So angry and sad at my friends cat being kicked to death (TRIGGER WARNING: WILL UPSET YOU ALL)

[Inappropriatefemale]

I have just found out today that last night my friends cat was kicked to death in a park in Edinburgh and I am furious, sad and want to get my hands on the culprit sharpish

Her cat also happens to be the mother of my cat who is now nearly 18 months. Her cat and my cat are the absolute double and I can’t help but think of my cat when I heard this, her cat was so friendly, loving and cuddly and I am so so sad, how on earth could you kick a cat to death? The fact that after the first kick the cat couldn’t run away makes me sick, she is going to the police and hopefully there was CCTV near the park, I have asked my brother, whose friend it is also, to share this information on Facebook (I don’t have it) and hopefully get this sick bastard.

I absolutely loathe animal cruelty and I swear to god if I ever get my hands on this person then I’ll do to them what they did to this poor, little defenceless animal. I have been crying and I am so glad that my cat is a house cat, you just cannot trust other human beings.

If it’s a child/teen that did it (not making sweeping statement but it’s more likely to be kids that are parks late at night) then is this possibly a killer in the making?

I just posted because I am so sad and obviously it’s my cats mother, and she had just had a little a couple of months ago so I doubt her kittens are even old enough yet to be left without a mother, wtf is wrong with people????

This is my little tortoiseshell cat and she is the double of her mother.

Awful. I can't and doubt I ever will get my head around why some people are like this. Evil fuckers.

A little update folks...

I’m sorry I haven’t posted for ages but I lost my phone and I wasn’t able to get into the email account that’s connected to my MN account because I had to use a really crappy phone that I keep for emergencies should I lose my phone (I have left 2 on a train and 1 on a bus before and god know what’s happened to the countless other ones I’ve had!) and it had no space in it for me to download the protonmail app and so I haven’t used MN since November, but I got a new phone for Xmas and so I’m back!

It turns out that it isn’t for definite that the cat was kicked to death, apparently it was run over by a car and the vet said that her injuries could have been caused by being kicked to death but it was most likely a car that caused her injuries & then death.

The lady with the cat can be a drama queen and so I think this is why she told us that her cat was kicked to death, it’s still so sad that her cat died but I feel marginally better knowing that it was most likely run over by accident, and not kicked to death on purpose.

I feel like an idiot now but I wanted to come back here and let you all know that Edinburgh is safe for cats and that there’s not a madman or madwoman going about killing them!
