Yes, I have read those studies. I really can't imagaine how anyone could wish to torture someone else's pet , without being mentally deranged. I may wish to kill the damnednable deer, who eat my plants; however , I don't wish to torture them. They'd make a fine venison stew,too. hehehehe
All mammal babies have the same attributes, which is why people are such suckers for them. How on earth could those two boys do such a thing, looking into that tiny, sweet kitten's face ? They must be dead inside, already.
Hey, Bella, we've had our differences, bu believe me, I'd gladly help you, IF some nutter ever tried to do anything to your cat. : - )
I think the article said that the kitten was seven months old. You'd think he/she would be quick enough to get away from his tormenters, unless he/she trusted them and had no clue that he/she was in danger.
