The Minkey Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Sabrina from Putney is getting rid of this 2yr old cat because "MY DAUGHTER WANTS A DOG FOR XMAS!". FFS! How long before the puppy becomes boring too? Animals aren't accessories to be disposed of on a whim. http://www.gumtree.com/p/pets/female-cat-absoulte-free/112800619 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26459-getting-rid-of-cat-because-daughter-wants-a-dog-for-xmas/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
edcam Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 People like this should be banned from owning pets. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26459-getting-rid-of-cat-because-daughter-wants-a-dog-for-xmas/#findComment-588376 Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodrot Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 do you spend your life looking for cat related stuff to be outraged by?

DulwichFox Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 A dog requires a lot more looking after than a cat. Will require a lot of exercise. People should NEVER buy any pet as a Christmas present for a child. Fox.

The Minkey Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Sabrina from Putney seems exactly the sort of selfish cow who helps populate animal shelters with unwanted pets. Full marks for honesty though, most people trying to offload an animal because they've tired of it are embarrassed enough to be a little creative with the excuse they give for wanting rid. Anyway, I hear cat in question is going to a good home tomorrow. Sad about the dog who'll be taking her place though. Woodrot: Do you spend your life finding things to make snide comments about? Does it make you feel better about yourself?

woodrot Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 How can the topic of animals being sold/ given away generate such vitriol on such a regular basis ? There is less hate on the Various Jimmy Saville paedogeddon threads than for animals being moved on.The levels of monothought idiocy I see on here reminds me of those dark days when I came into prolonged contact with ALF poltroons - and thats hardly complimentary.Heres a basic pyscological testWhich of the following sums up your outlook ?a) the small pictureb) the big picturec) Kittens Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26459-getting-rid-of-cat-because-daughter-wants-a-dog-for-xmas/#findComment-588482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
edcam Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 The point is (re this thread) that if you think pets are disposable creatures (i.e. I'm bored with my cat, so I'm going to get rid of it and get a dog) then you are an idiot who shouldn't be keeping pets. Simple really. I don't need to take your pyscological (sic) test to know that.woodrot Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> How can the topic of animals being sold/ given> away generate such vitriol on such a regular basis> ?

woodrot Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 The point has been missed - threads like this have little to do with the animal itself or even the ethics of pet keeping on a holistic level.

Ted Max Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I've never had a cat or a dog, mainly because I didn't know you could pick one up secondhand for a quid. I do now, though, thanks to the OP.

The Minkey's post is hardly a hateful diatribe.

Chillaxed Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Maybe Sabrina loves the cat and is reluctantly selling her because her super-demanding daughter insists on getting a dog. Maybe the exclamation mark signifies exasperation and a Mum at the end of her tether. So not selfish then. Just saying.

bonniebird Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Just say NO to the little sweetheart, its a good word, especially in this case, animals are not something to be given away coz you can't be asked or your little brat wants another type FFS, makes me sick Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26459-getting-rid-of-cat-because-daughter-wants-a-dog-for-xmas/#findComment-588513 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abysmally selfish, although having said that, the cat may be better of with someone who will look after it properly.
