Guest guest Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Please add your aignature to this letter if you want to thank Markos Kyprianou, Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection for his stance to prevent the use of dog and cat fur in the European Union. The signatures will be sent to Mr Kyprianou. Thanks. Dear friends, Please find a letter to the European Commission which I invite you to endorse. If you agree, please let me have your -personal and/or name of organization Country -e-mail and/or website Please let me know by tomorrow (Thursday) morning. Thanks best regards Herma PS the text can still be changed - suggestions welcome. ============ ========= ========= ========= To, Markos Kyprianou, Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection, European Commission Dear Sir, This is to thank you for your recent proposal to ban the use of dog and cat fur in the European Union. As you say, the European consumers have made it clear that they do not find it acceptable to use dog and cat fur and your recommendation in the face of such feeling is an appropriate move. All creatures have a right to live as we do and to kill them for clothing that has humane alternatives can only be considered an act of vanity in an age when we are reexamining our role with the natural world. As you will doubtless be aware, a lot of dog and cat fur products come from China where animals are tortured in every way possible to obtain their skins. They are variously beaten, strangled, hung, boiled and drowned thus making your proposal a beacon to all of us who believe in the intrinsic importance of all forms of life, all of us who believe that animals should be respected for what they are and not for what we can get out of them. We congratulate you on this bold and enlightened step and hope that the EU will take similar measures to tackle all other forms of animal abuse all over the world. Thanking you, Herma Caelen Belgium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
