Bradford Sport: Throwing Colour-Coded Kittens To Dogs

[naomi24]

//A YORKSHIRE animal sanctuary has revealed details of a barbaric “sport” in which kittens are “colour coded” with marker pens and then thrown to packs of savage dogs.//

Does anyone know anything about this disgusting ‘sport’, and is it confined to Bradford? I’ve never heard of it.

Its something I feel strongly about as well Wolfie....that, and cruelty to children....it make my blood boil.

// Miss Lloyd also said, despite other media reports, that she had "absolutely NO EVIDENCE to support" A THEORY that the cats had been coloured-in to be used in dog-baiting, so punters knew which kitten they were betting on to survive. //

So, it is a theory with no evidence to support it.

A bit of a soik joke to name them Smurf and Shrek. Almost joining in with the prank.

As I have already pointed out in earlier posts.

This story has started to unravel somewhat.

Gromit/Mikey, That was established on the previous page.

Even if these two little angels were not destined to be used as bait some kittens are. The people who thing that this is acceptable behaviour need to be caught and eradicated.

So it could just be exploitation of the coloured for a headline?

'it's long past time for the law to take animal cruelty, and animal death, far more seriously.' Could not agree more Jim. Poor kittens.

Poor little feline souls - at least their future is secured. I had hesitated to comment on this because any community could have spawned the evil ideas - equally I suppose it could have been some kid's idea of decorating a kitten.

What I would like to know is where the address of the house is ( the one that is being investigated) because that would tell us the likely ethnicity of the area. I'm afraid to say that it could be white or Asian which could perpetrate a horror such as betting on the kittens vs. dogs. Horrible, whichever. :(
