Default Tasteless use of cat in advertising

I can only hope that the Brits use standards of not harming animals in
production of advertising like this. Still - address your outrage to Ford
for even protraying it.

Holy cow, I thought it was going to be something mildly amusing.
That's disturbing.

You would think it is funny. I guess it shows how disgusting an individual
you are!

It is but I highly doubt it is really an ad but a clever mock up by

someone
with some digital skill and a mean streak. Ford ought to sue them.


Sue for what?

I love animals of all kinds, and I think the commercial -- real or not --

is
hilarious.

I found it funny too. I'm sure it wasn't meant to encourage people to
abuse animals. Somehow Super Dave Osbourne comes to mind.
