Pet Lovers & Sports Fans: How is China "Cleaning Up" for Olympics?

Love your dog? Love your cat? Just love animals? So do many people in China but how about the government... See how China is 'cleaning up' in preparation for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.

China, the up and coming economic power of the world is profiting from a hidden 'dog and cat' fur trade worth over 7 billion dollars. Who's pets are next?

We’ve chosen the Chinese fur trade to serve as our primary focus in addressing animal cruelty since China remains absent of any animal rights/welfare protection laws. Further China uses their escalating crimes of gross animal cruelty to fuel their status as a rapidly growing economic power in the world.

Right now millions of domestic dogs and cats, not to mention rabbits, foxes, coyotes, mink, raccoons and other animals are suffering unconscionable treatment and agonizing death in China. This is a government where most animals including pet dogs and cats mean nothing more than a growing economy from their ‘meat’ and ‘fur’. There are no animal welfare laws for cats, dogs and captive wild animals in China. Yet world wide fur production is outsourced to China because of their low labor costs.

Please join us. Spread the word. Help to encourage other people to take action against this horrific act of violence. Come visit us at Care2 at "Voice for Change A Universal Social Movement for Animal Welfare" to take quick action. Stop the Cruelty. End the Atrocity.

Thank you.

Please take a quick minute to send an action email USDA to clean up cruel slaughterhouses by banning "downers," or animals who can't walk, from the food supply.

The current lax enforcement and loophole-ridden government policy allow hideous abuses to occur, causing excessive suffering and endangering our food supply. Please join me in asking the USDA to crack down on downers.

An investigation by The Humane Society of the United States at a cattle slaughterhouse has documented that animals too sick or injured to stand or walk—called "downers" by industry—have been kicked, beaten, dragged with chains, shocked with electric prods, sprayed in the face with hoses and pushed by forklifts in efforts to get them to their feet to pass USDA inspection.

It will only take a minute. Here is the link:
