This is so terrible. A site that we were able to shut last year has
returned We have to try to shut it down again! A
Japanese man in New York breeds and sells kittens that are called
BONSAI CATS. That would sound cute, if it weren't kittens that were
put into little bottles after being given a muscle relaxant and then
locked up for the rest of their lives!! The cats are fed through a straw and
have a small tube for their faces. The skeleton of the cat will take on the
form of the bottle as the kitten grows. The cats never get the opportunity
to move. They are used as original and exclusive souvenirs. These are the
latest trends in New York, China, Indonesia and New Zealand. If you
think you can handle it, go to this site xxxxxand have a
look
at the methods being used to put these 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!

This is a HOAX. Just somebody's idea of a sick joke. It has been around for years now, and sadly the way the site survives is by people posting to all their friends and telling them about this awful site -its how they get their traffic. I'm sorry I haven't worked out how to do links, but go to this URL and you'll read about it being a hoax:

to be perfectly honest i think thats all aload of ******* i mean first how could you fit a kitten into a bottle and second what about when it needs to go toilet what happens then.
and also as the cats grow their bones would be alot stronger and shatter the glass plus this is obviously a case of animal cruelty so no way would this be going about un noticed by the animal rights people
