The dark side is being revealed.
Dog? Pit bull wandering around?
When it comes to animal cruelty, let the punishment fit the crime.
Feral dog, coyote or two-legged monster.
Our cat Bob was an outdoor cat all his life until we moved to the country. Now he won’t budge. He hears and smells the coyotes.
Cats? Really?
meanwhile 62 wounded 12 dead in Chicago over the weekend.
Kill them before they do.
The proceeding was sponsored by my cats.
look, i agree this is awful. I love cats.
But the woman describing Tarot as “ a friend to other cats, and dogs as well” makes her sound like a nutjob.
I hope they catch said cat mutilator, this is a disturbed individual.
Someone is seriously sick in the head.
***20-year-old tabby’s death***
Most cats don’t last 16 years. It is usually dogs, coyotes, hyperthyroidism or just old age that kills them.
If it is a person doing it...it’s the mutilating part that is especially disturbing.
The main threat to cats in Fort Worth are coyotes, pit bulls and vehicles. I LOVE cats. The coyotes saunter down the city streets with somebody’s little chihuahua or cat, politey stepping over to side walk to let a car pass by. The coyotes travel thru a small local park across street from a school.
The pit bulls are another matter. I HATE them. They have no fear will come after you on your own porch and there is nothing you can do about it. You can not defend yourself without being arrested.
Someone who gets his jollies torturing animals is sick and dangerous. Many of the serial killers/shooters started out that way.
and btw this creep will or has killed young women. I bet on it.
The punishment for this killer should be public mutilation until dead, dead, dead but make sure it takes at least 2 days to do it. Non stop of course.
People who mutilate animals are taking baby steps into something that's not good, not good at all. I hope they catch whoever is behind this quickly before it escalates.
On another note, what is a "semi-feral" cat and why does someone make a pet out of one? Seems sort of risky on the surface.
When I was about four years old, I had a small Painted Turtle named Speedy. A neighbor-kid of my grandparents took him one day and pounded a nail through his shell, killing him.
“What is happening to our civilization?”
In this case it’s probably just a coyote or a raccoon taking advantage of some easy prey.
And even if it is a person doing then the solution is simple: Keep your cat inside and you won’t have to worry about it.
I’ve just never understood the mentality of cat owners who think their cats have a right to wander around a neighborhood, fight other people’s cats, kill the birds in other people’s yards, and then spray and crap in the sandboxes of every little kid.
I like other people’s cats. But I like them much more when they’re not on our property.
Im an outdoorsman and self sufficiency homesteader so I do somewhat more butchering of various creatures than the average American. I don't have any proper med school training but I did do well enough in physiology to always get extra credit for "perfectly" removing various organs so Im probably better than the average American using a scalpel. Having said that, I don't think I could cleanly remove a spine from anything without making a mess of the rest of the carcass.
For those reasons, I would be very concerned about who may be behind this. To totally change gears...
MSM article, at least half false with likely plenty omitted, cant take it too seriously without knowing more.
And...
You know when your cat doesn't come home it might have been hit by a car or we can blame those "evil" coyotes but more likely is that another cat killed it. See, when two cats meet and a fight starts, the victor mutilates the foot pads of loser so badly the loser cant walk home. The foot pads instantly get infected and your cat crawls into the nearest secluded place to die in pain from infection & dehydration. YOU caused your cat to get tortured to death. Cats should be shot on sight, youre saving them from the pain of the eventual outcome. People who let their cats out deserve for this to happen.
There is no excuse. Cat owners who let their cats out are every bit as cruel as the butcher just more ignorant of what theyre doing.
Of course, organizations operating by defrauding idiots like HSUS know full well that cat owners are responsible for more death and cruelty of animals that anyone else. Millions of birds and small mammals, not just mice and rats, are mutilated and/or killed every year by unsupervised cats. Its cat owners who should be facing the wrath of an honest organization concerned about animal cruelty and unnecessary death.
Do you know who winds up being financially responsible for all the damage that cats cause? "Taxpayers" of course is always the right answer but its hunters and other true conservationists who have their licensing jacked up disproportionately to wind up paying the tab under the guise of some kind of wildlife rescue and habitat restoration program.
Fraudulent operators like HSUS know all of this but cant go after the average shithead cat owner because then they would be depleting the pool of the kind of simpletons they prey on.
