The Animal Welfare Act 2006 Is Very Effective

Do you know that the present government is about to amend the act that will do no good. Why?????

A life for a life!(if it is deliberate)

I beleive I swhared the expierience I had with my neighbor who is a racoon hater. Now my feral cat, whom I call Mr. Grey is not showing up for his food every day like normal. My feelings are that the cruel neighbor who for some reason felt that I shouldnt be feeding the poor soul did something to him to discourage hom from coming to our yard. Yesterday I saw him down by a park close to our house. I had not seen him for 3 days. I called to him and he recognized my voice and stopped to look at me. I went home and called him to come and eat but he never came. I know he could hear me at the park which is only a few houses away from ours. He finally came later that day and when I went out on the porch to talk to him like I normally do, he got very skittish and ran away and didnt return. My other neighbor Bill, another animal lover like me, also thinks he did something to discourage him from coming, such as shooting him with a BB gun. I hate cruel people such as my mean neighbor. Now we have to sneak to put food out for our cooney friends, who now have babies. They are such a joy for us to watch. Especially the babies. They are so cute. We used to love to have them come up close to us to eat dry cat food that we would place on the ground. We even got to recognize serveral of them and they trusted us enough to bring their little babies by us. Now all that enjoyment has been taken away from us by one cruel, heartless, person since the landlord came and asked us not to feed them anymore. He also told the neighbor not to shoot at them with BBS. He better not say anything about the squirels, but Im sure its only a matter of time before he finds an excuse to bitch about them visiting Bill and my bird feeders. I put food in them for the squirrels because my cats, especially my Savannah love to watch them. So now when we sit outside we have to sneak to put our food out for our cooney friends. Some people are just animal haters like you said.

These morons who try to justify their actions by saying the animal was doing this or that make me sick. They do it because there is something not quite right with them; they have something missing; perhaps a soul or a conscience. They do it because they get a kick out of inflicting pain on a defenceless creature.

That man who drowned the squirrel; what a load of rubbish! It died quickly my eye! It would have struggled and panicked as it took its last breath! Top marks to the RSPCA for bringing the prosecution! I only worry about how many animals die that we don't about; these people are usually sly and cunning.

No we have no right to judge whether an animals behaviour is right or wrong. They don't judge us do they? No, they love us unconditionally despite (unfortunately) all we do to them.

I dislike spiders and I fear them but if I see one in the house despite my fear I trap it in a glass (so I can see it in case it tries to escape!!!) and put it outside. I would never kill anything.

What also concerns me greatly is if people torture animals what would they do to a child if they got the chance? or a vulnerable person?

So next time you see an act of cruelty please report it you could save someones life. Think of John Venables; tortured young animals then moved onto a young innocent child and more recently (thanks to our pathetic laws that seem to care more about the perpetrator than the victim) he is allegedly involved in child pornography. 'Lock him up and throw away the key' springs to mind.

I forgot to say that as a baby I was attacked by a squirrel while sitting inside the home. It bit me on the leg and I have the scar to this day. I do not have a grudge against or fear of squirrels. I treat them as I would all animals - with respect.
