I too listened in horror as this story unfolded on the news first thing this
morning, poor kitties and poor mummy cat, I just could not believe what I
has heard.

I wont be reading any of the newspaper articles on this story as it is just
so horrific.

I listened to the news when I woke up this morning. It seems that some
Aussie soldiers had been out on the tiles and when they got back to camp
they had some fun with a cat and her litter of kittens.

First they urinated on them and then took a kitten and tied it behind a
vehicle and dragged it around the parade ground. This didn't kill it so
they had another go. They doused it with petrol and set it on fire.
This didn't kill it so they tried again. They put it under the wheel of
a vehicle and ran over it. This did kill it. I couldn't stop crying
at a story of such unspeakable cruelty. And they give them guns!!!

Oh, gosh. Guys, please, can we come up with some kind of "abuse warning"
abbreviation for posts like this one. I thought it was going to be one of those
happy soldiers-adopt-kittens stories.
I hate, absolutely hate, reading about abuse. I see too much of it IRL and
avoid it online when I can.
This isn't a crititicism of you Bev, in any capacity. Just a request.
Thanks
Sherry

It says that the incident involved six soldiers and a litter of four
kittens born to a stray mom cat. They say that alcohol is to blame,
but that doesn't sound like a good excuse.


Alcohol is no excuse!!!!!!!! I could hardly bear to read the newspaper
report. I didn't realise that they killed all the kittens. I am now
hugging B and C and FSP - something like this makes you want to hug a
kitty and tell it that you will never let anything cruel happen to it.
I might add that mixed with my sorrow was a feeling of ferocious fury
amid thoughts of what I would like to do to THEM!!!


I'm no expert on alcohol, being a light drinker, but I would have to
agree. I don't imagine there are people who are good and kind when
sober, and kill kittens when drunk??


Yeah really. Alcohol is more likely to bring out your true self. So these
guys are total *******s and the alcohol just diminishes their self control.
What a horrible story!

How dare I? Gee, I don't know? Maybe after serving 20 years in the Army
and being told that was trained to torture kittens I was offended. Don't
bother kill filing me. I am out of here!
