You'll eat one of 12,000 endangered bears, but you won’t eat one of 10,000,000 house cats?

Pet people have no sense at all, retardedly norrow outlooks on reality.

"OooOOOooH kill all the sharks so that my cat smooshy wooshy can swim in the water without being scared ... oOOoooOoohh."

"OooOOooOooooh my god a rare and endangered fisher cat ... kill it quick so that I can feed it to smooshy wooshy ... eeeeeerrrrrrmmmmm!! Save me a slice!"

Thank you!! Me too...

About everything I said about not eating dogs being a big deel..That's all BS because I don't eat anything with a face and an instinct to live. I was just trying to see what people would say....

The cow represents one of it's gods or holy animals so yeah obviously it's wrong to them. I'ed think it was wrong if I believed the cow was a holy animal. Anything with a split hoof or something like that...?

No matter what the situation, I don't think that eating a dog is going to solve the problem or be any kind of an effective protest. Speaking only for myself, since I live in a non-dog-eating society, when I read the article, the first thing I thought was not "well that shows them" speaking of the Prince and Queen. My first thought was "that is disgusting".

This corgi dies at a breeding farm, yum, probably from disease. So I hope the guy eats it and get nice and sick afterwards. Sick body for his sick mind.

xoxluvablexox · 05-30-2007, 03:44 PM

I still don't get how it's sick. It's meat it probably taste about the same as any other kind of meat out there. It didn't get killed for food it just died. I think raising animals and killing them for food is sick. This is just stupid but not really gross or anything.

sheltiemom · 05-30-2007, 04:17 PM

Not sick, just useless. He should look into volunteering at an animal shelter or something if he really cares, but my guess is he doesn't. He's just a guy looking for his 15 minutes......

Feral animals have domestic ancestry. Wild animals do not. So no, feral is not wild. Which post did I miss where someone said they would eat bear?

Talk about a norrow [sic] outlook on reality, people of all walks of life, including the big macho woodsmen, have pets. Maybe you need to consider that it's your own sense of reality that is narrow if you're going to make generalized, prejudiced statements like that.

Good grief, where does this come from? Who takes their cat for a swim in the ocean?

Which brand of cat food contains endangered animals?

So, since you're here in a dog forum, feel free to tell us about your pets.

Oh, I have definitely heard it all, now...WTF?

xoxluvablexox · 05-30-2007, 04:58 PM

No, it's more like.

"AHHH!! Kill all the sharks so I can go surfing without getting an arm bit off this summer!"

I really do have a fear of sharks and I'm learning how to surf this summer. I think if you wear a sharks tooth it's supposed to keep sharks away? I'll have to look into that!

Another thing. Who the **** calls their cat smooshy wooshy?!

DOBERMAN_07 · 05-30-2007, 05:43 PM

I think most of you have missed the point of what I was trying to get across and definitly missed the point of what rhino-lfl was trying to say...

This is not about the dog being eatten. Things that are "strange" to you are being eatten everyday around the world so this dog shouldnt come as a shock. What Im trying to say is that the dude is absolutly out of his mind for eating the dog IN ORDER to protest animal cruelty.

Again, this as nothing to do with the dog.

PS. I really need to get my old sig back of "Try to be less of a dog snob"

onyxdaily · 05-30-2007, 05:43 PM

Ok, at least I'm not the only one wondering, um, what???
I wanted to post about it earlier, but I was laughing too hard over the smooshy wooshy bit.

No, I actually understand about different cultures eating different things. I know that many cultures think it is absolutely unheard of to eat cow. That is why I specified in my post about my feelings being about me specifically, well, and those in my community, since I don't believe it is common practice where I live to eat dog.

Ummmm, yeah, sure, you can believe that feral is wild, but no they are not. Feral is an animal that used to be domesticated (maybe that specific animal maybe it's parents, but somewhere down the line) but now is feral. Wild is and always was wild.

No, I wouldnt kill a shark, and im a little scared of sharks, but thats not going to stop me from swimming in the ocean, or from bringing my cat in either.

I eat meat. Cow, pig, turkey and chickens, no wild animals, only domestic. I do not like eating something that I know had a horrible life such as factory farm meat, occasionally I do (fast food restaurants) and thats when I dont think about it. I like to know that the animal grew up in a big pasture. And for those of you (Doberman_07) who dont think organic raised cows were killed humanly....at least Im sure they lived in a much better environment and are happier then factory farm cows are

What difference does it make how the cow lived? Its dead now, isnt it?

Chloef_2799 · 05-30-2007, 08:13 PM

What a moron. I honestly don't see how that will help prove his case....maybe it is me but I think he is mentally disturbed.

sillylilykitty · 05-30-2007, 08:22 PM

Doberman, I hope that was sarcastic, but in case it wasnt. Ever heard of depression? Ever heard that depression affects not only your mind but your body too? Well animals get depressed too, and if you lived in a stall with your foot chopped off and stuffed full of hormones so you get big and fat, given antibiotics so you dont get sick (since depression effects the body) I bet you'd be depressed too, I think you probably would taste worse and be much less healthy for the consumer then a happy person who lived in a pasture.

One could say the same thing about puppymills. What difference does it make how the puppy was bred and raised, it seems happy enough in the pet shop window. What difference does it make that it's mama suffered, she's probably dead now. What difference does the suffering of dogfight victims make, they're dead now.

Do you not support humane care for animals at all?

You are turning this thread into something its not. Your logic is flawed for three reasons:

1) This is about the method the guy chose to protest
2) Eating happy cows and sad cows shouldnt make a difference because at the end they are both the same, dead.
3) Comparing dogs to cows is comparing apples to oranges.

xoxluvablexox · 05-30-2007, 11:16 PM

There was a video I was watching of a cow following a little boy around and whenever the boy would start running the cow followed him and whenever the boy turned around the cow would stop and then start "stalking" him slowly so as to not get caught. It was the cutest thing I ever saw and after that I never ate a cow again. It reminded me too much of a pet and I couldn't even think about eating one and supporting the killing of it for food.

sillylilykitty · 05-30-2007, 11:44 PM

I tried being a vegetarian. I cant do it, I wish I could, but without meat there is no way I would be able to get the protein I need. I am a very picky eater, I dont like sea food (except raw poke), I practically live off of saimen (ramen) and mac n cheese. So really I dont eat much meat, but I do eat it.

Sounds healthy
