Re: Pets being stolen

It's not my own original post. It was posted on a public community internet forum, and I have no doubt that the original poster would want as many people as possible to be made aware.

Pets, especially cats and dogs, have been being stolen for the fur trade for some time. It's a sick industry. The animals are usually shipped live to China for example, in crates that are so small it's hard to look at. It's clear that the animals are pets as they have collars and name tags. I don't want to go into too much detail for those who would rather not hear it, but I watched a PETA video of what goes on on a fur farm and, well, stealing pets isn't anywhere near as bad as what happens. I couldn't close my eyes that night without seeing the images again.

By all means, please pass it on. It's about a specific area, but I'm sure applies everywhere. Fur fetches a high price.
