The lack of fundamental animal welfare standards in China is causing unspeakable animal suffering. The latest research by VIER PFOTEN has revealed dreadful conditions.

The people in Asia who work in this atrocious job have no heart or conscience! China does the skin alive work, Japan abusively kills Dolphins and porpoise, and whales. Other far East Asian countries are all guilty of abusing animals.
The ones who actually care are few and far between, for them I signed this petition.

Thank you for your support!


FOUR PAWS will use this petition in negotiations with politicians and business representatives. Your signature will increase the pressure on those responsible to improve animal welfare standards. As a voter and a consumer you can help animal welfare to be taken into account!

THANK YOU CRISTINA FOR POSTING!

I was SOOO very reluctant, downright distraught, about the Olympics being hosted in China. I was even considering boycotting by not watching them. But, I'm now embracing the event hoping it will finally expose to the world the many unspeakable atrocities that go on in their land.

I signed the petition! It's not the 1st and won't be my last on this horrible subject that keeps me tossing and turning each night...

Thank you, Cristina!!

This is so deplorable. Can't understand our government in the United States exporting from them or how Pres. Bush could even think about attending the opening ceremonies, oops excuse me I forgot I was talking about the man that lives in a delusional world, by him going there he is condoning the cruel & abusive treatment they bestow on their people & animals. I will continue to sign petitions against this horrible country & government.

Signed & noted w/ deep sadness that China is flourishing & prospering from the blood sacrifice of these poor animals.

We must boycott China completely. Please pay attention to what you buy. If it says "Made in China" put it back on the shelf. Ask your store managers not to buy Chinese products. Be especially careful in the 99cent Stores & Dollar Stores - almost everything in those stores comes from China.

China is intoxicated with it's new-found wealth. They will do anything to get more money, and they don't care who or what they hurt. Don't give them any of yours. Boycott China completely.
Thank you!

All animals should be allowed to be free of cruelty. That includes Dogs, Cats, Rabbits in China as well as Cows, Pigs, Chickens in the western world. Just because they're not always cute and cuddly doesn't mean we should eat them. Let's clean our own act as well.

they are still thumbing their noses at humane treatment of all living things, and yet we have people who refuse to boycott.
there will be no changes unless we make it happen. China has rights groups rising up, we have to remember to support them all, how hard it must be to do that in such a backward country.
