Joe the cat

There seems to be a wave of horrific animal abuse stories going around recently. One close to home is about Joe the cat who was shot 17 times in the head with a pellet gun. Luckily he got help in time and is recovering and some arrests have been made. There's also a petition going around if anyone is interested in signing it in order to get tougher animal cruelty laws here in Ontario.

Two other heart shattering stories that I've heard was about the puppy who was fed bleach and the kitten who's owner put him in a microwave for 5 minutes.
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!

Then I thought about it and http://media.comicbookmovie.com/ima.....-futurama.jpeg
If you can't show respect for this planet and the beings living on it, then you don't deserve to live here. Maybe they can go to Mars and do that shit but we've already fucked this planet to high hell, we don't need shit like this going on.
The founder used to be an animal trainer in Hollywood until she saw what really went on, spent the rest of her life fighting to get circuses banned. Recently lost a battle with cancer, but her cause is making some steam in the US, recently LA banned the use of hooks in training elephants.
Unfortunately "laws" will do nothing to tame the temper of a monster, so all we can do is lock these people up as we discover them.
Hopefully some stronger laws might make some offenders think twice before doing something terrible to an animal, but yeah most of the time we find out who's a monster after they've shown their teeth :(
Founder's gone but her partner is still a great political schmoozer and has Bob Barker on their side, donating over $5 million to build new houses for the elephants they bring in and keep the place running.
its a sick and horrible mindset and I'd never do anything like that to my cat or any animal for that matter :o
I took in a stray cat once. He was really nice and had a long life with my family (he passed away last year) and we always thought he had been abused once because he had a limp in his hind leg :o
