    I have eaten cat (intentionally) before. It wasn't cooked by an oriental either, it was cooked and served by a little old lady from Appalachia. She used a recipe handed down for generations. It was good too.

    .... I have been trying to find a 'home' for our female stray here... >;)

    Dogs taste better? Well I'll keep it in mind if we get desperate.

    I think if you eat any meat you have no right to tell people which meat to eat. I eat meat. India worships cows (or something like that) to them us eating cows is what us hearing china eats cats and dogs feels like. But it is our right as human beings.

    I do prefer to know that whatever the meat is, it has had a good life and wasn't suffering and torture, and killed slowly though. Thats the difference between me and peta.

    Meat is fine. Abusing animals because they are going to be eaten anyway is not.

    spotted owl and bald eagle. :biggrin_2555:
