Alley Cat Rescue wants to thank everyone who signed and submitted the
petitions to stop the animal cruelty in Beijing, China in preparation
for the Olympic Games. Together, we gathered over 12,000 petitions,
urging Chinese authorities and the Olympic Committee to stop the
killing. That’s remarkable!

As we speak, 6,000 petitions are traveling to Switzerland to the
International Olympic Committee and in the next day or two, 6,000
petitions will arrive on Ambassador Zhou Wenzhong’s desk here in
Washington, DC.

Of course, China is not the first country to “clean up” by removing
cats for the Olympics; Greece did it and so is England. But if we keep
pressure on the International Olympic Committee and the participating
countries to stop this cruelty, in the end, the animals will win!

Again, thank you to all who showed your support for this campaign and
for supporting the efforts of Alley Cat Rescue!!
