According to information provided by animal advocates, law enforcement officers intercepted a car with a load of cats in Zhangjiagang in the east of the country. The animals were taken to a shelter, and the police discovered an underground trade in cat meat – one kilogram cost about a dollar.
According to the news of “The Paper”, activists have noticed that a lot of cats are kept in wooden boxes in a local cemetery. They watched what was happening for six days, and when they loaded the minnows into a van, they blocked the road and called the police.
The incident has sparked outrage on China’s Weibo social network, with many commentators calling for tighter controls on the food industry. “May these people die a horrible death themselves,” one Weibo user wished the cat traders. “I will never eat shashlik again, wherever I happen to be,” admits another.
In June, a scandal erupted at a college in Jiangxi province when a student found a rat’s head on his plate. The school management initially tried to tell that it was duck meat.
