At least it smells nice, and no animals killed.

Re: Natural fur

Me?

I don't do cruelty. End of.

Mind you I do remember early in our marriage my wife asked for an animal skin coat.

I bought her a donkey jacket.

That's when the fight started ----

Re: Natural fur

I bought a 'real' fur shapka when in Siberia 36 years ago and I still have it and still wear it when the weather is cold enough to this day. I understand it is made from Beaver or Otter fur.

Re: Natural fur

I can understand why people in very cold countries such as eskimos (am I allowed to say that?) wear animal skins, even though I don't agree with it but personally I don't think it gets cold enough here to warrant wearing real fur. I mean we only walk to the car and back in cold weather don't we? According to the 'experts' the Globe is warming so we should all be wearing shorts soon anyway.

Re: Natural fur

Personally I have no problem with people using the entire animal when they kill them, so eat the flesh use the fur. What I can't abide is wastefully killing an animal just for it's fur or just for any other body part. Eat it, use it.
But I won't have fur or leather myself when I inherited my nans fur coat (mink) we dug a hole and gave it a decent burial.

I don't like to see people attacked for wearing it though I do think peaceful protest against it is OK.
