Success: Chinese City Bans Eating Cats and Dogs

Target: Mayor Yao Yisheng, Zhuhai, China

Goal: Thank mayor and activists for putting an end to eating cats, dogs, and other pets in major Chinese city.

Zhuhai is the second city in China to ban eating cats, dogs, and other pets. Sadly, millions of cats and dogs are stolen or picked up as strays and sold in the pet trade every year in China. Banning the consumption of these animals in the city of Zhuhai will help to ensure that many creatures will no longer be killed and used in this horrible practice.

Taking this step is especially helpful to citizens, as the World Health Organization has linked consuming dog meat to contracting both rabies and cholera. Luckily, Chinese officials are taking the health of their citizens more seriously and are also recognizing that cats and dogs are beloved family members. In fact, China’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs recently said that dogs and cats should be treated as pets and not as livestock that is raised for food consumption. Hopefully, eating these animals will soon be banned in the entire country of China.  Thank the mayor of Zhuhai and other activists who signed petitions like this one to try and make sure the consumption of these animals in China is stopped.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mayor Yao,

Your city was the second city in China to ban eating cats, dogs, and other pets. Many animals will be safe from being kidnapped and sold in the pet trade since they are no longer allowed to be eaten in the city of Zhuhai.

The World Health Organization came out with an official statement saying that eating dogs could cause people to become infected with either rabies or a bad bacterial disease known as cholera. Now that this practice is banned in your city, less people will likely become sick and numerous cats, dogs, and other pets will be able to thrive.

Many animals and people will be better off now that this monumental decision has been made. Thank you for helping to ban the consumption of cats, dogs, and other pets in the city of Zhuhai.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    Thank you for stepping up and becoming a leader to end this atrocity.

  2. Thank you, thank you! On behalf of all humans who care for animals, and most especially on behalf of these beautiful animals who deserve our love and respect as sentient beings. Thank you for being willing to change traditions in order to leave behind cruelty and replace it with kindness.

  3. These sub-humans with their microphallus’need to be extinct.
    They don’t enjoy eating dog,cats and anything on four legs, they get off on the torture.
    The world is way better off without this scum

  4. Congratulations and thank you.

  5. I agree Carlos 100%.These evil, ugly slant eye dog and cat murdering and eating scumbags need to be wiped off the planet.

      Let’s rejoice that now the dogs and cats will be pets and inedible – unfortunately there are countries that have not changed their way of life despite being in the 21st century – and only now are they beginning to realize how wrong they were – so let’s congratulate them in hopes that pretty soon all other countries will follow their example

    Thank you, Sir. This is great news on the heels of the same ban in N.E. India. I wish the rest of China, N & S Korea, Vietnam, Philippines, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia and many African countries and other islands would follow suit. Now, live markets need to be shut down totally. Apparently, COVID has not taught the a lesson.

  7. Agree all comments now all countries akk over the world should be banned now. Not just one area all areas in the world that do it . Too many cruel mongrels around.

    这是个好消息-但是珠海市民会去其他城镇收集猫狗肉吗?中国更多城镇应效仿,并禁止猫和狗肉。

    This is good news – but will the citizens of Zhuhai go to other towns and cities to get their fill of cat and dog meat? More towns in China should follow suit and also ban cat and dog meat.

    That move is greatly appreciated.
    Now it allows for a new profession to flourish – veterinarians.
    Hopefully, it will be better in your city than in the West where many animals are neglected and dumped due to overpopulation.
    I could see a mobile vet-clinic that does nothing but spay & neuter to allow for people and animals live in a healthy, happy environment.

  16. Yes more animals saved a horrific life and death.Wel done to all those who made this happen

  17. Well, it’s about fucking time. Now, we need to work on the heartless assholes who continue this crime in the rest of China and other countries, as well,

  18. Percy Sullivan says:

    Thank you, and God bless.

    People that consume sentient animals for meat and sexual enhancement – will die from disease – this includes Asia and all other countries on the planet
