Sad Something I'm Disgusted By

Have any of you seen the ads for 'Bonsai Kitten?' It's the most twisted and cruel thing I've ever seen. At first, 'Bonsai Kitten' sounds like something cute, but if you know what it is, you will be repulsed and disgusted. Myself as a cat-lover, I am horrified. Even if you don't like cats, I think you will agree that no living thing should be treated like this.

At a very young age, small cats are given large doses of muscle relaxant, (like Valium) and then they are subsequently stuffed into jars. I don't mean this as a term for anything else. The drugged-up kittens are stuffed into jars.

As the kitten grows, it's skeleton grows into the shape of the jar. (Most of the jars I have seen the pictures of are cubic in shape.) It's a painful process, as the bones need to grow warped in order to fit. The jars have small holes in them for the cat to eat/drink, defecate and urinate out of. The cats never get the opportunity to move. They stay in the jar for the remainder of their lives.

In some cases, the owners let the cat out of the jar (Usually by smashing the jar.) The cat is so weak and anemic from lack of movement and strength development in the muscles it can barely move, let alone manage with the odd development of the skeletal structure, forever warped in the shape of the container.

Is that absolutely hideously disgusting or what? There is a website, still in operation. The pictures are not graphic, but I believe the very idea to be repulsive and appalling that someone would condone the treatment of animals this way. The address is http://www.bonsaikitten.com.

Unsure

I'm not sure if it is... Then again, it's quite feasible. Laws would prohibit that... Wouldn't they?

What a fu**ing bad joke.
Who ever made that web site is an idiot and has a complete lack of judgement or/and intelligence.
For those who don't care about animal rights, thats to bad, but i believe that every living creature has rights and animal abuse is nothing to joke about...
I'm just expression my opinion here and i wrote an email to the person who is or was running the web page and i think all of you should do the same : [email protected]
I know this was a so called "joke" but its wrong and it should stop.
What a bad joke.

Same here. You can never be sure enough though...
If it is for real, I can't imagine why legal authorities would let that go on this long. The site has been around for quite a while.

"Bonsai Kitten" is a site that purports to be "dedicated to preserving the long lost [Oriental] art of body modification in housepets" (by raising them inside jars so that they remain small even when mature and their bodies take on the contours of the vessel used). It's actually a bit of fictional humor put up just before the end of the year 2000 by some MIT grad students to satirize "the human belief of nature as commodity" and to "punish the hypocritical and easily offended by upsetting them, and to amuse those who understand."


personally, I think you have to be completely stupid to believe that.
You probably think "orientals" are exotic too. LOL, those weird asians so different from us

ROFL
