Special: Tortured Hunan Feline and Rice

When Dog Eating is Outlawed, Only Outlaws Will Eat Dog Meat

Further restrictions in China, and although I have very few Chinese readers, I want to console you regarding the crack down on dog and cat eating going on your country right now. This should be especially unjust and cruel to the people of Guangzhou, the "dog and cat eating capital of Asia," and therefore the world, I would think.

An apparant groundswelling of outrage is occurring, and for some reason they are allowing the people to speak.

The first China Companion Animal Symposium took place this March in Guangzhou - the dog and cat eating capital of Asia. This historic advancement in Chinese animal welfare also saw the call for an outright ban on the century’s old practice of dog and cat eating.

Millions of dogs and cats are slaughtered for consumption in China annually. Many suffer deliberate, horrific abuse in the mistaken belief that ‘torture equals taste’. A gaping hole in the law leaves them with no protection.

I'm hoping this practice was banned elswhere in the world years ago right. Like In San Francisco's chinatown. or say, the local 1 dollar per entree place, well all 4 within five minutes of me....right? And here I'd blissfully thought this was mostly an urban legend.

When it comes down to it, it's the cat that throws me off the most. Cat meat, there can't be much, and it sounds, dusty or something, gritty like kitty liiter. The article does mention this ban will be targeting restaurants, so perhaps the chefs know how to cook it just right, with the spices and everything. A catnip garnish might be nice.

At the fancier places, I bet the customer can choose a live cat, and the cook beats and electrocutes it to death right at your table for cooking. A fine selection of various forms of torture to choose from is sure to be available to the elite, who casually critique the effects on taste. "This cat was hanged till near death, then drowned, one can tell by the sweet aftertaste." "I prefer half smashed head with pins"

Trip to Guangzhou before the golden age ends anyone? Think of it like an imminent crackdown in Amsterdam. You'd want that last puff, or sinewy bite, as it is, before the practice is driven underground
