For International Cat Day, you're invited to join the Feline Guardian Coalition for a virtual rally complete with an expert panel on online cat torture, a ritual to mourn cat torture victims, actions to protect cats, and a celebration of cats worldwide. Read on to attend the rally!

Join CNN-interviewed criminologist Jenny Edwards, Professor Guo Peng, Chinese scholars, and campaigners from Feline Guardians, Lady Freethinker, and In Defense of Animals, who will share their expertise on cat torture groups and provide timely action steps to take. Animal chaplains will lead a ritual to mourn cat victims and honor the relationships we have with our feline friends and family. You can ask questions live and will receive a replay link afterward.

Cats are tortured to death in gruesome ways on social media for views by people with sexual fetishes for animal cruelty, called “zoosadism.” Together, we can stop the abusers and reduce online cat torture videos. Join us to find out how!

This event is hosted by Feline Guardians, Lady Freethinker, In Defense of Animals, and our international coalition partner organizations. We appreciate your attendance to protect cats around the world!
