What utter bull****.

I can't believe this.

You know, this pisses me off to no end. Now because of this, all of their efforts to protect animals will be rendered useless and invalid from here on out. Sick bastards.

It makes me ill. Example #69076587685768705780783076 that people are morons. In this instance "people" can be defined as non-Ledges.

When I finally own a home I'll be one of those cat ladies taking care of all the strays. This seriously makes me ill, so much that it was hard to even read the article.

It reminded me of that twisted mother****er from Boston last year who was going around tying dogs up and throwing them into the river. People are sick, I don't know how anyone could ever kill an animal and be able to sleep at night. I weep when I drive by other people's roadkill, for cripes sake.

I didn't hear about him.

In other news, Mufy got some new toys shipped to him yesterday. He got a new scratcher toy that's like a big ramp. It has a hole underneath the high side with a dangling mouse in it. Well, there was a mouse in there but he already pulled it off of its string. Took him a good, oh, five whole minutes.

He's a punk. When I was putting the toy together he looked into the hole and was very startled. Hehe. Naturally he wasn't scared for long.

He also got a new attachment for his fishing toy, it has feathers, his favorite, and I can't wait to play with him with it. He was purring loudly over the scratcher this morning. What a cutie.

If anyone ever tried to harm him I'd fry their nuts.

I read a story recently about two kittens that were thrown from a car going about 50mph on a highway. They both survived but one had to be euthanized. There are some disgusting people out there.

I find PETA a misguided and bordering-on-psycho group, but from reading the article I got the impression that the animals they took were going to get "gassed or shot" anyway, which would have indeed been worse.

Don't get me wrong. I am a cat lover. Putting my cat Oreo to sleep a few months ago was the hardest thing I'd ever done. I held him as he died and sobbed in the office for a good half hour, and then I embarrassed myself today when I brought my new cat to the vet for a little checkup and started crying remembering when I took Oreo there for the last time. And I'm crying right now thinking about it.

I'd only be upset if the shelters they took the animals from would have found homes for them, and so the injections were needless.

Sometimes I think I'm the only one who has a hard time seeing that! It's so common that it seems like people don't even pay attention. It's awful to see something on the side of the road, and even worse when it's in the road and people continue to drive over it.

Anyway, I always have thought PETA was on the crazy side. I still have to say that I'm glad those animals didn't have to die violent deaths, but I think there should have been a way to not have to euthanize them.

I don't think that was morally right.

I get your point but I can't help but disapprove of recreational fishing. And why is it that people always seem to think that mammals are more important than fish? I hate that.

I'm amazed at how people think themselves to be so much more important than animals. People are animals.

I know. I have friends that go out over the weekends to spots where there tends to be lots of roadkill and remove it from the road or side of the road.

I'm interested to know your stance on swatting at mosquitoes.

I can't believe this. I'm getting sick just reading about it. I can't believe PETA has gotten so insane. It's sick. -_-

my thoughts EXACTLY. it really sickes me to have to admit that people are so cruel and heartless. what is actually few and far between is a decent human being.

When they die and meet God, they will have a lot to explain to her.

The universe has a special place for those who hurt balls of innocent fluff.
