Moosmom, you hit the nail SO on the head! Im a student in southern California and working really hard to help reform laws and make harsher penalties for any form of abuse. You and I have the EXACT same ideas!

I want (real) breeders to be specially lisenced and monitered. Kittens may not be adopted out until shots, altering, and complete checkup of the new home.

I am so sick of seeing things like this. Makes me just see red.

My roomie and I do kitten rescue all the time here. A few months ago, my grandmother found a group of feral kittens in her yard. We wanted to give them homes so we socialized them all. 5 in all. Ended up getting a couple adopted out and there were two that no one seemed to love! So my roomie works as a local pub and decided that they could use another bar cat. Their older one passed away.

So the two black fluffy babies lived at the bar and got fed every 5 minutes with customers feeding them steak, chicken, etc. Im a rescuer and I even thought this was a GREAT home. Jagermeister and Khalua. Well, one day, some *@#$! came into the bar. Jager jumped onto this guys lap like the kitten was so used to doign with NORMAL HUMANS who pet her. He got so mad, he picked her up, snapped her neck and threw her over the fence.

To make this story shorter, the man got what he deserved for what he did to my little Jager and Jager is now burried in a little area on my parents 10 acres with all my pets I grew up with.

The point is - we need harsh harsh penalties for outright abuse and murder. ONly a matter of time before this man does this to a human.
