Following yesterday’s exclusive, the Daily Mirror has published a second article exposing the cat meat trade in Vietnam.

In the article, Nada Farhoud interviews a notorious cat thief who has trapped and sold close to 1,500 innocent felines into the trade.

“My children hate what I do and feel guilty,” he says. “They’ve asked me to stop but I’ve told them I have no choice.”

Though upsetting to read, the article provides a glimmer of hope. Public opinion is shifting, particularly among the younger generation. An increasing number of Vietnamese citizens are turning against the trade, and the government is listening.

“We don’t support these activities. We hate the cruelty,” says the deputy head of the Department of Animal Health in Dong Thap, where Soi Dog recently saw the closure of a large-scale cat slaughterhouse. “The main reason we don’t do more is because of the [lack of a] law.”

Please continue to stand with us as we push, at the highest levels of government, for such laws to be introduced to protect companion animals in Vietnam.
