                 It's a pet owner's worse nightmare: your pet is kidnapped — 
and then murdered and eaten. It sounds too horrific to be true, but that's 
exactly what is happening in Vietnam.

                  In a break from historical precedent, Vietnam has a 
growing number of pet owners who have dogs and cats as companions, and not 
for consumption. These pet owners live in constant fear of having their 
companion stolen by local dog or cat thieves, whose sole mission is to sell 
their pet to a butcher for quick cash.

                  The lack of animal cruelty laws in Vietnam has led to 
human lives being lost as dog thieves attack pet owners, resulting in pet 
owners retaliating, causing loss of life on both sides. Police are limited 
in serving justice because of the lack of animal cruelty laws.

                  Countless serious health outbreaks of disease and illness 
have also been attributed to Vietnam's dog and cat meat trade, resulting in 
many deaths. Life-threatening illnesses such as rabies, cholera and 
trichinellosis remain a constant danger to local residents and international 
tourists. Such risk also severely compromises Vietnam's commitment to 
eradicate rabies by the year 2020.

                  But we can't give up yet. Dogs and cats are companion 
animals and not food items. Will you help by asking the President of Vietnam 
to protect animals and, by extension, humans?

                  Thank you,

                         Kelsey B.

                  P.S. Pets dogs are being kidnapped, murdered and eaten in 
Vietnam. Will you help pressure the President of Vietnam to put an end to 
the practice?
