Some People Are Evil A-Holes

[Barmaid]

Now, I appreciate that cats can be a nuisance. I am also more than happy if someone wants to give the ones that choose to live here a squirt with the hosepipe if they are a nuisance. I have also offered to pay for any damage previously.

However, I will NOT countenance some evil Sugar throwing bleach over one them which is potentially dangerous to him and to me. If I catch that ****** there will be real trouble. If you want to kill a cat, do the bloody decent thing and shoot it - not let it suffer a slow lingering death from licking something caustic.

It's been reported. I just think it is bang out of order. Having done some mental computation, this is not the first time. I also think it is the same person who complains about my trees and my cockerel (I don't actually have a bloody cockerel). I'll calm down soon. No question, just a rant.

Rant thoroughly justified, barmaid - I hope you tell your local paper too. That's mean, and cruel, and horrible. How IS the cat....?

Is it poor wee ASBO? I hope that he is okay.

Cats are evil but in a sweet and understandable way.

People can be - lots of things I can't type due to AB policies.

[Barmaid]

i don't know boxy. I thought quickly and dunked him in a tub of fresh clean water and held him as long as I could (sustaining significant injury in the process). He has now cleared off (unsurprisingly).

I could send my Princess Merlin down - she likes biting strangers

[Sharingan]

Hope the cat's okay. What a total bastard. We have dog haters near to us here who moan about everything whether it happens or not.xx

[Barmaid]

No wasn't ASBO, was one of the others. Makes me think back to last July though when I had to rush ASBO to the vets because he had injested something caustic..........

[EvianBaby]

Someone threw bleach at your cat?!

That's horrendous.

[boxtops]

Any advice from the vet this time, barmaid? God, it does make you think if there was a "previous similar". Tell the press - get a local vox pop.

I'm not a cat lover, but that is totally out of order, there is just no need for that sort of thing, hope you catch the culprit.

Can't abide animal cruelty. When i worked for the probation service I had a guy with me doing community service for killing a puppy by kicking it to death. He'd tied a brick round its neck & chucked it a pond, it got free so he gave it a 'good kicking' (his words). He also bragged about taking his 9yr old son to the abbatoir & he let him slaughter a calf!
BTW, resaearch has shown that cuelty to animals also goes hand-in-hand with child abuse.

Thats awfull Barmaid. We have 3 cats next door to us that poo's in our front garden from time to time, but they are lovely cats, so we put up with it, also we really like our neighbour too. we could never ever think of doing anything so cruel to them x

[rockyracoon]

What The Funicular! Hope your moggie is okay BM, do the same to them if you find them, lovely fluffsters.

[rockyracoon]

Carrust, that's shocking, if ever there was a case for sterilisation, that'd be it.

[Barmaid]

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Fatboy is still missing and I am still bleeding. bbl, going to find the silly sod.

[carrust]

I tried to treat everyone fairly on the work parties, but i made sure he got all the sh1t jobs. I did check his records & found out he'd been done for child cruelty & sex abuse to his own kids.... I despised that 'man'

[daffy654]

I would have been arrested for violence if someone did that to one of my cats!
I hope your cat recovers with no lasting effects Barmaid.x

I have an ongoing battle with the woman next door who I have caught on more than one occasion spraying my cats (with a hose attached to the hot tap) when they are on the wall between our terraced houses (the wall belongs to our landlord, not her, we've checked his deeds), she also throws stones at the cats, not just little pebbles but big half house brick sized ones. I can't work out what her problem is as our cats don't go to the toilet in her yard or chase the birds she feeds, they just sit on the wall looking around.

[boxtops]

I'm surprised they still sit there, daffy - mine would think twice.

[daffy654]

They move as soon as they spot her in the house now, or if her back door opens. My little ginger one is so timed and small that it really upsets me and I admit that I have threatened the woman with smashing her windows if she does anything to them again. I wouldn't actually do it but felt better for saying it. lol

[daffy654]

*timid*

[MadMen]

Oh my goodness. That is absolutely terrible! :-(

I'm not a cat lover, and they do annoy the hell out of me when using my garden as a toilet, but to throw bleach at any living animal is just sick.
