In many Asian countries cats and dogs are eaten for food. However, the cruel treatment and butchering of these defenseless animals is barbaric and inhumane. Dogs and cats are raised on illegal "farms" where conditions are often deplorable. Some are homeless animals rounded up from the streets while others were once family pets kidnapped from their homes. The animals are boiled alive, beaten, electrocuted, burned, and maimed BEFORE they are killed. Cats are seen as pests and boiled alive to make " cat juice", while dogs are strung by their legs and torn apart. This is all so men can enhance their sexual performance. The practice is truly disgusting. The Korean ambassador (and tourist organizations) need to step up and side with the animals by forcing the government to create and enforce laws that will punish people for their cruel actions.
You can also help by not buying Korean products and by writting to:

We the undersigned have recently been made aware of the cat and dog meat trade, which is a cruel and inhumane practice. Please help stop this blatant abuse of defenseless animals that have done nothing to deserve the barbaric treatment they endure. All this abuse occures because some men believe their suffering will enhance their sexual performance and cure rheumatism. No amount of suffering will accomplish what these induviduals believe they are achieving by torturing animals. No creature deserves or should have experience such an excruciating death for any circumstance let alone a myth.
Cats are remarkable animals that are often unfairly viewed as pests. In fact they control disease and famine by keeping rodent populations in check. In addition, they have many areas of their brain are similar to our own which create emotions comparable to ours. They are the last animals to be domesticated and often choose human company even though they are solitary by nature. We let them down by having them suffer for a myth. Dogs are the first animal to be domesticated and serve many invaluable functions. They are guardians of family and home and would willingly give their life for a human they loved. To die in such a cruel way is to betray them.
There are so many injustices in the world that need to be stopped and this is one of them that can be. You can help by passing an amendment to the Animal Protection Law. By passing such an amendment this horrific practice can be stopped. Such a law is needed so that the individuals participating in these unthinkable acts can be held accountable and punished, with as much compassion as they have had for their victims.
Please help us accomplish this. We know your time is valuable and limited. We thank you for taking the time to read our letter and hope you can help us make a difference in the lives of all the animals that can not speak for themselves.
We signed the "STOP THE KOREAN DOG AND CAT MEAT TRADE NOW!" petition!

I cannot believe that people today, in our world, can treat an animal with such disregard towards how they feel when being put in such horrific conditions and being beaten to death. I cry when thinking of any kind of animal being mistreated. People who do this are disgusting and deserve to be put in jail! Animals of all kind deserve better then this! Think about it.

This is just the worst! I can't even bring myself to imagine how god's creatures can be beaten, tortured and slaughtered in the name of food. If one owns a dog or cat then you are truly blessed. They give so much love. ALL of them given the chance. I depise what your country does to their animals. I wish I could remove them all with a magic wand to prevent them from meeting such a horrific fate. You can stop this crude and barbaric practice!!! Please let these precious animals have their freedom.

Dear ambassador, I am asking you to please pass an amendment to the Animal Protection Law to protect the welfare of dogs and cats in your country. My nine year old daughter would also like to request a stop to the slaughter of the animals she loves so well. I've never met you, but I'm sure you are a caring person and only wants what is best for every living creature in your country.

Sick people. Maybe the coward got beat up when he was little so he feels its fine to beat up an animal. There's a reason why South Korea is known for men beating their wives. Bunch of sick cowards is all they are.

How low can South Korea get? REAL MEN STAND UP AND PROTECT THOSE UNABLE TO SPEAK OUT AND PROTECT THEMSELVES. BE A REAL MAN FOR ONCE AMBASSADOR. Any coward can pick up a bat and beat a defenceless , gentle and animal. It takes courage to stand up for what is right. Torture will never sit well with this world.
