    Petition to save Beijing Cats being killed for the Olympics

    I'm so glad that this article was written. One of the things that the Chinese are doing in preparation for the Olympics is rounding up cats and leaving them to die in small cages. Please sign this petition to get the information about this killing on the mass media.

    And yes I care about people, too and yes, I am a vegan, so I don't see the US as superior in all aspects of animal issues. (Sorry just trying to head off the "rote" attacks on animal rights activists.)
