I saw something really horrible earlier, so this is a trigger warning.

I was watching the news earlier and they showed a piece about online groups who are posting cat torture videos, horrible, distressing pictures of kittens being tormented and adult cats.

What is wrong with people? If i saw someone doing something like this, then the red mist would come down and I'd be channelling my inner Boudicca and woe betide the torturers.

  • Thank you for the warning.

    I scrolled past your post because I saw the news headlines earlier. From your post description, and a flash of a couple of words in the body of your text, I can tell it is about unimaginable suffering. I hope my response is related to what you have said.

    Although I support animal charities, and animal welfare practices, I cannot bear to see or read about some aspects of their work. I still have vivid recollections of some of the things I’ve seen from years ago.

    I fail to see the difference between physical suffering in animals, and physical suffering in humans. Suffering is never good in any situation. The government needs to tighten up on all aspects of animal welfare and lower the threshold to allow harsher prison sentences in all cases involving cruelty.

    Veterinarians, veterinary nurses, animal welfare officers and carers, have my admiration for the necessary work they do.
