Chinese mainland actress Sun Li attended a photography exhibition for stray

animals, titled " Take Me Home, " at the Xidan Joy City shopping center in Beijing

on Friday.

 

Beijing is the first stop for the exhibition's national tour, which advocates

public concerns for stray animals.

 

Various photos, presenting abandoned dogs and cats, Sun Li nurturing animals,

and photos from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Hong

Kong, were displayed at the exhibition.

 

Sun's photo album, with the same name of " Take Me Home, " was released at the

opening as well. The book tells several touching stories between the actress and

those pitiful animals.

 

Sun signed autographs for fans and donated all the proceeds from the sales of

five hundred of her albums to Beijing Human and Animal Environmental Education

Center for stray animal rescue.

 

Sun now has seven dogs. The oldest Xi Xi is already twelve years old. Sun said

it was hard for her to identify with those in the business of buying and selling

cats and dogs because their actions have prematurly separated lots of animals

from their puppies.

 

" It is better to adopt stray animals and give them a warm home. " said Sun.

 

During the exhibition, visitors were invited to sign a petition to refuse to eat

cat and dog meat or wear animal furs.

 

The exhibition in Beijing will last until the end of the upcoming National Day

holiday.
