Domestic Cats being bred for their fur!  Stop this horrific practice now!

Swiss breeding Domestic cats for Fur Trade! 

Target:
Government of Switzerland
Sponsored by: 
The Swiss are breeding domestic cats for their fur.  The fur is ripped off these beautiful creatures and used in the fashion and other industries.

We must stop the Swiss from doing this and ask them to ban the use of fur in any trade within their borders and for import / export either.

Are you going to allow this to happen, are you going to stand by and let the Swiss breed cats only to rip the skin from their bodies?  No?  Please sign the petition now.

Switzerland is a 1st world country, a country of enlightened individuals - people that should know better!  They seem to have lost their way - lets tell them that and ask them to show some compassion and stop breeding animals for the fur trade - most notably in this instance cats.

The Bridget Bardot Foundation are running a petition whixh is now closed.  To learn more about the undercover investigation into the Cat Fur Trade in Switzerland go here  http://www.soschats.org/soschats/

Thank you please do not forget to sign my petition.

A small aside note I am being targeted by some nutter in a hate campaign please just ignore the nonsense and continue to fight for animals.

Thanks

The Swiss Government

We are horrified to to discover that a 1st world country of such a high standard of civility and education such as Switzerland allows the breeding of cats for the use of their fur in the fashion and other industries. 

We respectfully request that you put laws in place immediately in Switzerland to ban the practice of breeding animals most notably in this instance the domestic cat for the use of their fur in trade.

I cannot believe that in this day and age we live in, this cruel practice toward domestic animals is occurring. To breed animals people consider pets and companions, to be killed, and striped of their pelts to be used for human ego is horrid! We must do something to halt this practice NOW!

Yes, not only in Switzerland, it also occurs in Asia, and other regions of the world.

Stop this totally unnecessary and deplorable trade

Ban all fur trades, it involves horrendous cruelty, animals live in abject misery and then slaughtered..........some are SKINNED whilst still ALIVE. There are alternatives, show compassion and leave animals to wear fur it looks better on them..........

Really?!?!?!?! Cat fur??? This is the most sick and disgusting thing I have ever heard. I really think that the fur trade as a whole is a revolting practice, but this is going much too far.

The ban on cat fur should be worldwide. This is nauseating.

This is unbelievable in this day and age. I would expect this in a third world country who needed an animal for food, not in a civilized country where the citizens should be horrified that a domestic animal is being treated like this! Shame on you!

There should be an all out ban on the breeding for the trade of furs of domestic cats. I will not purchase anything swiss made or consider visiting a country I would have loved to visit!

It is totally barbaric that this is going on within the human race. I beg that those who practice this gets the wrath of God thrown at them for doing this to his beloved creatures. I propose that we boycot all aspects of the Swiss economy and any other economy that endorses this monstrous behavior until their government will put an end to this horrific "trade". I have several domestic cats as pets and I cannot fathom even the thought of someone doing this to them in the name of the almighty dollar!!!!!!!!!

yes-BAN THIS EVIL PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can one define the human being as a more advanced race when we are not able to respect all alive species? What means “human” quality then? If our species is able to tolerate free atrocity as much, just for an effect of mode, while being however a aware! It is necessary to react, to deposit reforms giving of the heavy sorrows to this kind of crime

Using Fur is a NO NO in the 21st Century. Get with it Switzerland. The world is watching you, stop the barbaric treatment of animals. I am shocked that you are so cruel and have no respect for animals. SHAME ON THE SWISS. DOWN WITH FUR.

We should never wear fur from an animal. Especially if it is obtained causing animals any suffering. Using animal fur in so uncool. So sick in this day and age.

Life is as dear to a mute creature as it is to man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not die, so do other creatures. This cruelness and agony cannot go on any longer. This is SHAMEFUL and EVIL!

Definitely, beautiful INNOCENT animals killed for GREED! How WRONG and CRUEL! What suffering and pain our fellow mortals must endure at the hands of wicked, cowardly murderers.

You should be ashamed to promote and practice such an inhumaine and cruel proceedure in order to "trade" them for money. You are selfish, egotistical, evil people responsible for this practice and I pray that God will show you justice for your poor, unheartly behavior.

Competely BAN this disgusting, horrible practice!
