Dear Friend,

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

She freezes, terrified, then tries to escape—but she can't. 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 barely breathe.

The truck eventually stops at a crowded, noisy market, and the cages are dropped
to the ground. The cats wail in pain and fear—but their cries do nothing to keep
workers from throwing and kicking the cages.

She's soon roughly yanked out of the cage. Her horrifying ordeal ends with a blow
to the head and a knife to the throat before she's strung up and skinned.

No animal should ever experience such horrors. Making your first gift to PETA today—
even as little as $3—is a powerful way to protect them.

In the coming year, countless cats like this one will be abducted from the
streets or stolen from their families and sold at live-animal markets in China.

Eyewitnesses have documented as many as 20 cats crammed into a single cage—and
as many as 800 animals stacked in cages on a single truck. The bodies of cats and
dogs who don't survive the harrowing journey are left among the living.

For China's unregulated cat- and dog-fur industry, making a few pennies from
animals' skin is worth more than their suffering. Workers crudely kill animals
by hanging, strangling, or bludgeoning them to death. Some still show signs of
life as their skin and fur are agonizingly torn and cut off.

You can spot coats and trinkets made from cat and dog fur at markets in China,
but that's not the only place they're found. Some companies have been known to
mislabel their vile accessories deliberately in order to dupe unsuspecting
consumers in other countries. If you know anyone who still wears fur, they may
very well be wearing the remains of an abused cat.

By making your very first gift of just $3 to PETA right now, you'll help us do
more to expose and stop such grisly abuse in the year ahead.

The only way to keep animals from suffering in the fur trade is to persuade
consumers and designers to stop buying fur—and since our very beginning, PETA
has been doing just that. We've persuaded most of the biggest names in fashion
to ditch the material, backed laws to ban fur farms and fur sales, and inspired
millions of consumers to choose clothing that no cat, dog, sheep, or other
animal suffered for.

We know what's happening. We know where it's happening. We know how to stop it.
We just need you to make your first gift.

Will you make a special year-end gift right now to help protect cats and other
animals?

Thank you for your compassion.

Kind regards,

Ingrid E. Newkirk
President
