I don't hate you for it, I just cannot understand your reasons to think that it is ok to mutilate your pet as such, if there were a medical reason for it , that would be somewhat different,it is totally un-necessary, and why on earth would you do it, because you think it looks nice, ugh that I find repulsive, to put any pet through pain it does not need to please your eyes,I just find that totally disgusting, that is how I feel and I make no apologies for my strong view., and I feel proud to be part of a country that see's it as such and therefore has banned it and made it illegal.
