#1 This goes a long way toward explaining why Olde Europe seems to be so full of rats these days.

#2 This is a joke, right? It's not? *sigh*

#3 Yet more evidence that proves continued British involvement in the EU is a catastrophe. We've got to stop pussy-footing around, and get out, fur the sake of the national interest. Tony'll be having kittens over stories like this, showing how those unscrupulous weasels will fleece the innocent at any opportunity...

#4 Is Glenn Reynolds behind this too, just like with putting puppies into blenders?

Bulldog: now you understand why we Yanks are distrustful of furriners, eh?

#5 (With apologies to pet-owning readers) Dave, you shouldn't give too much credence to shaggy dog stories such as these.

#6 As evidence of the trade [British MEP Struan Stevenson] has collected...A full-length coat made out of up to 42 Alsatian puppies

Cruella DeVille to the white courtesy phone, please.

#7 Cruella Deville, hmmm.... sounds like a French name, come to think of it.

That would figure.

#8 Yet another reason I loathe the Belgians.

#9 OK, we have accounted for the fur. Good show. Now what have they done with the meat, hmmmmmm?

#10 You're absolutely right, Bulldog. On matters like this, I should paws to reflect before posting.

#11 Is this from the Onion? I can't believe this is true. But then again, they eat horses, don't they?

#12 Hmmm. Everyone knows the Koreans like nothing better than a juicy mouthful of hot dog. Now the Belgians turn out to be flaying our favourite pets and selling the pelts to like-minded friends in western Europe. Perhaps the AoW needs renaming. The Axis of Puppy-Slayers, Axis of Kitty-Killers, Axis of Faux-Ermines?

Or perhaps this is more than mere coincidence. Perhaps our leaders are under some sinister influence intent on dividing the world into those who value/cherish/obey their pets, and those who would eat or wear them. Spotty, barney and India have the President's ear, I tells ya! Forget the Jews, it's the Hounds and Kitties who've got Bush wrapped round their little paws.

#14 Ouch... that must hurt. Sorry to hear you're feline badly, Tadderly. Get well soon!
