Stop selling Kopi Luwak Civet Coffee


Stop selling Kopi Luwak Civet Coffee
The Issue
Captured, abused - all for the sake of coffee.
Amazon are selling this rare coffee bean. If you're not sure what it is:
"Extremely rare and coveted, Sumatra Kopi Musang Kopi Luwak coffee is produced by civets, a relative of the mongoose, who have a taste for the sweet, red coffee cherries that contain the beans. The beans pass through the civet after fermenting in the stomach and that's what gives the coffee its unique taste and aroma."
This supports the capture and cruel treatment of the Civet, where they're forced to eat the berries, trapped in battery cages.

We want to tell Amazon, the world's largest online retailer, to stop supporting this cruel product and have all brands of this type of coffee removed completely from sale. The longer this continues, the more abuse is suffered.
Please help to stop these innocent creatures being tortured for the sake of a rare coffee.
Thank you.
