Wiskey.
Tango.
Foxtrot.

She is on 4 Chan's list I bet

Such a friendly cat too. Not easy to find those in my city.

What a bitch. As for everyone who thinks, "Oh, it was just a cat," well, a lot of people who commit cruelty towards children or who commit serial murder start off with cruelty to animals. She should be made to do penance at the Cats Protection League.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is right!

What was going through her head? She seems to be related to my PILs. They have offered on a regular basis to help Mr. Rum get rid of his 2 pests (FTR, we have 2 cats). They hate the fact we have cats.

Why hasn't she been arrested? Isn't this an incident of animal cruelty?

Was the cat even rescued?

Cat was found after being left in bin for 15 hours.

They know who she is. Police and Animal Cruety division are tracking her.

Makes me absolutely sick. Did it ever say why the woman did this? It wasn't even her cat. And she's under police protection because people are after her? Man, if I made the rules (good thing I don't, I know) she'd get no protection of any sort.

[Plaidman]

It's to stop people from killing her. There would be people that do that.

When I read the headline, I figured it was surveillance footage of some woman the drove up to a dumpster and tossed the cat in. Not one that walked up to a neighborhood cat, petted it, and then tossed it in the trash can.

I stand by my sig...

Thanks Plaid for the news link.

It's still disgusting.

I re-watched the video, hoping it wasn't that bad. But it was. I love my kitties and if someone ever did that to them, then I'd be out looking for them to put them in a wheelie bin too and keep them in there for 15 hours. (They'd be unharmed other than sitting in a wheelie bin for 15 hours).

*le sigh*

And my family wonders why I don't like people as a whole.

Why do they hate your having cats? Why do they even *care* whether you have cats or not?

I'm just glad that the 15 hours didn't happen to include the bin being emptied; that could easily have been a bad end for the poor kitty, and no amount of "but it's just a cat" from the idiot who did it would save her.

My PILs (especially my FIL) think cats are useless and shouldn't be allowed to be pets at all. Real people have dogs. FTR, they have 2 dogs both are lab mixes.

[Red Panda]

Dogs? Bah. Real MEN have bears. Untrained bears. If the bears get out of line they put them in their place by wrestling them into submission. Then they make the bear chop wood as punishment.

I have a wolf who worships the ground I walk on.

As for the topic - I guess there was a story where she proclaims to be a cat lover and did it as a joke.

I thought a joke was supposed to be funny?
