Sir Paul McCartney has vowed never to perform in China after seeing horrific undercover footage of dogs and cats being killed for their fur.
The former Beatle also said he would boycott the 2008 Beijing Olympics after viewing the footage taken in a fur market in Guangzhou, southern China.

To me, Paul McCartney has always been a hero. And reading this just increases my opinion of him.

That is wonderful what he and his wife are doing. I have never liked this about the Chinese. I saw a similar video of the Chinese cooking them for meat when I was really young, and so I've always been wary of Chinese retaurants. One in my city was closed down a few years ago because they found cat meat in their food. :(
