Makes me furious
I usually don't pay attention to petition mails and similar mails simply because I don't know the authenticity of the mail and how long the mail has really been in circulation. In addition, I really don't know how effective petition mails are in achieving anything.

However, when I receive mails from people I know are not addicted to the ctrl-forward disease, I sit up and notice. One such is the following. And it makes me FURIOUS.

Subject: FW: Bonsai kittens....disgusting!!!

This is so terrible. A site that we were able to shut last year hasreturned. We have to try to shut it down again! (www.bonsaikitten.com).
A Japanese man in New York breeds and sells kittens that are called BONSAICATS. That would sound cute, if it weren't kittens that were put intolittle bottles after being given a muscle relaxant and then locked upfor the rest of their lives!! The cats are fed through a straw and havea small tube for their faces. The skeleton of the cat will take on theform of the bottle as the kitten grows. The cats never get theopportunity to move. They are used as original and exclusive souvenirs.These are the latest trends in New York, China, Indonesia and NewZealand. If you think you can handle it, go to this site www.bonsaikitten.com and have a look at the methods being used to putthese little kittens into bottles. This petition needs 500 names, so please put your one name on it!!! Copy the text into a new email and put your name on the bottom,then send it to everyone you know!

To be honest, I am amazed that this petition is required at all. I am hoping this is a prank, in the end!
