Do you wear fur?

**Argranade** · 10-23-2006, 12:08 AM

Me personaly,I rather not wear fur but I dont mind seeing native people using it because they usualy use all the animal and actualy use the meat.

My house has a few tails from animals which I realy dont like, I feel so sorry for animals having to be skinned alive in some countires just for money, its very stupid to me and there is no need for this because some person wants to make the latest fur fasion & I have already stoped my mom from buying anything made of fur, if she does I get very mad.

Im very angry at Canada for having seals killed for there skins.

I was watching some videos wear the animals where being skinned alive.. it completly brought me to tears and I was so pissed off by this, I just wanna go in those videos so badly and smack the person in there face soo dam hard that they wont know what hit them.

At Winners the other day I seen purses made of deer skin lots of them, the colour looked rare and the purses where pretty cheap maybe going for $100 I mean here the animal was shot for a purse and they want to sell them cheap probably so they can kill more deer.

Fur can be worn in situations that make sence, style is no good reason and does not make any sence to me, how can someone wear an animals fur and not feel bad about it, im glad there making more ''faux?'' furs now and there becomming a bigger fasion than the real thing.

I doubt the deer were killed just to make those purses. We have killed all the white-tailed deer's natural predators, so need hunters so the deer don't destroy the forests (which they are doing in some areas) overpopulate and starve to death.

The only fur I wear personally is what Miss Hoppy has shed that lands on me.

I personally dont havent really thought much about it so i cant really answer your question, but as far as deer i would have to agree with Karen probably not just for the fur. And to be honest I live in Kentucky and I absolutley love deer hunting, although a lot of u may not agree with it where i live its a common thing. And again to be honest there is almost nothing that will get your blood pumping like a buck walking under your tree stand and you with your bow drawed back ready to let it go. I myself have only killed one buck and one doe, and havent hunted in 2 years but im thinking of going rifle hunting this year. And i know a lot of u disagree but i think a lot of it is where u are raised, if u are raised around it and see it every year then its not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. And as Karen said if some arent killed they will be over populated. I think this would be another good post so i will put one up to see what everyone thinks.

I agree with Karen

! All the fur I ever wear is a colorful cover of cat-hair, giving my clothing a "special touch"

Nope, don't wear fur. Except, like Karen said, cat hair, and dog hair.

**Chilli** · 10-23-2006, 07:19 AM

Nope.
Its sick in a way.

**moosmom** · 10-23-2006, 07:25 AM

Nope! I can stay just as warm in a cloth number with a fine coat of cat hair, thank you very much.

**Pawsitive Thinking** · 10-23-2006, 08:11 AM

The only fur I wear are dog and cat where they lie on my clean laundry!!!

**Zippy** · 10-23-2006, 08:26 AM

Does cat hair count?

**NicoleLJ** · 10-23-2006, 09:42 AM

I do. But only from teh animals hubby has hunted. I have an really nice warm pair of mule deer mitts, and slippers. We like to make things out of the skins for ourselves and others. They are very soft and warm. Now would I wear a mink coat or such? NOPE. I only wear what we have hunted ourselves.

I wear fake fur..

lol

But I will never wear animal furs.

I, too, am disgusted with Canada for the hunt of baby seals up north.

I wear the same fur, along with dog fur. It's on all of my clothes!

The worse thing for making fur is,

Fur Farms!

Those evil places produce animals only to skin them, dogs,cats,ferrets,chinchilas,rabbits,foxes ect... all these animals are being bred for there fur then sometimes skinned alive as I have seen it.

I just want to run to these places and set all the poor animals free its complete madness for all these beautiful animals, those people have no right to do this I dont think humans are doing enough to stop this.

Im sure if a huge group of people came down to these factories and started screaming with signs everyday..maybe just then somthing would be done.
