HBOS Plc and the Fur Trade

Narn | 29.01.2007 12:01 | Animal Liberation

HBOS Plc was formed with the joining of both Halifax and the Bank of Scotland.

NARN's research team has also found out that HBOS are currently renting one of their properties to long-term fur stockers Seasons Boutique, which is currently being used to sell real fur. Please contact the company and ask for their property to be fur-free. As the letting agents, they have ultimate control over their sites so if HBOS told Seasons Boutique to remove the fur, SB would have no other option.

SAMPLE LETTER
"Dear Sir / Madam, HBOS Plc,
I was disgusted to find out that your firm are the letting agents to Seasons Boutique, a store selling real fur.
In the fur trade, animals are skinned alive, gassed and electrocuted after living life in cramped and dark conditions. On fur farms, animals go insane due to the lack of stimulation and self-mutilation is a common occurance - animals have even been known to gnaw down to their bone through bordom. Please persuade Seasons Boutique to take real fur out of your premises.
Yours Sincerely,"
