Certainly not me!

PETA would, though.

That's pretty creepy, but the animals aren't being distressed since they're sedated for other reasons.

Obviously some little rat-fink martinet decided that those four pictures were so outrageous that the perpetrators should be hanged, drawn, and quartered.

Huh? Exactly how was an animal harmed?

I'd like to go back to the days of common sense...their boss should have said "wth are you doing? knock it off" and everyone would have went on their merry way. But now we have police involved and an "investigation" and "whistle blowers" and someone is going to call for "hearings" and jail time, for sometihng that isn't illegal and didn't harm anyone or anything.

Granted, if the "pen in the mouth" was actually harming the animal, or if it really was Nair'ed, then something should be done. But if it's just a case of vet techs taking stupid pictures then people need to straighten out the priorities of what concerns them on a day-to-day basis.

Does that website show the pics?? I couldn’t find them....

Why is that GOOD? You consider bonzai cat good? I’d like to shove you in a jar and close the lid....

[Slings and Arrows]

Agreed. Much ado about nothing.

What color is the sky on your planet? The Bonzai cat site would be disturbing if it were real. (Major hint - IT'S NOT.)

The website has been thoroughly debunked by Snopes.com and the Humane Society of the United States, among other prominent organizations.

I know it’s a myth...but’s still disturbing....and you brought it up to keep it alive and to promote what is someone’s sick mind. You said it was good.
