I was recently chatting to a vet friend of mine, and he regaled a tale
of how he used to raise mice for the express purpose of feeding his
cats...

Grosssss. While I understand the natural order of the food chain, it's a whole
different deal to stage a mini-gladiator event for the entertainment of the
cats. :-)

If the goddamned cats have access to canned food there is no reason for
their owner to allow them to torture anything to death.


And the abbatoir is simply a haven of humane death, eh? That chicken
heading toward the knife in the abbatoir has no guarantee of a fast
demise.

A hungry cat will kill a mouse quickly, too.

Also, people buy crickets etc. for their cats to hunt and kill (Phil's
one, indeed). Cruel or attempting to give an indoor cat some real
hunting action?

Also also - are people who watch those nature programmes (you know,
the ones with lions ripping apart cute Norwegian pygmy marmosets, and
all that jazz) fuc'd in the head for choosing to observe this death,
albeit on a screen?

You can be so tiresome. If you think it's fine to encourage your cat (the
ones you allow outdoors in a busy urban area) to kill mice rather than eat
cat food, go ahead. And if you do, yes, I think you are ****ed up. Very
simple.
