Default This lady must hate cats.

Quote:
When his missing cat, Lola, was found in a trash bin, howling in distress, Darryl Mann, of Coventry, England, checked the surveillance video from a security camera outside his house.

On the tape, Mann saw a woman pause to stroke the cat, then inexplicably drop it in the bin.

And the youtube video showing the incident:


This lady must be off her rocker. The fact that she strokes the cat before throwing it in the bin proves it.

Edit: She must've gotten the idea from Mr. Bean:

I heard about that story today.

People suck, I hate people.

Something tells me that something "random" will probably happen to Ms. Bale soon. It will be tragic and I will be, like totally, upset.

The British are pretty fond of their pets.

Broken knee sounds tragic.


The worst part is that that cat was friendly. 90% of the cats I see, even inside cats, usually run away from strangers.

The woman is sick obviously as with any other jerks and bastards out there. The sad thing they probably became like that because some other bastards or jerks played them as victim.

Bastardly breeds bastardly

Well, having a mother who got terribly ill and was bedridden for almost a year because of some cat taking a sh*t in our garden and thus spreading some disease the night before my mum went gardening, I can understand this lady wanted to get rid of this cat.

Though of course in the end it's not the fault of the cat, just of the owner. If you think it's cruel to keep your cat in your own garden/house, don't take cats. It's much crueler to ruin somebody's life by letting your cat sh*t in their garden.



Yes, I hate cats. No, I don't put them in the bin. The most I do is scare them away if one comes too close.

I am just glad the press put her picture and full name out there. We don't want any case of mistaken identity when it comes to "accidents".

So a lady who hates cats, is definitely not a lady.

I can't really tell if you're joking or not...but I hope you're not, because I tend to agree...as a great catlover, I find this story to be quite sickening.

Then ofcourse, that it is a cat has little relevance really. Not overly fond of dogs for example, but I'd be just as mad to see her throw a dog in there as a cat.

I'm more of a dog-lover my self, but I am always horrified at stories of animal abuse.

This is the strangest thing watching the video.

Here is this lady "la la la... oh look a kitty" the kitty hops up on the wall "nice kitty" the lady pets it a few times. "Oh look a trash can... I know I'll put the cat in it !" plunk in goes the cat and the woman saunters off.

Really bizzare flow of thought there.

Of course not !
And I didn't mean I like cats more than dogs : I'm a dog lover at heart. But I'd say I hold the whole Animal kingdom in high respect.

I agree 100%.

This is shocking to say the least, you should treat any living being with dignity and respect.
