Translation of Darling the Big's 27 April Press release, provided as a public service by Amber Lee.

I regret that I have but one fur to give for The FUR!

Alas, a noble beast such as I am, now reduced to an object of pity and scorn due to the evil acts of my own Mommy, she who I trusted and loved all my three years.

If my suffering this indignity can serve as a symbolic act on behalf of felines everywhere, then I, Darlin' the Big, am willing, as Martyr of the Month, if elected to this exaulted post, to allow terrible pictures like the one below to be shown freely by The FUR, on the internet and elsewhere in defence of feline rights and realities not only among our small community, but worldwide if the need arises.

As this should prove, I am truly devoted to the cause of The Fur and will be happy, even at the cost of my own personal dignity, to serve the organization to the very best of my ability as May Martyr of the Month.

Thanks again to all my many supporters; do not fail to cast your vote for the candidate willing to sacrifice all for The FUR: Darlin' the Big!






The martyrdom of Darlin', the whole story
