COMPASSION CAMPAIGN

MAKE CAT AND DOG MEAT ILLEGAL IN THAILAND

Yes I know it was not a good photo. Tomorrow I can get the one in the office

from Khao Sod newspaper and scan it to you. It's better view of Tub AND THE

DAMAGE DONE TO HIM.

 

Last night ITV continued the features about companion animals being eaten.

This time it was focused on cats. It showed cats being rounded up in Thailand,

trucked to Vietnam and boiled ALIVE!

 

The one hour show finished with the interview with Sanya - our singing lawyer

- why we should not eat our friends, and then concluded with him singing on the

steps of the Culture Ministry; Why am I born, to die...so you may live....

 

This week we forge ahead with more signatures which we gather on the streets

of Chiang Mai. It has proved to be a good way of obtaining information. People

are cooperating in general, the few who back away give us leads.... some say

they like to eat it! Most are disgusted and blame it on the Chinese or Korean or

the Akka hilltribe people.

 

Attached is some info I found by chance on the internet.

 

 

Merry Cat'mas and have a Doggie New Year!

Dear Hanna, okay I worked out what pic you want. I have a newspaper clip with

me now from Daily News in CM which I will scan after and send you in another

mail. There is a better clip from Khao Sod but it's in the office and I won't be

able to get it until tomorrow.

Thanks hugs M

PS. I sent them some months ago something, & they brought it right on National

TV after the 6PM news.... - which was great... If you sent me the pix of that

dog.... it will help. When the Thai Embassy will see this on TV here.... it

might impact... and something will be done.... okay ??

this... - in the Land of Smiles.....

 

Hi there my friends at care2 & at Green Peace.....

 

below true story just received form Thailand may be of interest to you.... -

Can you guys do something about this too ???

 

It makes any one sick and very sad reading this...... it is gut wrenching

stuff... and this in 2006 !!!

 

Fro your info, I left TH in 1980 after 10 years - so it appears nothing has

changed since.... This story is nothing new to me.... - but is horrible just

the same. What is new to me, it is still going on !!!! and nothing is done about

it.

 

I lived near Soi Ari off Suhumvit Rd, in BKK there were dog eating &

slaughtering places too.... and I did not think my jet black German Giant

Schnauzers were safe even back then - I was told in Chiangmai nothing has

changed.... indeed it is sickening - send this to the Oz Australian News paper.

and papers around the globe....... pressures from outside just may help to

change this rotten attititude towards animals.......

 

.....where is the Thai Buddhism gone.... ???????? Are all the tourist to TH -

taking a blind eye.... ???!!! and the global animal liberation forums as well

??? !!!

" Undisclosed-Recipients:

 

Dogs in Thailand.............

 

 

Peter,

Reading this makes me sick....... (this is a report from my friend at the Love

Animal House here in Chiangmai, Thailand). - H

 

 

On Dec. 9th Chiang Mai held its annual dog show at the sports stadium. Love

Animal House and Grant's dog/cat rescue under Thai Animal Guardian Assn. joined

hands to start a petition against eating dog meat and we sold T shirts with the

message in Thai. There was a great response because everyone wanted to support

the King. On his birthday Dec. 5th, King Bhumiphol opened a photo exhibition of

his beloved street dogs and asked that mercy and compassion be shown to all

animals this year. Next year HRH will be 80, so we have now come up with the

idea that we want to push the interim government, who loves the Royal family, to

make a law in Thailand that consumption of cat and dog meat is illegal. This

would be a great gift for His Majesty.

Yesterday animal rights lawyer Sanya Sukrasorn went to San Patong market to

investigate the situation. He found dog meat readily available. If you want

fresh meat, come 8 am, it's 40 baht a kilo. The market was full of 'chadao',

even grilled organs, 5 restaurants served dog in every way.

If you have a foreign big dog for sale, they pay 600 baht. Golden Retrievers

are especially delicious!

Several people have reported their pure breed dogs stolen lately, even some

people at the dog show. Including Jack Steiner who has sold Thai Ridgeback dogs

to Nicholas Cage. His dog was stolen last week.

Several months ago, two motorcycles were seen driving slowly down a dark city

street late at night. One guy had a club and the other guy had a snare. They

circled in on a black dog who slept in front of a condo on the sidewalk. Before

the security guards could stop them, one guy raced past, clubbed the dog on the

head and the other guy came behind and snatched it.

Today, we found a case with an old dog who had been clubbed on the head so his

brain expanded 10 times out of his head. He was still walking around looking for

his master who had abandoned him a month before. Neighbors fed him and tried to

get him to stay inside like he did when his former owner was there, but he

waddled out every day and came back late. Ate very little. Then some drunk men

came and hit him on the head and wanted to take him, but the people stopped

them. They took the dog to the hospital, but after it got back they did not care

for the wound very well, so today when we found him, he was in a very bad

condition.

Sanya called the Thai newspapers and even ITV came.Everyone was so shocked to

see the poor dog, who incidently was the sweetest old fellow. Even after what

happened to him, he let strangers care for him. I held him when the vet gave an

injection and he didn't even twitch, just looked at me with his one sad eye. His

name is Tub and he is the one who had to suffer so that others may be saved. We

don't know how long he has left or if he will survive. The vets are trying to do

their best. I will get his picture from the press tomorrow and send to you.

We now have the sympathy of the press who have agreed to cooperate with us on

every abuse case. Tub will be in every newspaper in the morning and probably

came out on ITV this evening. We are warning people that pets are getting

stolen. Please don't abandon your pets on the street. It is dangerous. People

are eating dogs in San Patong. If you are outraged, please join our petition. We

need 50,000 signatures from CM. The press will help us, when we have the

signatures, 200 people will go to San Patong with the press and make a big

demonstration. We demand it be shut down.

Chiang Mai Journal has agreed to print this message in colour on the front

page continously;

see attachment - pets prayer.

Okay well, that's our plan. We need all the help we can get. So if there is

anyone out there who can add unto this, then please please do so. I tried to set

up a petition on the petition site last night but it didn't go through because

of bad internet disturbance. So I will try again later.

Regards Marianne Willemse Love Animal House Thailand,_._,___

<P>Due to the media presence and word-wide protests the Thailand

government has introduced a series of measures aimed at stopping the

slaughter of dogs in the north of the country. At long last a reason for

spared this fate.</P>
