Was Tiger gin trapped by the leg before Kristen Lindsey put an arrow through his head?

The hind right leg of Tiger, the cat shot with a bow and arrow by Dr Kristen Lindsey, is bloody over most of its length. This has been noticed before but has anyone speculated why his leg is covered in blood? By the way, I don’t believe the leg has been severed because the paw appears below a leaf in my opinion. Wrong? Please leave your opinion in a comment.

There are only two reasonable answers it seems to me.

  1. Blood from the head wound spilled out and covered the leg. This argument doesn’t really stack up because there is no blood on the head. Also, it appears that soon after Kristen allegedly killed the cat she lifted him up by the arrow for the photo by her mother. There has been speculation that Tiger was alive at the time of the photo. If this happened there would not have been that much blood from the head on any other part of the body.
  2. The right hind leg was caught in a trap (set by Lindsey perhaps)? That is pure speculation. But the leg is very bloody and consistent with being caught in a trap so it is a reasonable suggestion.

It has also been speculated that Lindsey shot Tiger at close range. If that is correct it is, perhaps, reasonable to further speculate that she had trapped the cat in a ‘gin trap’ and then administered the coup de grâce with a bow and arrow at close range.

I have called it a ‘coup de grâce’, which means a mercy killing to end the suffering of a wounded animal. I have been inaccurate. This is because if my suggestion is correct about the trap then it was part of the killing and Tiger was in fact executed having been trapped.

Does anyone have any ideas on this? It is relevant to the story because it will affect her defence as it is potentially a further reflection on her behaviour. It goes to her character.


P.S. Apologies to people who have had enough of the Dr Lindsey saga. I feel it needs to be explored more and there is still considerable interest in it.

  1. WOODY WOODY WOODY! IN HER OWN FB STATEMENT SHE SAID IT WAS HER FIRST BOW KILL!!! HER MOTHER SAID SHE WATCHED HER STALK THE CAT THAT CAME INTO THE YARD WHILE SHE WAS PRCTICING! I would never hurt a human being but I would really like to meet you face to face to understand who or what you are. Your obsession with Michael and Elisa is ridiculous and does not say much about you or your life! So why don’t you get one and stop living vicariously on their coat tails. No one is impressed!

  2. Seth – get your facts straight. There is no defense for this illegal and heinous killing. It is you who is missing some nuts and bolts.

  3. Michael I suggest that you erase this individuals email address (possibly the entire thread). The only thing you are doing by letting his posts thru are potentially filling his pockets by letting the wrong person see this. All it take is one idiot to see his email address to contact him and to support his “business”
    I understand what you were trying to do but I think maybe you should’ve edited his email address beforehand. Besides that it has nothing to do with the case at hand. Other than he’s either one of two things. 1. an individual who sells exotic animals to equally stupid people 2. someone who has a lot of time on his hands to either scam people or just doesn’t have anyone in his life and needs to make up stories in order to gain attention.
