Yuck!
So my dad and his wife stopped by the other day and surprised me with a yucky pink rabbit fur sweater thing (everything but the arms are rabbit fur) I saw a collection for Coats For Cubs and plan to donate it to them hopefully they take dyed fur (i saw nothing on their website) I dont understand why someone would think a fur sweater thing would be a good gift for a vegetarian trying to go vegan.To my dad's credit though he bought me a polyurethane (sp) jacket even if it was t=not my style.

1. My Mom gave me some fur earmuffs once. Well sort of.
I opened up the package and she yelled "Oh shit, that's for your sister" and grabbed the box out of my hand and passed it to her. Turned out she'd picked out a really nice scarf in vegan materials for me instead.

I think my sister took the earmuffs back. She's an omni (for now, she's working on it without any pressure from me) but I can't picture her wearing fur.
