- gambiting 5y agoI don't know, I actually find it very good that we use all parts of the animal, and the skin is used for something as practical as a seat/chair. Skinning and tanning is one of those skills that we as humans have developed over millenia and it helped us become who we are as a species - to now behave as if it's distatesful....it's just a bit fake to me, a bit dishonest. You are of course welcome to feel this way, I just think it's a weird thing to be weird about.
- galangalalgol 5y agoThere are plenty of places dogs and cats are accepted as food animals. Surely those places use the leather too? Some of those places are net exporters, so it seems reasonable some of our leather goods are dog or cat but labeled otherwise.
