Watch Out for Designer "Faux" Fur

My personal belief is that nothing should be killed just for its fur. I believe in using as much of something as possible, otherwise it's wasting life.

I do own pieces of rabbit fur - rabbits are a common food.
I also have no problem with leather, lambskin, deerskin, pigskin, etc.

Pretty much, if it's being eaten, I don't care. I understand that some countries eat dog and cat. That's fine - please use the fur too, because then there's really no waste, but don't lie about what it is (hence the article).

I hate seeing mink anything - I know mink is not eaten. Same thing with chinchilla, etc. Those are the furs/skins I'm against.

Also, don't friggen skin something alive. At least put it out of misery first. Nothing should have to suffer.
