		<description>[...] I can’t seem to eat chicken anymore without remembering Nat’s post ‘Horrible and Gruesome!’ about the nasty ways animals are slaughtered to death in China, especially dogs for their fur and meat. Yuck!! I don’t think I can even ever eat any Chinese food again. And now I keep questioning everything I eat. I want to go on vegan diet really soon. [...]</description>

		<description>after seeing the video, i got disgusted and sorry for those dogs. I hugged Miki for like minutes and he started screaming, I think he thought i am crazy and got all emo on him. I made him a great lunch after that and let him sleep in bed next to me and removed his colar.
Now back to cats, they need not china, but a trip to iraq with a US flag around their colars would do the job</description>

		<description>Lol, im going almost through the same thing fadibou. Those cats are all over our parking, they leave footprints all over my car after it&#039;s been washed and I can&#039;t even take the top of my convertible jeep off because they would end up sleeping in my car at night and scratching the seats. China is a harsh treatment for them though, I&#039;m just waiting for Geo to grow up so that I can make him go after them and hopefully chase them away:)</description>

Send all cats to China please</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t even attempt to watch the video.  Your description was gruesome enough.  But something you said struck me:  there is so much cruelty going on in the world—to animals, to children, to women, to the environment—and yet we are idiotically banning Danish products because of a frickin&#039; cartoon? The state of the world is the way it is today because our priorities are totally skewed!</description>

		<description>Ms baker you&#039;re absolutely right, nevertheless there are more people starving in Africa, i don&#039;t see them eating cats and dogs there as far I know.. Even if we chose not to argue the fact that chinese and koreans eat dogs, the way they do it like how they torture the animal is just unacceptable and that applies for cows and sheep and all the animals.
Arablondoner there&#039;s no way I could have watched that video till the end, I could barely make it through the first 30 seconds then I started fast forwarding then I just stopped cuz it really made me sick in my stomach. However I read that in some cases the dog meat might be infected if the dog has rabies so you be eating rabid dog meat which is fatal. Also there&#039;s a false rumor among the Chinese and Koreans that dog meat makes them more fertile which is totally bullshit of course.</description>

		<description>Nat-

There was a horrifying HBO expose/documentary sometime in the 1990&#039;s about China and its extreme fondness for consuming dogs and cats.  Not to mention its astounding and inhumane cruelty towards them.  What I saw broke my heart.  And once I saw what I did (a live cat was skinned and boiled), I was never able to forget how strange and ugly a society that has this rich and ancient cultural history could be.

My Japanese roommate in college explained it to me this way, about the Chinese ( and the Japanese are fundamentally dfferent when it comes down to being humane to all living creatures).  When you are hungry and there are too many mouths to feed with not enough food to go around, you cease to put limits on what you will consume.  You cease to care for anything except your own survival.  The concept of cruelty ceases to exist in the struggle to eat and live.

How frightening, and desperately sad...

I could not watch your video for one major reason: I greatly love animals. Cruelty to them drives me wild with anger and will not allow me to sleep at night. I can imagine what was in the video you posted.  The first time I saw such things in the afore mentioned program, was enough to have affected, disturbed, and penetrated me deeply to this very day.  The images are burned forever in my mind.

You can safely judge how civilized a society is by how it treats it&#039;s women, children, and animals...

Enough said, I think.

(No offense intended to anyone from China, this is just my personal viewpoint to be expressed as I see fit)

Ms Baker

P.S. Hope your new puppy is well and happy, and fitting into his new home.</description>

		<description>If cows were skinned alive, I wouldn&#039;t eat them. If chicken were skinned alive I wouldn&#039;t eat them. Fish choke to death. It&#039;s bad, but it still isn&#039;t like being skinned alive. What I don&#039;t understand is why they don&#039;t kill them first before skinning them. I&#039;m not squemish and I&#039;ve slaughtered sheep in Eid myself, but man that video really freaked me out.</description>
