Legal experts in Beijing are drafting proposals for a ban on eating cats and dogs wich have been eaten in China for Centuries. With China steadly becoming a nation of pet lovers, there have been online petitions to end the trade of dog and cat meat across the nation. If the law is passed when it goes to parliement in April, anyone eating the pets will find themselves with a fine up to 5.ooo yuan (450£) or a 15 day prison sentence. A woman from the south-western province of Guizhou who works in one of the thousands of restaurants serving dog meat will be forced to close said,"I hear a lot of people saying dogs shoudn´t be eaten, but here in Guizhou, dog meat is a famous traditional dish. It´s stew and very delicious".
