Sooo...a cat, then
I want to know why he thought it was a smart idea to marinate it alive...was he planning to eat the pelt, too?

That's awesome- I'm printing that out so I can read the story to my cat.
It might even give her pause as she suns herself from the confort of the sofa... But I doubt it: her vocabulary list includes such notables as "Treat" and "MOVE!" but not "marinate". Yet. We'lll discuss that one when she destroys another couch.

Why is it that these sorts of stories never end with an appropriate line such as "the suspect is being held pending a psychiatric evaluation"?

Some jackass here in Fort lauderdale decided to punish his grade-school son for not cleaning up his room by throwing his son's puppy off the balcony- fifteen floors to the pavement- while his son watched in horror.
Judge gave that asshole ten years in prison- the maximum animal cruelty sentence.
a lot of people were shocked and outraged that this man should have a sentece greater than most manslaughter convictions but I disagree. Whith good behavior he'll be out in four to six years.
That's long enough for his son to be capable of knocking the crap out of him for killing his dog.
Of course, the case is in appeals, and, sadly, the dad is out of jail pending the appeal.

Given this guy claimed a neutered male cat was pregnant, I really wouldn't bet on the "thought" part of things ever having taken place...

At least he wasn't on his way to the Erie County Fair. Sometimes I wonder what kind of meat is in some of the food they sell there...

Probably shouldn't say what I would do if I caught someone doing that. But it would involve a rope and a motorcycle

In the Civil War, they used to call Cat meat "roof rabbit".
But hey, those guys were starving. I tell my cat all the time that in a hurricaine, she's "emergency rations".

Yah, but it's probably really tender. All my wife's idiot cat does all day is lay around and look at me like I'm stupid. I'm guessing he's marbled nicely with fat.

Not mine- she sleeps all day and has bursts of hyper speed and energy at night- I'm thinking she's lean and juicy.
