Just makes me feel sick to think of what that poor cat must have gone through. I just wish there was some way it could be inflicted in the scum that shot him.
RIP Teddy
No I think I'd rather put my size 9 on their neck and beat them with the butt of it. Totally boils my **** how anyone can be so cruel.
If that's true, then I don't think I would be able to be held responsible for my actions toward that person, if it were my cat.
It took me about 20mins to write whilst wiping my eyes every 30 secs
I'm sorry mate, I cant post how this makes me feel.
Some people make me ill
Im so sorry to hear about this
:/

That sucks. My condolences
RIP Teddy.
RIP Teddy.
And your point?
Caporegime
I guess his point is that emotions often stop us from thinking rationally, or seeing the bigger picture.
My point is the outburst of emotion is puzzling to me, even more so when it comes over the expense of human suffering (read the quotes).
Its sad for the individual, but why some people are bawling their eyes out over something they have never seen is just ludicrous.
That may be the case, but cat lovers would all want harm to come to the person who was responsible for this.
Much in the same way you might want the same to happen to someone who did this to a child, although I agree that would be more serious.
Soldato
The person or people who did this need torture. Shooting a cat with an air rifle is ****ing disgraceful.
If you're sick enough to do it atleast make sure you kill it.
Low life scum.
I'm sorry for your loss OP

That people are so ****ed up saying that about another human being is acceptable.
Soldato
I'd happily shoot someone with an air rifle if they shot my cat.
I would aswell.
They would cease to deserve anything better in my eyes, it's absolutely disgraceful.
I can't understand people saying they would value the wellbeing of an disgusting human being over that of an animal.
But that's not what they're saying.
sure that would be the case if you all said you stop him doing it.
but you're talking about doing it after the fact.
SO they actually value both.
Soldato
That's pretty horrible. I know how hard it is losing a cat, especially when they suffered unnecessarily.
it IS worse. its like bullying at a top level ,like a 'strong' man beating his wife/kids
a cat is a defenseless animal and the person doing it knows for a fact that it cant harm them back. chances are theyd never dare shoot a human because theyd be too terrified of being shot back
Soldato
This. To anyone who is totally dispassionate about this and is unable to form emotional bonds with animals for whatever reason, they frankly are like members of the family; much more so than the scum-bags who would go out of their way to shoot something that they must (barring significant mental impairment) know somebody probably loves and cares for could ever be to anybody else.
It is, in my eyes, a case of the cat being of more worth to society than the scum-bag could ever hope to be.
Soldato
Bad choice of words wizzkiddy.
Bad jokes aside.
Condolences to you and your family, HaMMuS and R.I.P. Teddy.
How did I know this would turn into someone coming in going "LOL WTF GROW UP ITS ONLY A CAT!!!" Yes, it is only a cat, but there are a lot of animal lovers out there. Sure, saying that the perpetrator should be hung drawn and quartered is probably a tad archaic and I don't agree with such statements. But the OP has just had to deal with a very sad thing and people are merely expressing their emotions, turning this thread into a debate about how different people react to loss (or in this case, the story of a loss) is misplaced and disrespectful.
