JC Penny to Go FUR-FREE @ Last!

Subject: Excellent Anti Fur News & our future plans!

Hello Everyone,
Excellent Anti Fur News!
JCPenney, with more than 1,000 stores in 49 states, has become fur-free,
making it the first multiple location, traditional department store to be
fur-free in stores and on its website. The company is currently fur-free and has
no plans for fur items in the future.
Please keep coming to our events. Protesting and outreach works. Mark your
calendars now:
Our future plans: We are not planning any anti fur protests while the
Ringling circus is in town. There will be many anti circus protests to attend
through late April. Please join us because the animals need us to reach as many
people as we can - we can only do that with alot of activists. Please go to
_http://www.meetup.com/HeartforAnimals/_ () for the anti circus protest
details in NY & NJ.
1st fur protest after circus season:
Sunday, April 19th 1 to 3 pm Bloomingdales 59th and Lexington Ave. NYC

"The following has just come to my attention:

Please confirm this policy and accept my heartfelt acknowledgement and
appreciation for being one of the first major retailers to go cruelty-free and
adopt an environmentally progressive policy concerning the merchandise in your
stores. I will be certain to put JC Penney at the top of my list when it
comes to shopping for the things I need and will recommend that family, friends
and associates do the same. "

I just emailed JCPenney to thank them for eliminating fur from their
clothing. I looked on their web site to see if they had publicized this wonderful
decision, but couldn't find anything. I asked in my email if they would put
this news on their web site (or in a more prominent location if I was just
unable to find it). I hope this will encourage more companies to say no to fur.
Thank you for sending me these updates. I do respond as much as I can and make
phone calls and write letters and send emails. Maybe you could send out an
alert to ask more people to send a thanks to JCP- and that would reinforce
their decision and also encourage more companies to join them?
