ACTION:PETITION POUR LES CHATS SUISSES

PLEASE SIGN & SHARE WIDELY THESE ➨ 3 PETITIONS AGAINST THE BLACK MARKET OF CAT'S SKINS IN SWITZERLAND! ►PET.1 http://www.thepetitionsite.com/840/750/942/protest-stray-cat-hunting-in-switzerland/ ►PET.2http://www.avaaz.org/it/petition/Scoperte_in_Svizzera_concerie_che_vendono_pelle_di_gatto/ ►PET.3 https://www.change.org/petitions/stop-the-trading-of-cat-skins-on-trade-me-co-nz ✦ ✦FUR TRADE:SWITZERLAND STRUGGLES WITH A BLACK MARKET IN HOUSE-CAT SKINS !*Despite new laws banning the sale of cat pelts, activists say the trade continues !! ✦"THERE ARE A LOT OF CATS THAT DISAPPEAR IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD." Gipsy was just six months old when he disappeared from his home last November. A European shorthair cat with a gray coat, Gipsy had just been settling into his young life with Walery Osowiecki and his two daughters, aged five and eight at the time. Gipsy was the Osowieckis' first cat, and he’d never wandered more than 50 yards from their house in Colombiers, Switzerland.Eventually, he showed up at Walery’s doorstep, battered, bloodied, and with a bullet lodged in his body. Gipsy died hours later during emergency surgery.Walery and his daughters will never know what motivated the killing of their cat, though their story is far from unique. "There are a lot of cats that disappear in this neighborhood," Walery, 49, said in an interview with The Verge. "That's a little bizarre to me." ✦Bizarre, but not inexplicable. In Switzerland, where animal welfare is protected under the national constitution,▬►shooting cats that stray more than 200 meters from their homes remains >>perfectly legal<< !!!!! Environmentalists argue that the law helps protect endangered birds from feline predators, but animal rights activists say it’s fueling a far more sinister operation: Switzerland’s underground cat-fur trade.. !! ✦CAT BLANKETS CAN RETAIL FOR MORE THAN $1,700 ! Tomi Tomek, co-founder of advocacy group SOS Chats, spearheaded Switzerland’s anti-cat-fur campaign in 2007, when she used hidden cameras to film several tanners willing to sell her feline hides under the table. Tomek says the price of a single fur ranged between 50 and 100 Swiss francs, though some were combined into blankets comprising of as many as 12 different cats.All told, her investigation exposed 21 different tanneries scattered across the country. In some areas, she discovered that farmers were breeding cats explicitly for sale to local tanners, with some cat-fur blankets selling for more than $1,700 a piece. Late last month, the Swiss Parliament introduced tough new penalties for people convicted of selling cat fur, after implementing a full ban on the trade in January. Under the law, anyone found to be intentionally selling a cat pelt is subject to a maximum fine of 20,000 Swiss francs (approximately $21,700). ✦"PEOPLE HAVE CONTINUED TO VIOLATE THE LAW, BUT IT WILL COME TO AN END." In Switzerland, cat fur's appeal largely stems from the traditional belief that wearing blankets or other garments made from felines can cure rheumatism. The centuries-old practice was adapted from traditional Chinese medicine, but experts say it has no scientific merit. ✦THE SIZE OF SWITZERLAND'S CAT-FUR TRADE IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO ASCERTAIN..! As with most black markets, the size of Switzerland's cat fur trade is almost impossible to ascertain, and estimated street prices can vary wildly. Frank Schmidt, a campaigner for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) in Germany, says the size of Switzerland's cat-fur economy certainly pales in comparison to China's, where an estimated 2 million cats and dogs are slaughtered for export every year. But for a country that prides itself on its strong animal rights legislation, the cat-pelt trade has been widely seen as an embarrassment. Tomek acknowledges that the government's ban has resulted in a decline in cat-pelt vendors, though it hasn't eradicated the practice altogether. In the months since the law went into effect, Tomek found cat furs for sale at five different tanneries, some of which were branded with a "Swiss Quality" label denoting their domestic provenance. ►Source:http://www.theverge.com/2013/6/14/4429720/switzerland-cracks-down-on-its-underground-cat-fur-market ✦READ ALSO THIS: Switzerland’s Cats Are Disappearing for the Fur Trade !
