What is the cruelest thing you can do to a cat?

[Deja Q]

Cats have a penchant for lying around, basking in the sun, enjoying life aimlessly but filled with play, with not a care in the world. (more humans should follow their example.)

So, what's the worst that we can do to them? :evilgrin:

Two choices here are false, but I wanted to pad the amount of choices. Can you 6uess wh1ch ones? :D

1. Lock them in a room with the TV turned to one of Chimpy's "speech's"

My boys are addicted to them and they would go crazy.

6. Other...

Invite my 3 year old son over to play. He loves our cat to death. Literally sometimes! He is just playing and hugging and loving the cat, but jeesh, I am amazed our cat has survived.

(However, when the cat is tired, he always gets in the 3 year old's bed and sleeps with him. He must not mind the torture that much because that cat loves him!)

7. Make them watch "Fiddler On The Roof"

[HEyHEY]

8. Crush their skull with a telephone?

That's be pretty cruel.

9. WTF

whaaaaaat

[put out]

10. I am sure the poster meant "make them talk on the telephone".

And then set them up on a conference call, at someone else's' expense. Then teach them how to answer the telephone, then teach them how to take messages. Then withhold catnip, unless these tasks are completed to the poster's satisfaction.

Right? I'm still working on it with my cat. She is a failure, but she still gets the catnip.

11. As a cat owner and cat lover, I have to say

Put them in a toilet, close the lid, and flush repeatedly

Put them in the washing machine

Put them in the dryer



Those are pretty cruel things to do to a cat...

12. In my case, own one

No thanks. Tried it once, never again.

13. Have doors.

They so hate doors. When you let them out they linger a moment, as if to say, "I like it THIS way---open!---get a clue, lady!"

Live in a rainy or snowy climate. They still want to go out on patrol but rain and snow really annoy them.

Play with the dog. The dog gets into the spirit of things and tries to share it with the cat.

Play any game with the cat, in which the cat plays the role of mouse. They're very poor sports about that.
