Pink? That's nothing. They could have done this

Tell the investigators to look for a pink panther fan...

Hardly sick....just mischevious.

Wealthy animal nuts do all kinds of thinks to their animals...bob their nails, cut their nails till they bleed, cart them in a cage, throw them in their purse...

[Sacajaweau]

You’re right...Imagine the cat with a nose piercing.

Or plastic surgery to make it look human.

You’d be surprised how conscious animals are about their appearance. My dog, Dixie, once ran off temporarily when I tied a headscarf on her head. Went next door into the neighbor’s woods, hung her head in shame and lay down. I had to remove scarf and convince her I was sorry and wouldn’t do it again before she reluctantly came home. (The scarf looked cute on her; but she was mortified about it.) Cats are just as picky, if not pickier.

Bad Twinkie!

Pink Cat...That's what happens when you wash a white cat in a load with a red shirt/sock.

I was always told to separate colors from white cats.

[Grizzled Bear]

It’s a Brazilian?

I'm pretty sure only one cat was involved.

[angcat]

That’s cruel and abusive to me.

"Have you seen the pic. It looks as if the cat is upset. :)"

If I were a kitty, I'd be upset with the baths the vets performed. Cat hate wetness. I doubt the cat cares what color it is, as long as it is fed and has a cozy place to curl up at.

BTW, that pink cat is cute. I want a pink cat. Too bad I have a black cat. Maybe if I bleach her first.... hm..... Maybe I'll just do the whiskers. LOL

What's wrong with a pink cat?

[gymbeau]

It’s Barbra Streisand!

ROFL.

Thank you.

[garyhope]

ROFL.

Thank you.

[garyhope]

Yeah.

My ex and I used to have a rescued small white poodle (great dog, very smart and tough) that we used to dye multiple colors. Purple, magenta, green, orange, etc. The dog never said a word that she didn’t like it.

[boatbums]

They dyed its tongue too?

And its nose and paw pads and inner ears and... It could be worse.

[murron]

Do they still dye baby chicks around Easter time?

I had a Yorkie, 5 lbs. Little dogs like yorkies need to wear clothes in the winter because they cannot keep themselves warm. My Yorkie was a dog with dignity and I had a brown turtlneck sweater that he wore that didnt look so much like clothes.

I once talked to a priest online about 20 years ago (Fidonet, a BBS system like an electronic “pony express”) or so where every St. Patrick’s Day, they would dye their white cat green with food color. The downside is when she would run up against something, the color would rub off on it.
