Why Can't We Be Cruel To Cruel Animals?
« on: July 22, 2006, 09:12 PM »

Carnivorous pets like dogs and cats are cruel by nature:
  They love to kill defenseless animals for food.

Carnivoruous wild animals like lions, tigers, and exotic snakes are just the same:
  They kill innocent wild animals for food, and sometimes just for fun.
  They even attack human beings sometimes.

So why do we show them so much love? 
- Why do we complain when people are cruel to these animals?
- Why do we get upset when someone kills a dog or cat for meat, research, or its fur?
- Why don't we feel guilty about killing chickens and cows that haven't hurt anyone?

In summary, why can't we be cruel to cruel animals?  Why do we protect carnivorous pets/animals?

Ever heard of a food chain? no animal kills for fun. animals attack when they feel threatened or when they are hungry, its just a game of survival.

I suggest we also eliminate all non-vegetarian human beings on the Earth since the chickens, rabbits and beef they eat has been taken from killed animals who never did anything to them.

Funny logic.

Cats kill mice for food and sometimes for fun.  Why can't I attack a kitty-cat when I am hungry or bored?

Well, we're on top of the food chain, so does this mean we can do whatever we like with animals?  Cheesy

There are countries in this world were you can go to jail. for killing an animal.
I Will not say am in love with animals but i respect them.
I have a cat and i consider him partly as part of the family.We feed him and care for him. He gose out everyday and always comes back. Sometimes he fights with my kids.

Well we have pets ,wild animals and let me call the rest farm animals.
Dogs and cats are animals you can keep in the house they can almost replace people. Animals are more faithfull than most friends are.

Why would you want to kill animals? If they don't threaten you personally or if it isn't for feeding purposes, you should leave them alone. Although, I hate dogs and cats but I wouldn't in a million years dream of killing them.

so does this mean we can do whatever we like with animals?

 we can't do woteva we like e.g grab a cat by its tail and swing it around in the air like we just don't care but killing an animal for food is justified as long as we respect nature and take into consideration animals that might become extinct if we over-indulge.

@ seun
u also said that cats kill mice for fun, how do u know it was for fun?

We used to have cats at home.  I observed them.

It's common for a mother cat to catch a rat and then bring it to its children to play with.  Playing with a live rat is supposed to sharpen their hunting kills, but really it's for fun.  They just love to play with mice!

It's not as if they are hungry, since we feed them anyway.  They are just cruel by nature!  Cheesy

I'm an animal lover and we can't do whatever we like with them because they are part of the environment, each and every one of them have a purpose to fulfill. If an animal’s purpose is for our nourishment then it should done in an humane way, In the UK, I’ve heard of farmers going to jail for not providing good ventilation in the places where they keep their chickens and not providing warm sleeping areas for the pigs in their farms.

I know I could bite someone that hits a dog in my presence  Cry

I guess the poster of this topic never heard of food chain.If u kill your so called cruel animals,then how do u control the population of animals in the world.How would u feel if gazels and antelope populate the earth to the point where they roam around our cities?Thats what happens when u kill predators.

@niterider
nice point

@seun
i can't believe u ll come up with this nonsensical statement, animals that kill other animals are not cruel, they do that to survive and heck ever heard if "balance of nature". now if a animal kills a human being like at the zoo or something then i guess the animal gets killed to protect other people

vegitarians thats their problem. it will be the end of the world before i give up my wonderful filet mignon
