so confining a cat in an area that's approximately 2ft by 2 ft by 4 foot is animal cruelty? if u have ever had a pet in an animal carrier than HOW DARE YOU!! and the millions of people that do it
Yes. She is going to earn more money through cat-binning than she ever earned in the bank she worked at.
What else?
And that 15 hours is totally because of the neglectful owners of the cat. They went to bed without checking on the welfare of their cat. They found the cat by accident. Headed for the car. Leaving the house without the kitty being secured indoors.The cat was left for 15 hours without water. Animal carriers are used for how log?

"He said he had been going out to his car on Sunday morning when he heard her meowing."
OK, lets see.. sunday morning we will guess 10 am. 15 hours so they dumped the cat off outdoors at 7 am Saturday morn and didnt have a clue kitty kitty was stuck in the wheelie bin a few feet from their front door.
""She is a night cat. We sometimes don't see her in the day unless she comes in for food."
OK so was it friday night when the let the cat outdoors? And by sunday morn they still were not concerned for their cat?
Cat probably thinks its name is kitty kitty and has no idea who Lola is.
Nothing more than a lawn ornament.

They Roam around like little lions, shitting everywhere.
No, they did not expect to find her in a bin. Apparently, they do not expect her to be hit by a car either (note the busy road in front of their flat).wsionynw said:I think it is safe to say they didn't expect to find her in the bin.
No. Some cats in the UK are semi wild/allowed to roam.Capt K said:Cats in the UK are semi wild. They Roam around like little lions, shitting everywhere.
If I own a goat in your neighborhood, do I have a right to let it roam in neighbors yards or out on the street. Is it ok if it jumps on other peoples cars? *in case you are not familiar with goats, they love to climb things.Pinwheel said:I dont think there are many people here with "indoor" cats.
Well, if you were bringing your cat on a Los Angeles to Singapore Flight, say 17 hours.
Miss Bale (I assume she's a Miss) may have contravened US regulations for animals on an air flight. They require that any animal on a flight taking more than 12 hours must be supplied with water. And Food if the journey is over 24 hours.

It was probably thirst rather than any other kind of distress that made the cat start miaowing for help.
I released a cat inadvertently trapped in my Garage many days after I last used it. They are so curious, they will immediately enter any open door, if your back is turned.
Maybe if some technologically savvy shite of a neighbour had been on the ball I would even now be evil cat garage man.
I'd be writing a book with a Million dollar advance.
Why didn't I think of this? :bawl:
Re Cat. (Garage Cat, not Bin Cat) It must have been able to access water, or it would have been raising hell to get out. Cats aren't stupid.
I can't believe the ferocity of the attack on this palpably damaged woman.
Yes. It was wrong.
Yes. She needs help.
Yes. She is going to earn more money through cat-binning than she ever earned in the bank she worked at.

What I find interesting in this thread is that, while I am aware not everyone has pets, I didn't realize just how many people genuinely hate cats. Or just how deeply.
Yes, it does look like a bird cage. But its not. Its for cats.I've seen my fair share of cats, but I've never seen a cat run.
Looks like a Bird cage.
No. It was a pet owner who is taking full responsibility for their cat(s). The other seems to be someone who adopted 2 feral cats.The cat run photographed may belong to an extraordinarily careful cat owner, but they are more likely to be owned by a cat breeder or a person who runs a boarding cattery.
This is exactly the flawed logic I was trying to dispel by using UK examples. Mutt dogs are not exempt from leash laws.Some/many? breeds of pedigree cat are unsuited to running free, but your Common or Garden British moggy has had many centuries to adapt to it.
Nelson will have had a few on his ship, and I doubt he had a cat run on board.
Please review the link about why people choose cats.Cats also have the habit of training new people to be their owners.
Some cats have a few people who think they own it.
Do you think maybe the aussie cats are direct descendents of brit cats? Yet aussies have laws (with more coming online each year) requiring cat owners to act responsibly.Milkweed, you don't understand British cats.
They do as they please.
Ah, cant even be bothered to get up to let your cat in/out. So are you one of these two groups?wsionynw said:Milkweed, if you have a catflap then your cat can choose to spend time indoors or outdoors.
This is why so many people hate cats. People are not born hating cats, dogs, etc. to use a common theme; the origins of hate. They have bad experiences with irresponsible pet owners who often use the excuse "cats need to be free" to relieve themselves of the responsibility to provide a safe environment for their pet. The reality is when you let your cat roam, you expose it to people who dont like cats, create additional hostility, along with all the other issues that free ranging cats endure.wsionynw said:What has traffic, poo in gardens, etc got to do with a woman throwing a cat into a bin?
The cats have chosen because you allowed them too under the misguided idea that it is good for the cat/what the cat needs. Additionally, you have experienced the death of your pet and continued to endanger them under the false impression this is good for cats.wsionynw said:Since you started on the subject I can tell you my cats have always been rescue cats, and they have chosen to spend time indoors and outdoors. Some have been run over, sure, but they at least enjoyed being well fed, looked after and free to explore while they were still alive. Better than spending a miserable life in a cat shelter, no?
And that 15 hours is totally because of the neglectful owners of the cat. They went to bed without checking on the welfare of their cat.
Reality is not all cats want to roam, it is learned behavior.
