Daily Mail: Tons of Felines Are Butchered and Sold to Restaurants By Chinese ‘Animal Lover’ (Daily Mail)

An animal lover who claims to look after stray cats at home has been caught butchering the felines before selling them to restaurants, according to Chinese media.

Sickening images have emerged showing dozens of cats killed, frozen and even decapitated at the man's tiny warehouse in Chengdu, south-west China.

An undercover investigation carried out by the local Chengdu Business Daily revealed that the man, named Huang Fuping, sold the dead cats as rabbits to meat vendors in rural China for 20 yuan per kilogram (£2.3).
