That was really mean. I get really defensive when animals are mistreated, you remember my reaction to the Ring Pop commercial, and I still havent heard from that company. If I saw them throwing or doing anything to harm and animal, right away I would go up to them and yell. Of course they wouldn't listen to me, though, because of my age....SIGH.....
About the pillow thing..
My friend Faith used to have a hamster (before Angel) named Mia. Mia was torured by her (she was about five or six, she's a lot smarter now). She used to put Mia (aww, this tiny little thing!) on a pillow, and pound the other end of the pillow, and the thing went flying!! Sometimes it even hit the cieling! One day I was over, and she said she wanted to do something funny with Mia, and I thought she meant put a cute little hamster hat on her or something. But she did not put a hat on her, she put her on the pilliow, and slammed on it, and she hit the cieling! While she was hysterical laughing, I was petting the hamster and kissing her and saying that everything was going to be okay (I am a few years older than Faith, and have loved animals all of my life). I thne told her it was NOT funny and that she should stop that instant. Well about a month later I got a call from her mom saying that Mia had died. She said that she hit the cieling too hard and couldn't handle it. That was it. I didn't speak to her for another year. When she was ten, she got a new hamster (Angel), and I was scared that she would do the same thing again. She didn't and she said that she would be nice and kind to her. Well, Angel lived a year, but a long happy one! And she died because she was eaten, and not anything Faith would have done. It made me so mad that she had lied to me, and then actually KILLED the hamster. From then on, I was really concerned AND angry whenever anyone EVER abused an animal, including the Ring Pop company (well, that wasn't really abuse), and my sister.
