To feel sorry for the cats living in prison?

[Sallystyle]

Now watching "Inside Death Row" with Trevor.

I feel very sorry for the poor cats who live in a cell, especially when they are in lock down.

Not really. They're very loved.

Can they not get out between the bars?

I was just going to ask that Frustrated, my cat can squeeze through almost any gap and he's huge.

One of the prisoners said the cats find it hard when they are on lock down as they want to get out too.

But I never thought of the bars and them being able to squeeze out!

not watching but if they can roam about i would think its a good life

loads of attention unlike some cats that dont see their owners for hour on end

as the prisoners dont have much to do i should think the cat gets lots of attention

lots of indoor cats are very happy with never going outside. especially if they have never been out in the first place.

i had no idea prisoners were aloud cats

i think its a great idea

I bet they can squeeze out, how else will they be able to get into the neighbouring cell to do a poo?

There are cats? Like in prison break?

My cat never goes outside. Do the death row inmates have floor to ceiling bars or is it more like cubicles?

Mine are not allowed outside either.

I had the impression that they were inside the small all day.

So IABU it seems :)

The cell*

Perhaps the cats are not pets, but have been put in the slammer for some sort of misdemenour.

I was thinking about this! I think if they have been there since they were little kittens then they would adjust ok, any older than 12 weeks or so when they went it and it could be a problem. In USA a lot of cats are euthanased as strays so think if they are rescue kittens then not a bad thing.

do they have litter trays in the cells? i'm picturing all these cats being let out to a communal litter tray room every morning and them all giving a massive sigh of relief!

Snort

Bet them nasty Siamese cats from Aristocats are in there.

And TopCat. He was a PITA.

I feel a lot sorrier for strays who have no one to care for them and irregular meals.

So you're watching a programme about people who are about to be legally murdered by the state & you're concerned for the cats?

Do they take the cats with them, pharaoh style when their time comes?

Do the cats throw themselves on the electric chair & commit sati when their owner goes down?

If not YABU.

haha at the bad cats

I have an indoor cat, he was in a rescue centre for over a year and he just doesn't like going far! He goes out twice a day to poo. He's fine, he could go out but he doesn't want to!

Justread... I am completely against the death penalty and felt bad for most of them.

I admitted IABU as well lol

I only felt sorry for the cats when the prisoner said they were in lock down for 24 hours and it was hard on his poor cat because he wanted to get out but he was stuck there too with him.

Then he mentioned that they were once in 24 hour lock down for 11 months straight. So I assumed that the cat was then too as he made out that the cat couldn't go out when he was in lock down.

That is what made me feel bad :)

I bet they can squeeze out, how else will they be able to get into the neighbouring cell to do a poo? good point pelvic

Sorry about the awfully worded post above, typing one handed.

If they could squeeze out why did he say that the cat found it hard when they were in lock down?

hmmm

Am totally anti- death penalty but very hard to hear about the crime the ginger bearded one committed and not understand where the victims' family would be coming from. The fact the he's so clearly remorseful and sickened by what he did is a perfect advert for life imprisonment being more of a punishment if that's what you're after. As for the cats, meh..
