Turn him loose in a tiger cage.

It happened in the 6200 block of South Campbell Avenue at 4:20 p.m. Monday, police said.

Hmmmm, 4:20.  

Not very mellow this Percy, huh?

Do ya think kicking a kitten earned him street cred as a tough guy to the local gangstas?

He was confused and thought one of his friends said "bust that cat in the ass"  

[Cablebandit]

Well it wasn't Cundiff.  He can't make a field goal.  

[scottzilla]

At least they didn't wear the intestine as a scarf like that homeless guy.

[Kneescrubber]

No mention of whether he made it or not.

Police charged a South Side man with animal cruelty after officers say they watched him take a running start and kick his kitten 15 feet to 18 feet into the air before raising his arms to signal a successful field goal.

The officers immediately arrested a laughing Percy Love, 22, after he allegedly kicked the small black cat Monday afternoon in the 6200 block of South Campbell, police said.

He told arresting officers: “This is my cat, Nightmare. He is tough, we play like that all the time. It’s just a cat,” police said.

Officers cared for the cat until Animal Care and Control workers took custody of it. Animal Care and Control Director Cherie Travis said on her Facebook page that, “Despite the terrible abuse, the cat (who the defendant called “Nightmare”) is doing quite well. He’s in medical today getting an exam and x-rays. He is a very friendly and affectionate cat.”

I wonder how the cat got the name of Nightmare?

Fucktard. Someone needs to kick his ass over the goalposts and break every bone in his body while doing it.


I accidentally killed a cat on the highway this week, going 70 MPH at night, cat streaks full-bore across the road out of the ditch, I reached for the brake pedal and before I could even begin braking, I heard the whump-whump of the truck wheels hitting the cat.

I felt terrible about it. Very sad.  

[Meemuh]

Yeah...no call for that.
Doesn't speak to well to the dude's societal value.

Not that a cat kicker couldn't go on to cure cancer, but the odds just ain't very high.

[zer0netgain]

That's what happens when you get caught pussy-footing around.

There's no end to animal cruelty. I was going to post this the other day, but I post a lot of similar articles and decided not to despite my desire to keep this issue on the front burner.

A Chautauqua County man killed a cat by striking it over the head with a log earlier this week, state police at Jamestown reported.

Trooper Paul Anthony responded to a residence in North Harmony on Wednesday, after receiving information that Gregg Morrison, 34, of Ashville, had strangled a cat.

The trooper, after interviewing the complainant, witnesses, and Morrison,determined that the man struck the cat with a log, leading to its death, state police officials said.

Investigators could not be reached to determine whether the dead cat was Morrison's pet.

Morrison was arrested and charged with torturing/killing/failing to provide sustenance to an animal, according to police reports. He is scheduled to appear in Town of North Harmony Court later this month.

I don't understand how we could still in 2012 be dealing with such low behaviors.

Report it if you see it or know of it.

He told officers: “This is my cat, Nightmare. He is tough, we play like that all the time. It’s just a cat,” police said.

I'd like to hear his defense after he gets jumped in jail.  Police asking what happened, and Bubba saying, "Oh, this is my friend, Sweetums.  He's tough.  We play like that all the time."  lol.

FYI, I'm pretty sure most violent crime offenders start off small with abusing animals or the like.  Then it turns out they get used to it and search for the next "thrill", until eventually they become EXTREMELY dangerous to humans.  Glad they started nipping this one in the bud.

Change "Log" to "Pipe".

So this begs the question:
  When one has an animal that needs to be put down, what is the correct way?  Is the vet the only option, or can the animal be put down using any method that assures immediate death?  

Obviously a few of you are doing great jobs at publicizing these acts of animal cruelty- but when one needs to put the cat down, what does one do?  Rely on the vet?  What if one can't afford it?  Only the shelters do it for free.

Depends on the person.  We certainly couldn't pipe/shoot/break the necks of/etc our own cats that loved us for 18 years.  We preferred going to the vet and having them quietly pass away in our laps.  

But that's not what this thread is about.

A well placed no doubter is acceptable with cause.  Don't need a vet for that.
Unprovoked, unnecessary punting (ok, place kicking) ain't so good.

Obviously.  

[tjhess74]

whats funny is that the cops may have had this punk on their radar for awhile and have tried to get him on other criminal charges.  this one is a slam dunk!

kinda like al capone, cops couldnt nail him on mega crimes, but by damned the irs got him over simple tax issues!

this guy is definitely a dirtbag.  quick death for a valid reason i think is acceptable, but this is senseless abuse and violence.  im glad he admitted to doing it in the past with his 'all the time' comment.  gotta love self-incrimination.

You do what you need to do, as simple and painlessly as you can.

Has nothing to do with this thread though...I want to get a Pug and name it Nightmare.
