I'm sorry, but given the background of children be murdered ‘BY Mother's Choice” daily, leaves me totally uninterested in the fate of cats.

Fascinating. While I am no staunch cat-lover, I was taught to respect all life as God's creation and to neither wantonly destroy it nor cause it unnecessary pain.

Are you aware that many of the more notable serial killers got their start torturing animals? Jeff Daumer comes to mind.

Not every animal abuser morphed into serial killers, but nearly all serial killers morphed from animal abusers.

It is the most consistent record found in law enforcement criminal databases, FBI studies showed.

The Link Between Animal Abuse and Serial Killers

This type of sadism is incomprehensible to me. Yes, of course, an animal is far lower on the hierarchy than humans. But to deliberately inflict such suffering is an act of great cruelty. What type of person can get any measure satisfaction from such malice?

A sick bastard who would nail a cat to a post is on his way to worse than that.

Yes of course, but I’m raising the issue of priority - more children are being killed than cats!
Just read story about 13 y/o child, forced into ‘marriage’ and died from sex organ being ruptured and she bleed to death in Arab country - that makes me a lot sicker than the tragic fate of a cat!
