You don't need to kill the animal. He just needs a little behavior adjustment. Here's a device that should do the trick.

"you People". You'd have made a really shitty caveman. Now run along and Protest Disney for that whole "Old Yeller" thing. When you write up the "I hate Iowanian" article for your website, be sure to quote me on this: "Suk Mah Baows". Now, get along with your stomping off like a 13 year old girl-fit. If more of you Utopian Dipshits would have grown up on a farm, maybe you too, would have learned that sometimes, even though its not pleasant, the kindest act you can do for an animal is to shoot it. |

whata dilema......Dareth you eliminate Rocky racoon, to save the life of Felix and Garfield?
what a conundrum. End a life to save a life? oh the choices.... I know, catch Rocky the Racoon and move him to a "no kill shelter". Better wear some non-leather gloves, and a padded safe transportation cage with adequate ventilation. |

Without reading the whole thread, which would undoubtedly psychologically scar me and drive up my therapy costs significantly, I think there's a big difference between mercy killing an injured animal and killing a pet that's misbehaving.

I just offered the non-kill shelter as an alternative. I don't recall going animal rights crazy on anyone

Animals are NOT=People
that wasn't really directed at you cha.
rainman.......When I grew up, if the "dog of the month" were to as much as growl at a visitor...It went "away". There are alot of levels of Misbehavior, and I know its probably against the grain, but I think that sometimes, it is a perfectly viable option. Not long ago, my dog, who I spend alot of time dinking around with, usually let go along when I go somewhere(not work related) was having a problem...Severe shit attacks, and dominated my house twice...............un-acceptable. I took him to the vet, and as they were writing up the $150 bill for the "guess and expensive food".....he started to talk about "surgical options"..at which Point I stopped him and said "I like my dog. He's a good dog and I have alot of time invested in him, but the Value of his life is $200, and I'll put him down before I spend more than that" I wouldn't enjoy it, I wouldn't like it, but I'll be damned if I'll be one of the people that spend $1k+ to get my dog worked on. I know others do, and thats their choice and I respect it. I'm probably just less sensitive after growing up, seeing the things I saw on the farm. many times, the kindest thing was to put an animal down. Sometimes born too small( runt pigs) would get chewed to death by the others if you didn't give them a whack. Like I said....nature, is a cruel Bitch. |

Yeah, the medical care thing is a whole different topic, too. There are a lot of different philosophies there, and to be honest I don't think any single one is superior to the others.
I worry about this as my cats get older. I'm a big softie, but at what point would I say, "That's too much money."? I just hope when it happens that it's an easy and obvious decision.

I think you should auction the cat off here on the planet , and box him up and ship him to whom ever was the highest bidder, so that no one has to hear of the cat being killed, and you make alittle money and are rid of carpet ruining furball! Problem solved
