| China Killing Cats For The Olympic Games "I’m serious. The Chinese government (I use that term loosely, as it implies civilized people) are capturing and killing all cats found. But, no, not just killing them, but putting them into Death Camps where the cats receive no food, no water, no nothing — they are simply left to die. Why are they doing that you might ask. Because they want to clean up the Capital before the Olympic Games! To that end — to kill the most cats — the government has issued warning that cats carry terrible diseases and may have contributed to the SARS outbreak in 2003! They have people so paranoid that owners are turning their cats lose to be captured by special collection teams. Below is a picture of one of the collection teams working. Be warned, it is appalling. I normally would not show any type of picture like this. But, it shows the way the Chinese are doing their so called clean-up or what I’d call a cleansing.

| I better not comment. Except to say: What do you expect out of a country that tortures dogs and cats so they taste better??

| exactly what I was thinking... when England was on their "witch hunt" centuries ago and killed so many cats, look what happened to them. The best way to deal with feral cat populations is SPAY AND NEUTER and then release!

| How on earth did China ever get selected to host the Olympics?? This is in itself is a crime. This so called government is despicable. I will watch the Olympics - because the games themselves are about the athletes and the passion they have for their sport and for excellence. Most Olympians could teach the Chinese government a lot about leadership

| how did they get the olympics? what is going on in this world? only a respectable country should be given the opportunity to host. their government does some very inhumane things to people and animals.

| If this wasn't bad enough they have also been kicking residents out of housing, particularly low income housing, for the Olympics. The whole thing is just sad.
