Fur Free Friday is
almost here and activists everywhere are hunkering
down to finalize their plans for the most prolific Fur Free
Friday yet! In fact, this year, events are taking
place in over 75 cities on every continent besides Antarctica!
Hopefully there is an event
close enough for you to participate. If not, you can still help
fur-bearing animals by asking Amazon.com to stop selling fur
today!
Every year, over 50 million animals are brutally killed
and skinned to make fur products. While many companies have
pledged to go fur-free, other popular companies, such as
Amazon.com, continue to cause and profit from animal suffering.
After receiving nearly 12,000 emails, Amazon.com’s
competitor, Zappos.com, recently stopped selling all items with
fur and pledged to stay fur-free. Now we need you to help us
convince Amazon to follow Zappos' lead and become fur-free, as
so many other retailers - including Nike, Gap, J. Crew, Polo
Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, and Forever 21 - have.
What
you can do:
Please click here to send an e-mail to Amazon.com CEO
Jeff Bezos politely asking him to remove fur from the
Amazon.com Web site permanently! Then follow up with a letter,
fax and/or personal email:
Amazon.com Inc.

Talking Points:
-
I
was disappointed to learn that Amazon.com contributes to the
suffering of millions of animals by selling real fur--and
thrilled to learn that your competitor, Zappos.com, has recently
gone fur-free.
-
As
you know, animals on fur farms spend their entire lives confined
to cramped, filthy wire cages.
-
Fur farmers use the cheapest and cruelest killing methods
available, including suffocation, electrocution, gassing, and
poisoning.
-
With so many alternatives to animal fur available, it's
time for your company to remove fur from its collections
permanently. Whether it comes from minks, foxes, raccoons,
chinchillas, beavers, rabbits, or lynxes, fur looks best on its
original owners.
-
Please do the right thing: Follow Zappos' lead and ditch
the fur.
