesn't like that idea."
I left a lot of details out because the details in my opinion are pretty brutal .
We encourage you to read more about this on this page or just type dog and cat fur trade into Google and read more about the trade of dog and cat fur.
We will probably be putting a banner on our blog that will link back to this post to show our support against the fur trade, and you will be able to post it to your blog.
Or if you want to post about this yourself , we strongly encourage you to do so, the more people post about this,the more people will know about the fur trade.

ReplyDeletePlease don't approve my last comment. I was reading two blogs and put the wrong comment on yours. So sorry.
ReplyDeleteWhat? That's disgusting! And how sad! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Good post.

I recently read about this. It makes me too sad to dwell on it long. I never wore fur either. I don't understand how one can justify it with all the great weather resistant coats being made today.
ReplyDeleteThanks for leaving out the gore. I can't handle that stuff. There was a time when wearing furs was a necessity. Two leggers have come WAY beyond that in this day and age. I want to keep my long dachshund hair RIGHT WHERE IT IS. Heck, I get too cold in the winter as it is.
ReplyDeleteThanks for telling us about this. I feel so sad.

Hi Sadi,
ReplyDeleteWe agree with you on the fur issue. If GOD had meant for humans to wear fur he would have given us our own!!!
