[Nepeta]

I like to think that people who do this kind of thing to cats come back reincarnated as small prey animals...

I have had to euthanize cats and horses, but I have always taken care to have this done humanely and painlessly. Abandoning an inconvenient animal qualifies one for a special place in hell.

One who will gratuitously do harm to an animal, will sooner or later be capable of doing the same to a person.
