Default Take your bickering elsewhere (was: Do you have pics of your cats online??)

We like to pride ourselves that this group, rec.pets.cats.anecdotes, is a
nice, friendly group and we live quite nicely without unpleasant,
argumentative threads in our daily lives... so if y'all are going to
continue this arguement, please do so in private, or somewhere else.

What an embarressmant to cats to be dressed up and paraded around,
especially dressed as prey. I bet this feline felt humiliated.
Remember people, cats are not dogs.


I sincerely doubt cats are capable of feeling humiliation. Remember,
cats are not people, they're cats. I can see how cats might feel
fear, contentment, hunger, thirst, anger--basic emotions. But
embarrassment and humiliation? Give me a break! You might want to
look up those words in the dictionary. On that note, you might also
want to look up the phrase "paraded around" in the dictionary. We
have absolutely no proof that the cat was "paraded around." And do
you really think another cat might have mistaken that cat for prey
just because it had bunny ears on?

Personally, I thought the cat looked rather proud in the costume. Of
course, what cat doesn't look proud?

That has got to be the most stupid thing I ever heard. I am sure the cat
was fine with 2 seconds of bunny ears on his head. It was an adorable
pic -- the cat is obviously well fed, well groomed, and totally loved. He
looked completely content. Cats can feel humiliation. I doubt this was

one
of the times that cat did.
