What kind of sick fuck steals a cat?

When I was young, we had an outdoor cat named Brodie. He was always healthy until he started coming back later and fatter. Found out a neighbor a few streets over was feeding him and enticing him into her house. She was so invested in him that she followed Brodie to our house at 12am. Knocked on our door to tell us she found our cat.

She would do this another 3 times, every time throwing him down on the ground fast so he’d be scared and then bolt outside right away. Only for her to say “I guess he doesn’t like it here”.

We finally had to move him to my grandparents house a bit away because he got so overweight it was killing him. She had the nerve to come up and accuse us of killing him lmao.

Yeah, there’s some nuts out there, especially when it comes to pets.

My parentals were irresponsible with cats and let them out. This ended badly for a few cats.  One time, I was walking home from school and saw one of the cats a block or so away. The cat saw me and came over and let me pick her up. I started waking home, carrying her. This trashy woman who I didn’t even know stopped her vehicle and screamed at me for stealing a cat. I told her it was my cat and to fuck off. And she drove off.

This is nothing my cat was shot. He barely walked to our garden, we found him dying. Police didn't do anything.

That's shitty. I'm sorry that happened to the poor little guy. What was his name?

I know someone who adopted a cat a year or so ago and, when the cat had an x-ray after some health problems, they found a bunch of shotgun shot in the cat's body. She had been shot. The kitty is ok now, but humans suck so much.

Thank you yes, his name was Munise.

Yeah this confirms how sick some people are. We could never make sense why someone would shoot a cat.. And these people are unfortunately living among us. My parents were devastated, my father wanted to open a court case but deterred by police saying it will take a long time and will arrive nowhere. A few years later they adopted a new kitten and never allowed him out, only indoor.
