An Italian TV chef has been suspended after he horrified animal lovers and station chiefs by praising the delights of cat meat during a show.

Beppe Bigazzi, enraged animal rights experts around the country when he gave advice on preparing 'tender, white cat meat' in a section of the show usually reserved for advice about nutrition.

Mr Bigazzi is co-presenter on Italy's version of Ready Steady Cook - called La Prova del Cuoco (The Cooks' Challenge).

I am not saying I’d eat cat, but the outrage over cat vs. any other animal is unreasonable.

I love my cat but I agree with you. Like raising your own livestock then killing and eating it. Bambi even...

I love my kitties, but if I was starving, I might eat someone else’s cat. But most likely, I would eat that cat’s owner and adopt the cat.

If I were a starving Italian I would say: "il gatto è buon alimento"

But I'm a frackin' AMERICAN.

America is so prosperous and badass we eat better stuff and love and keep cats as PETS.

Stupid, senile goombah.

What a barbaric idiot. I'm sorry for those of you whom would like to eat a cat...but they are not 'wild' creatures (house cats) although can become feral if abandoned. But overall they are domesticated animals and depend on humans in large part. There are plenty of other creatures out there that are meant to be eaten.

WTH???
