I have to add something.. If you already have one, then that is ok. I am talking about going out and buying one. it kinda is like, buying a puppy or rescue a dog. buying a puppy from a pet store, your more than likely buying from a puppy mill which in turn keeps them in business. same with buying real fur coats at the store. Keeps the killing going to make more coats. JMO Shanna & Ricky Las Vegas Nevada!! My Chi Ricky...

To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, January 27, 2011, 12:20 AM Do you know how many Mink that have to be killed to make one coat??? Or a chinchilla? or any other animal? I am not for real fur coats, or any clothing wear that comes from an animal. chinchillas: more than 100 ( they are so small) 12-15 lynx 10-15 wolves or coyotes 15-20 foxes 60-80 mink 27-30 racoons 10-12 beavers 60-100 squirrels this is how many of each animal it takes to make a coat! (1 coat) buy fake fur. Shanna & Ricky Las Vegas Nevada!! My Chi Ricky...

To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, January 27, 2011, 12:11 AM Ah, that's sad, to kill an animal like a little mink, just to look good. I am one of those people that believe that every animal has a right to live, and the only time an animal needs to be killed for warmth, is if it is a necessity for a humans survival, like if you live in the Antartic and such places where that is the only way you can get a coat. Just my opinion, no flaming intended.

My CHi's have all sorts of warm coats you can get inexpensive ones at places like TJ Maxx and Ross. My Mom had a mink coat cut down and a dog coat made oout of the left over-very chic.
