When someone abuses an animal the punishment should be to do to the perp(s) what they did to the animal.
In is case I might add some baseball bat beating when they are in the bag.
Was it their cat?
Yet another example of the collapse of moral and spiritual values. The school shootings are the most egregious examples of this. Kids have no value for life and views others as just something to use for their entertainment.
Man, if they knew what I did to a few animals when I was very young...
Hopefully the statute of limitations kicks in on this for me. And to quote a Facebook meme, “I’m glad I did all my stupid stuff before the internet existed.”
Is it a feral cat or someone’s pet. Did they steal someone’s property. Obviously they are jerks. Torture of animals for fun is not ok, I agree. There are humane ways to get rid of feral cats (if it was feral). It’s hard to tell if cats have owners because cat owners let their cats roam around.
I’d love to meet these miserable parodies of humans. They’d get to meet a variety of my garden tools.
Oh please. Only an idiot doesn’t know what happens to a cat after he’s thrown in the water. He swims! My wife used to own one of the few cats I’ve ever seen that actually liked to get into the water. my hard-earned tax-payer dollar gets paid to police to do way more than deal with this.
If the extent was throwing a cat into a lake, I can think of a lot worse things that people do to animals. At least cats can swim. I’ve known a guy who catches neigbors’ cats and throws them out of his vehicle on a busy interstate highway.
I pushed my cat into the water once when he was drinking out of the toilet. Am I evil?
3rd degree felony in Texas that can get them 2-10 years and a $10,000 fine.
Not so funny now is it kids?
Show me someone who hurts animals for fun and I’ll show you someone who should be watched as a sociopath for the rest of their life. useless little bastards, beat the crap out of ‘em and keep them on a police watch list forever.
I think there is a major problem with a lack of empathy now. People are basically crappy until they learn that abuse isn’t just a thing that happens/is inflicted on others. I hope the cat got through this, poor kitty.
Kids that torture animals grow up to be adults that torture people.
It is widely known that those who are cruel such as this are very much prone to heinous crimes against other people. That being said, I have heard stories of “old timers” who treated animals with zero compassion and that was the norm.
Did they use a CAT-a-pult?
Likely future mass murderers. Deal with them now so they aren’t a threat in the future.
But it will all depend on whether they are from connected families (swept under the rug) or not (prosecuted).
For punishment, they each need to give a cat a bath by themselves (no gloves or long sleeves allowed).
