Dear Friend,

A cat much like a sweet, social feline you may know is peacefully sunning
herself on a doorstep in China when a stranger grabs her by the scruff of the
neck.

She freezes, terrified, then tries to escape—but the stranger's grip is too
tight. She's shoved into a cramped wire cage on the back of a truck, packed in
so tightly with other abducted cats that she can hardly move.

The truck eventually stops at a crowded, noisy market, and the cages are dropped
to the ground without a care for the animals in them. The cats wail in pain and
fear, but workers keep throwing and kicking the cages.

Her horrifying ordeal ends with a blow to the head and a knife to the throat before she's strung up and skinned.

No being should ever experience such horrors. Your special #GivingTuesday donation to PETA—even as little as $2—will help protect cats from
horrific cruelty.

Today, cats like this one are being sold and killed at live-animal markets in
China—grisly places not unlike the one where the novel coronavirus is believed
to have originated. Eyewitnesses have documented as many as 20 cats packed into a single cage— 800 or more animals crammed onto a single truck.

From the grisly slaughterhouses in China where these cats will spend their last
moments to the massive North American and European fur farms that are themselves
petri dishes for future pandemics, animals are often killed for their skin as
cheaply and quickly as possible. Some will still show signs of life as their
skinless bodies are thrown onto waste piles.

Some companies have been known to mislabel their products deliberately in order
to dupe unsuspecting customers. So anyone who still wears fur may very well be wearing the remains of an abused
cat.

By giving to PETA this #GivingTuesday, you'll be powering our work to expose and
stop such horrifying cruelty.

Every gift—even $2—will get us closer to unlocking our $12,000 #GivingTuesday match.

The only way to prevent animals from suffering in the fur trade is to persuade
consumers and designers to stop buying fur and other animal-derived
materials—and for four decades, no organization has done more to get people to
ditch the skin, fur, and feathers of animals.

Will you be one of the 4,000 caring people whose support cats need before
midnight tonight? With your help, we'll have a chance to unlock $12,000 more for
animals.

Thank you for your compassion.

Kind regards,

Ingrid E. Newkirk
President
