    did anyone else see this program , it really horrified me to see the german shepard being slaugherted in such a way
    Im not a cat lover but the hour long program really gives animal activists my appreciation , i can only wonder how much of that gets into this country

    Yeah I did see bits and pieces of this.

    The can tannery in the philipines was the worst of it that I saw. All those cats being strangled slowly. Sick sick sick people. And worse the cats were stolen house pets. If it wasn't for the fact that I can never find a nice pair of canvas shoes I'd almost have sworn off wearing any more animals.

    i saw the last 3 minutes or so of this last night. what i saw was shocking the way they put the noose (if you could call it that) around the cats neck. it was really disturbing. bravo to TG4 for showing this sort of thing. it might open some peoples eyes

    I agree, those ppl are complete werido`s. I saw bout half hour of the prog, saw all the cats killings.

    the dog butchers filled the first segment of the show

    truly unnerving watching it, a loved the narrators comment at the end :

    "The Fur trade in Fashion is still extremely high, what ever happend to WE'D RATHER GO NAKED THAN WEAR FUR"

    indeed
