Tragedy Cat Food

You do realize the cows, pigs, chickens, lambs etc. you eat aren't exactly placed in five star hotels and pampered all day until execution...

Apparently, you're the fucking retard. Cows, chickens, pigs, and other animals that you eat are treated the same, if not worse, than these cats.

Durferent<-- is a retard
we eat animals all the time and we probably treat them the same as those asians. the only difference is the U.S. has peta and all these laws against beating animals...they all going to the same place UR fat ass stomach

Well that depends if you have Kobe beef or not.

;_;

STFU Petafag. Animals are delcious.

I like how most of the replies here just assume that anyone who comments against this practice doesn't care about the treatment of other livestock animals.

oops didn't mean to reply to this comment

Don't you think that's kind of fucked up? I mean, yeah, every day cows, pigs, and whatever else are beaten and killed. They're fucking retarded animals. Why don't you try domesticating a cow or pig and tell us how that goes?

What was that, Anon?

cow and pigs ARE domesticated in fact pigs are smarter and a cat or a dog. I still fell sorry for the cats though I mean if you eat cat fine, but boiling it alive WTF?

It's cruel to cats cause they're actually cute. If its ugly then there's no problem eating it though.

I agree, anyone that says its ok to boil a live cat needs to die being reaped by a horse, gogle it XD.

Those cats certainly aren't cute. They're pretty damn ugly actually, which makes the rest of cats evolve to be cuter

anyone ever had crab or fish boiled alive? stop bitching.

Glad someone around here has some sense.

Iluna didn't say "their culture is shit"--only that the practice is terrible, which it IS. Not a single mention was made of the fact that it's China, or any derogatory remark made about their culture.

So quit being so bloody butthurt and drawing conclusions where there are none to be found just because your asiaphile pride was hurt.

Chicken is roughly have the same treatment, you boil them to remove their feather easily. Stop buying your meat at supermarket, go to the fresh market and see how they kill the animal effectively.

Lobsters can't feel pain jackass. Maybe you PETA fags should waste your time protecting less delicious animals.

It's boiled alive, doesn't mean it's boiled conscious. Learn how to read.

true but at the same time, we chop off the heads of chickens while they are still alive while some places just clobber the chicken. Also we are essentially doing the same thing to fish, taking them out of the water, placing them on a chopping board as they are suffocating and cut off their heads. Either way food will be treated as food and btw lobsters crabs and clams have it worse, they're not even clubbed stupid before being thrown into a pot of hot water

What if you have an overpopulation of cats? If you don't start controlling the population, one part of that society's going to have to give out to suit the rest.

Iono about you, but I'd rather have us clubbing cats then clubbing humans.

And besides, if you're talking about efficiency, the best way would be to just throw the cat into the pot and not put in the extra effort of stunning them. If you don't want to eat it, you might as well toss them into an incinerator then to save time and space.

I don't know why, but I keep thinking about Dwarf Fortress.

there not clubbing them to be nice, there doing it to shut them up...

Obviously your first response to seeing things like this would be to feel disgust. Beating an animal over the head and then boiling it alive, that's gonna raise a few lights... because you've been taught that "knocking an animal senseless and boiling them alive and eating them" is bad (except when it's a certain animal. then it's okay).

If you're going to feel bad about those cats, you need to feel bad for all the pigs and cows and chickens and X and Y and Z that are killed and cooked in similar fashions (here in AMERICA, believe it or not). Heck, we boil all sorts of animals alive. Lots of fish, for that matter.

Everyone in a society like ours will eventually become desensitized to the events that take place outside of our lives. For normal people, all that is important is what is happening around them. We all understand that cows are prepped and slaughtered, but we don't care. All we care is that we get the meat, so we can keep living. Every day, people are killed. To us, it's just another event that has nothing to do with us (unless it does have something to do with us. close friend, relative. then it's a big deal. but otherwise, who cares?).

For most Americans, we see cats as a pet. Something to be loved and played with. The thought of killing something like a cat seems completely disgusting to most people. Yet we have no problem with the slaughter of cows, pigs, chickens, etc... because they have nothing to do with us, I imagine.

If you're going to be smart about this, then you have basically one option... in the words of George Carlin: "you either care about every living thing or you don't care about any of them."

>> It’s wrong, many people agree it’s wrong.
The same could be said for the opposing side. Many people agree it's not wrong. Because food is food. Heck, the 10000 people buying them a day don't seem to have a problem with it.

I don't think it's okay to knock an animal unconcious and then boil it alive... I also don't think it's okay to shock a cow into an unconcious state (apparently 30% of cows are not completely unconcious and are still perfectly awake. interesting), then hang it up, cut it up, and let it bleed to death. But for me, it's one of those necessary things for me to keep living. Because I sure as heck and not going to hunt animals and kill them myself... that'd be just crazy.

Don't waste your breath on this obese, diabetic, emo goth whore from America.

She's either that or a weak vegan slut that will die. Threatening to kill people? Laughable, you bitch.

I'd feel about as bad as your mom when she sees your spelling grade

I agree.. lol..
but something bothers me..
Do they just kidnapped cats in the streets?
well that would be wrong..
If the cats were farmed or something like that, its kinda not that terrible ^.^
DO THEY CONSIDER THE RABID VIRUS??

They have no nutritional value.

Nutritional value isn't "bred out" of animals, fucktard.

Oh God you're stupid... Iraq obviously wasn't about oil. We haven't gotten any substantial kick back from Iraq except a battle ground that isn't the US. And don't be dense... China has a shit load of high grade coal. Also we don't need to invade China, the bad global economy is causing China to meltdown. Unless they can continually grow jobs in the countryside, millions of workers will flood the cities, and KABOOM!

Actually the economy of China is the least affected by the America's recession according to Business week and Forbes magazine. And also, China does have "lotsa resources" its just that America won't have a easy time dealing with the Chinese military, especially since it had such difficulty with the Iraqi army.

Yeah, all that difficulty with the Iraqi Army...

You must have forgotten that we took Baghdad in less than a week. Their capital, army, and government fell in a week. I think that says quite a lot. As for whether or not we actually have done anything else worth bragging, is unknown. I personally think the war was a ridiculous ploy, but likely saved the U.S. from further terror attacks. (From having our armed troops over there, radicals lose focus on attacking us stateside)

All this shit aside. I hope to travel to China someday, I love the country and its history. Its culture contrasts so much to our own, although not so much now.

Regardless, I see nothing wrong in this, it's their culture and their food. I personally don't want to eat cat...But I've a feeling it'll taste just like Chicken. So when I'm in China someday and eating "Chicken", hopefully it won't taste like that cat that it was made from.

Cat is only eaten in the far south. Kinda like gators in Florida.

The people from that region are kinda like Southeasterners in the US who eat strange things.
