If people stopped buyig fur altogther...
Actually, I don't think it takes a genious to tell furs apart, I can tell Autumn's from Sonny's and they are the exact same colour. Cat fur has a hollow point. And rabbit is easy to tell from other animals. I hope I'd know if were looking at a german shepherd.

Sometimes i despise my home country

Fur shouldn't be sold at all, no matter what animal it is made from. I HATE walking into shops that sell fur, and feel like i want to scream when i see someone considering buying it. When i was on holiday in Turkey, we went on an excursion to Ephesus. But on the way, we stopped off at a place that specialises in leather clothing and stuff like that. I really didn't want to go in, but there was no other choice. There was this shop, and it sold so much fur. And the assisstants in there were trying to tempt everyone to try it on. They were pestering me, and eventually i got so fed up with ignoring them, i turned around and practically spat out "For god's sake, i'm VEGAN!!!!", which i'm not, but it made them leave me alone. Maybe i was rude, but the fur trade annoys me that much

Why can it not be banned?????!!!!! We need an end to this cruelty and needless suffering for animals.

It's unbelievable that humans still do this... We are on the year 2006, when are these people going to realize about how terrible is to kill animals for their fur?? Someday all this madness needs to stop...

Why is the life of a dog more valuable than the life of a mink? Why is it any worse to sell dog or cat fur than mink fur?

I'm not fond of fur in general, but then again I wear the skin of dead cattle (leather), is that really any better than wearing fur?

I dont care what animal/s it comes from.. its just not right period.

I also walk my dogs on leashes made from the skin of dead cattle...Just a thought I had while out walking today.

To be honest, I thik it is kind of nasty that people are walking around wearing a dead animal's fur, just a nasty thought. Whenever I see people walking down the street in Chicago in 30 degree F weather wearig a fur coat I HAVE to laugh! They paid thousands on dollars for a dead animal when they could have been perfectly warm in a ski jacket like mine I got on sale for $50!!
But I do like leather, how can I not, I ride. My saddle, bridle, belt, and boots are all made out of fine leather.
I always wondered wheather they use the beef cattle for leather, it seems expensive and wasteful not to, considering how much land and food is needed to rase cattle.

I hated having to buy the leather leads I use for my dogs, but my trainers insist on it. I try to refrain from wearing animals, but it can be impossible when it comes to shoes. It's either leather or suede, or both, it seems.
