    I don't think there is any more violence than there was say, 30 years ago, or in previous points in history, but we certainly are more informed now that we were then. After all, would this have made any national news then? No, likely only people in her town and ones surrounding it would know. I hope it is not desensitizing us, and I hope they find and prosecute the responsible party. Poor kitty!

    I didn't click on the link. I can't take it. I just will never understand violence against animals. It's so senseless. RIP, little kitty and peace to your human.
    Blessings,

    Sorry about posting this one. I did go back and view the video. It was just an interview with the owner. Still very upsetting.

    I totally agree with this.

    I saw this on the 10:00 news as it happened in the suburb next to mine. I felt so sorry for this woman, as well as the man who found the poor thing. People have to start taking animal cruelty more seriously because anyone who would torture an animal wouldn't think twice about abusing a human in some way, especially a vulnerable one such as a battered wife or a child. Makes me sick to my stomach......

    Working with the public as my job, at an animal shelter, and news stories like these have honestly made me hate mankind. I know not all people are bad, many many many aren't but I WILL NEVER EVER EVER understand how you can kill an innocent animal, person, whatever, EVER. I will never understand why dogs and cats are abused, some people are just wired wrong I suppose.

    It amazes me how some people can live with themselves.

    Unfortunately, we see and hear about the bad in people more than the good....I truly believe the majority of people are good, kind, and responsible, but there is a small portion of society I believe to be truly evil....and that is the only word that even fits....the devil has definately positioned himself inside their souls....
