In a town called La Quebrada in San Luis de Cañete (Peru), each
September 19, is held a grim and savage "festival" in honor of the
virgin Iphigenia, called "Curruñao" where they kill and cook for cats be
"tasted" by residents and tourists. This "festival" is not only
approved and consented by the local authorities and the government but
also by many media and some politicians in Peru who see death and
consumption of this animal as funny and admissible.
This "festival"
is illegal because it is against the law for the protection of animals
No. 27265. However, it seems that we live in the stone age where
everyone does what he wants without regard to anything or anyone.Please
Watch "Campaigning for the rights of cats" The illegal barbaric
so-called " festival of cat meat" done by a bunch of savage primitives..

https://www.facebook.com/delia.solorzanocarrion EXAMPLE LETTER TO:
Lady Mayor DELIA VICTORIA SOLORZANO CARRIÓN
Mayor of San Luis de Cañete and MINISTER OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT OF PERU AND AUTHORITIES..
Through this desire cordially greet and also express my rejection of
the celebration that takes place every year, on September 21 in "La
Quebrada", San Luis de Cañete. We refer to the festival "Curruñao" where
cats are killed for consumer. tolerance causes us concern the former
mayor, Paulino Urbinano Antezana, the current mayor of San Luis DELIA
VICTORIA SOLORZANO CARRIÓN and national and regional authorities to date
not prohibit the consumption of cats in this festival as this not only
goes against the health of people, as the cat meat is unfit for human
consumption, and against the law of animal protection No. 27265, but
also makes us look like barbarians to Peruvians and backward to the
world. Such abominable fact, the killing of cats for food, has an origin
and demagogic politician only started in the 90s by Jorge Brignole
Santolalla, former mayor of Cañete and person disreputable, to
ingratiate himself with the community cañetana. It is absolutely false
that it is a tradition, as the authors of that excuse festival because
no African community in America that eat cats, only the Peruvian group.
Knowing that the mayor of San Luis, sensitive, reasonable and
administered by the Municipality with the idea of making the citizens of
San Luis de Cañete reach the highest level of quality of life in a
modern district, healthy and developed, we ask them to take measures in
accordance with Law No. 27,265 to ban the slaughter, because it is
specified as follows: Section 1. - Declare the national interest to
protect all species of domestic animals (....) against any act of
cruelty caused or permitted by man, directly or indirectly, to cause
them unnecessary suffering , injury or death. Section 4. - Obligation of
authorities and animal protection institutions. 4.1 The state and
institutions duly recognized animal shelters are required to ensure the
proper treatment, health and respect for life and rights animals.
Article 19 °. - pets slaughter for human consumption. The sacrifice of
domestic animals not intended for human consumption shall be made only
because of physical disability, accident, illness or extreme old age,
except that pose a risk to human health. In such cases must be
slaughtered by the competent authorities as specified in the
regulations. Based on the above request that the festival is not
authorized "Curruñao" and a resolution Municipal prohibited. Also impose
appropriate sanctions on those who try to carry it out, sponsor and /
or promote. Hoping that my request to be attended farewell. Sincerely,
your name, Country
