The Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade (CAFT) is a
grassroots organization dedicated to saving animals who would otherwise
be slaughtered and skinned for nothing more than human vanity. They have
chapters in cities across the United States, as well as in the United
Kingdom and Sweden.
CAFT organizes campaigns to get fur out of major
department stores, such as Macy's and Neiman Marcus. They also offer
assistance to grassroots animal rights activists to help them organize
in their communities. CAFT helps groups develop strategies to win
campaigns in the most efficient manner possible.
CAFT is recognized throughout the animal rights movement
as the most reliable source of up to date information on the fur
industry. CAFT acts as an information clearinghouse for information on
all aspects of the fur issue and furbearing animals.
CAFT has distributed the "Dirty Dozen" list of fur
retailers for this season. This list ended up on the National Trappers
Association email list whose members have been urged to call all of the
retailers and ask them not to give in to the pressure of animal rights
activists.
Your calls are important to this campaign so please keep
calling and writing letters to these retailers. Let them know that you
refuse to buy products from their stores if they continue to sell fur.
