    I ALWAYS ask for a donation or adoption fee of at least $50. And get everything in writing. Laboratories won't pay that kind of money for a lab animal. It happens, and whenever I see an ad in the newspaper "Free to good home" I call the people and warn them. Most of them haven't a clue and are glad that I told them.

    There are some shelters in Michigan that would sell cats and dogs to laboratories. Ecorse and another town were two that did. It disgusts me!!

    I know of some labs that will go even up to $75. I would never ask for under $100 for ANY animal.

    That poor cat. People are so sick and twisted these days. If that person is capable of doing that to an animal, imagine what it may possibly do to a human in the future.....

    Sweetie - I have heard of it happening a lot, that a cat WILL get hit by a car, and try to crawl home...and die on the way.

    My sister's tabby did that years and years ago, and I have heard of that here.

    Poor kitty might have been deliberately killed...but it could have been a car, that's all I am saying.

    That's so horrible. I never let my dogs out on halloween. I'm afraid some stupid kids will do something to them.

    I heard that some shelters will not let people adopt black cats before halloween because people want them for halloween only.

    It's horrible. Of course you don't know what happend to this specific cat, but there are certainly some other Halloween victims, if not this one

    I am happy that we do not really celebrate Halloween in my country.

    Poor kitty.

    My parents hustle all the cats inside during the week of Halloween, not just the day of.

    The local shelters also refuse to adopt out black cats around Halloween.

    I know because if the cat was hit by a car, it would be bleeding from everywhere or something other than just have a few bleeding slits in the back and a bashed head

    Here we go again?
    Um anyways, just because it wasnt bleeding everywhere dosent mean it
    wasnt hit by a car. It could have had internal bleeding.
    Im not saying your wrong but i dont think you should jump to the worst
    conclusion without knnowing the truth.

    She wasnt there. She said she just saw a cat dead in someones backyard
    And assumed that it was because of Halloween and that someone killed it.
