Picture of cat’s tail sticking out of bloody garbage disposal unit
WARNING – UNPLEASANT IMAGE – Is this a sick joke? Is it photoshopped? It must be. It looks very realistic. It is shocking. There is no information and bizarrely it is categorized as a news photo on this website under the title: Dying Cat Mercifully Put Down Garbage Disposal. I understand that the site where it is published is known for this sort of prank so I’ll take that as confirmation it is fake. However, I think it is going too far as a prank. It is demeaning to the domestic cat and could encourage abuse.

Who is the nob doing all the thumbs down? and I concur that website is going too far and I am not going to share it on FB.
🙂 he is a cat hating troll who spends too much time clicking on thumbs down. A sad individual.
Crass Photoshop job I hope. The Onion looks increasingly desperate these days.
I wasn’t aware of the onion’s reputation until this. Gone too far in my opinion. I hate to see this sort of thing as it is demeaning to the cat. It belittles the cat for me. It is a joke too far.
Totally agree. This sort of horrific image adds nothing to us as a species.
Tail is too big. A cat won’t fit in a garbage disposal. This is sad, even for the onion.
Yes, agreed. The tail would be limp too. Thanks Anne.
Yikes! That came off The Onion, and they seem to be into shock postings. They need to be boycotted for this kind of stuff.
Yes, it is designed to shock. I don’t think should be allowed when it concerns animal abuse even if it is fake.
