Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - Fur - how can anybody be comfortable with this?

Some years ago I saw a TV programme about cats being served up in restaurants in China. The recipe called for the flesh to be of a certain consistency and texture which could only be achieved by plunging the live cat into boiling water, just for a few seconds, so that the fur came away with finger pressure.

The still alive cat was then taken into the kitchen for cooking.

I haven't got an issue with PETA - I don't know enough about them.

My sole purpose in posting was to draw attention to the appalling cruelty inflicted upon animals in China. That's the central issue - not PETA.
