ALL THAT FOR A CAT?!?!?!?!?!?
The kid should be congratulated for feeding a member of an endangered species
But seriously though, I think that the cat's owners are over reacting. I know a lot of kids who are cruel to animals. Here are some stories I've heard (and they are true):
- A cousin of mine almost fried a parrot in the microwave... He said the parrot was cold, and he was trying to warm it up

- This kid I know used to kick his dog in the nuts whenever he saw it. OUCH!
- One of my friends used to tie a string to a chick's neck, and whirl it around in the air.
- Another of my friends once flushed a chick down the toilet.
- Yet another friend tied a chick to a helium-filled ballon and let it go.
Hmmm... come to think about it, I got some pretty sick friends
They just didnt know right from wrong back then...
