Recently, there is a very enthusiastic cat protection volunteer named Han Jiali, who revealed to reporters a particularly amazing cat eating industry chain. She said that in Shanghai and some surrounding cities, there is a group of people who specialize in stealing cats, whether they are stray or domestic. They then sell these cats cheaply to slaughterhouses. In the end, you may not imagine that these cats are actually made into dishes and eaten by people.

She said that those who steal cats are really cunning. They often pretend to be food delivery guys, sneak into our community, and sneak up kittens when everyone is not looking. These captured kittens are sold for only three dollars a catty! And then these cat dealers will sell them to people who specialize in the meat business. As soon as the men changed hands again, the kittens were sent to the slaughterhouse. To make matters worse, in Guangdong, there are several cars full of kittens that drive directly to restaurants every day.
Did you know that some restaurants still have the dish "Tiger and Phoenix Pot" written on the menu? According to the merchants, the tiger and phoenix buns are chicken and cat meat, and not only the vegetable market found stalls, but also roasted crispy cats. The cat stall owner said that the cat tastes better than roasting suckling pig after peeling the skin and roasting it!

From a food safety point of view, it is unknown whether the cat meat has undergone strict quarantine inspections. Stray cats can carry a variety of viruses and parasites and are highly likely to pose a threat to consumer health if not handled properly. In addition, even domestic cats cannot be safely cared for without proper slaughter and quarantine.
What's even more sad is that many of these stolen cats are domestic pet cats. They are not only animals, but also members of their owners' families! These cat thieves are so hateful!
Netizens are hotly discussed;
Netizens said: Many people ask: "Is it illegal to eat cats?" seems to have misunderstood the point. First: the origin of cats, which are illegally obtained, some are stray cats, and some are stolen domestic cats. Second: food safety problems, cats enter the market without quarantine, and there are serious food safety hazards.
Netizens said: As a person, I only eat the food handed down by my ancestors, my ancestors don't eat cats, don't eat dogs (cats, dogs, cows and horses are forced to eat when they are on the line of life and death, used to survive) People still have to have a sense of awe, can't eat like this, to satisfy their appetite.
Netizens said: 18 yuan for a big cat is definitely not legally farmed. There are also people who say what breeds meat cats. I'll calculate for you that a big cat needs to be raised for at least 6 months to be considered a big cat, and you can eat the worst cat food in 6 months, and a litter of cats will be counted according to 5. A female cat has the fertility to last 15 a year. The farm sells you for 10 yuan, plus the production cost of the transportation vendor, it is reasonable to calculate 8 yuan. Can a cat on the farm be raised for 10 yuan? Is it possible? Compared with the kind of roast duck that sells 29.9 a piece, the duck has a 40-day breeding cycle, and it is still a dead frozen duck. Therefore, a live cat is made and sold for 18 yuan, and one must be stolen, and it is impossible to make a profit from breeding!
Netizens said: I personally think that it is a violation of the law, one of them: because their goods are not from the right source, there is no quarantine, and there is no legal tax payment, which is a crime. Second, since it is a scratched cat, some cats have owners, and they belong to the private property of people, and it is illegal to occupy them illegally.
We never refute dog and cat lovers, maybe their care methods are a bit extreme, we will briefly discuss this incident from the issue of food safety and the origin of cats.
First of all, at such a cheap price, can you buy a cat for 20 yuan? Obviously, it is impossible, if you have the opportunity, you can go to the farmers' market and the bazaar to see how much a pet cat is sold, and it is impossible to buy a pet cat without a hundred and eighty varieties! Then it is conceivable that there is only one possibility that the source of these cats is stolen, whether it is a domestic cat or a wild cat, only the stolen cat does not have to pay, can be sold at such a cheap price!
Speaking of food safety, growing so big, I have seen all kinds of poultry and livestock slaughterhouses, that is, I have never seen cats and dogs slaughterhouses, you must know that any poultry and livestock must have a qualified quarantine inspection certificate to slaughter, without this procedure, slaughtering and selling is illegal, where can I inspect and quarantine the slaughter of cats and dogs? Obviously no!
Figure out the above two points, it is not difficult for everyone to see that this cat industry chain, from beginning to end is illegal, I am also through the above analysis to awaken everyone's sense of protection, whether it is to protect animals or protect themselves, disease from the mouth, I hope you and I encourage together!
