If you have
more money than conscience, you're in luck: you can still head
to major department stores like Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman
Marcus, or Dillard's to buy clothes made from dead animals.
The fur trade is built on the sacrifice of innocent creatures
like foxes, minks, and chinchillas, all just to make
ultra-expensive clothing for humans. These animals either
become outerwear after the cold metal of gruesome
traps sink into their flesh, causing agonizing wounds
and leaving these wild beings to suffer in wailing pain,
sometimes for days. Or, they spend their short, miserable
lives being abused in small cages. When the fur farmer finally
decides their day has come, the animals are often killed via gassing or
genital electrocution.
The fur industry is so
horrifically, sadistically cruel that several cities in the
U.S. and even the entire state of California have now banned
fur altogether. Some of the largest fashion houses in the
world, like Armani, Gucci, and Michael Kors, have also
publicly pledged to stop using fur in their designs. And just
recently, major department stores like Macy's, Nordstrom, and
Bloomingdale's have announced they will no longer be carrying
fur garments. Yet some retailers are dragging their feet,
pretending cruelty will somehow make a comeback. Saks
Fifth Ave, Neiman Marcus, and Dillard's all have blood on
their hands. Tell these stores to go fur-free and remove
these abominable products from their shop floors
immediately!
Thank you,

P.S. It's clear
that the future is fur-free, and these department stores need
to get on board now. Sign the petition today to urge these national
retailers to stop selling fur! |
