Sorry to trouble you. As you know the situation regarding animal welfare in China is diabolical. I wonder if you could give your support to a petition I have currently on the Downing street site? Its about animal cruelty in China to try to pressure our Govt to do something about it.Its doing quite well, but is only up till Xmas. We need numbers. There is evidence that the Chinese Govt are beggining to respond to pressure but this is a major task and we need to keep the pressure up, maybe for some time. If you could support it by signing yourself and perhaps forwarding it to people that would be extremely helpful
The site is at
Petition to: make serious representations to the Government of the Peoples Republic of China to introduce stringent animal welfare regulations to reduce widespread cruelty to animals. There should be an immediate ban on all imported fur. | Number10.g
There is a facebook group to support this at

The government won't do anything about it. If they do, I'll be shocked. A petition won't make them change their minds

china is horrendous for animals cruelty but its their culture, people have tried for many years to stop it. it never does any good. its barbaric. for a country that kills/neglects/abandons their children, pets are the least of the problems
