Smurf the Kitten

[bratvada]

A seven-week-old kitten that has been dyed purple and suffered from at least 15 bite wounds and deep lacerations is now safe and recovering from his injuries at the Nine Live Foundation, a no-kill shelter in Redwood City, California.

Named Smurf for his periwinkle hue, this poor baby kitten, who weighed in at just 1.75 pounds, appeared to have been “used as a chew toy for a larger animal (or) dog,” the Foundation said in a Facebook post. The kitten was rescued from the San Jose Animal Care Center and transported to Nine Lives for medical care.

Oh! I live about an hour's plane ride from there. That's completely insane, that's in the Bay Area, it's not a white-trash-ville central inland conservative town.

We just live in a sick culture. There appears to be no reprieve, even among the educated.

Its human nature. Its not so much our culture, we've been killing and torturing throughout human history. We will probably continue doing it for hundreds of years, at least.

The trashy types definitely do more damage. Education etc is a vast help, stops the cruelty in the name of superstitious BS
