    No I will not "lighten up." When was the last time you were locked in an envorionment where you could not see nor breathe?
    None of us are laughing at animal cruelty, we're laughing at the stupidity of that guy.

    The device was partly made of clear plexiglass, and can't be airtight or it would not have worked for its purpose.

    I love animals, I'm glad to see this idiot got fined $400 for the animal abuse, normally the punishment is far less. (I doubt this was the only time he put the cat in it, he probably got a regular kick seeing the cat through the clear sides of the bong.)

    BUT people do overreact to these things. Bottom line is the cat is fine, it may not have suffered in any way at all. Of course they are attempting to seek evidence for further conviction, that's what they do, and it doesn't necessarily mean it's out of concern for the cat.

    The only sign of suffering is that "It cowers in the back of its cage like it's a little bit afraid" Of course it's afraid, it's been forcibly removed from its home and owner.

    I have a cat and he's the most affectionate and laid back thing in the world. But when the doorbell rings he flies upstairs to hide. He doesn't trust strangers. Imagine how he'd react if a stranger forcibly removed him and put him in a cage. I think he too would be "a little bit afraid." Does that reflect on me in any way?

    (As for the Bonsai Cat thing, that was 100% wind up, no animals were hurt during the making of the spoof website.)

    Yeah, okay. I see nothing even remotely humorous in the terrorization of a kitten. How would you know if the cat is fine? But that is not the point. What I read is that a grown man high on illegal drugs locked a baby animal in a tiny smoke filled box. What the F is funny about that? Holy crap! You people argue about morals yet you have the gall to joke about torturing a kitten? I don't even like cats but I would twist this asshole's head off if I saw this happening.

    No, really. Lighten up. Reserve your rage for the people who are really doing these senseless things, and talk about razors here.

    we're laughing at the stupidity of the guy, he put it in there not to torture the cat but to mellow it out. If he had malicious intentions all along (he very may well have meant to harm the kitten and he just lied) then it wouldn't be funny. The fact that he could be that stupid makes a lot people of laugh.

    Yeah, this is bulls*t. I'd love to knock that f*er who did this out! Hurting a defenseless animal is the lowest.

    I don't care what kind of drugs someone does. As long as it doesn't hurt anyone except themselves.

    I am! cats are my sworn enemy. they hate me, I hate them. their suffering puts a smile on my face whenever I see it. not unlike the destruction of the environment, which I also support. here in Texas we are working hard at the grassroots level to have the environment outlawed.
