I knew it was PA before I even read the story.

[Guyin4Os]

so ... lemme get this straight... it is “cruel” to pierce the ears or tail of a kitten... but it is just fine to pierce a baby’s ears?

[NordP]

Ping - looks like here’s something we both can agree on...this is pathetic and horrifically wrong!

[Dead Corpse]

How is this different from branding cattle, clipping a dogs ears/tail, de-clawing cats, testicle removal on bulls, etc...

I guess I don't get it.

[Dallas59]

Kinda like putting that stuff on a baby. It could hurt itself if those things get stuck on something.

[Slings and Arrows]

What is WRONG with some people?!

[eastforker]

I see no diference to this than clipping a dogs tail or cropping their ears, notching a calfs ear, nose ringing a hog or tattooing an animal for identification.

‘I punch holes in my face, I punch holes in my animals faces’. I would like to see (briefly) a picture of the perp, yes perp this is sick and sadistic.

[Michael.SF.]

PA? I wonder if they are friends of these people.

How many folks have their dog’s ears ‘snipped’ or tails shortened (especially bulls and dobermans)?

They took out the peircings and look what happened!

I love cats and would never do this but as several have already mentioned, what about cows, migratory birds, horses?

I bet those were some Po’d cats that were pierced unless they were knocked out from the drugs licensed groomers use.

And this is worse than the average teen, how?

[Seruzawa]

“This is a first,” said Officer Carol Morrison. “It’s unbelievable anybody would do this to kittens.”

#1- You don’t get out much do you, Carol?

#2- Stop calling these jumped-up members of private organizations “Officers”. They aren’t “Officers”. They just pretend to be ones in real life.

[Responsibility2nd]

Three kittens with ear, neck and tail piercings were removed from a home by humane officers on Wednesday.

I don't see how this is any worse than Bonsai Kittens...

[RichInOC]

I have a comment, but it would probably be pulled rather quickly. Suffice it to say that that’s not the type of kitten people normally think of when they hear about body piercing.
