    CCTV footage of a seemingly kind lady until she throws a cat into a bin and quickly walks away.

    According to the BBC the police and RSPCA have indentified this woman. I'm pretty sure she will have to move house soon, and if it was my cat she threw in the trash I'd have knocked her teeth out.

    people who hurt animals are the same as those who hurt children they are preying on those that cannot defend them selves. they are the lowest and vilest filth in the world and sadly they don't get the punishments they deserve.

    Wow. I can't say she really hurt the cat, but that is bizzare.

    True, but the cat was stuck for 15 hours and probably would have died a rather nasty death had the owner not heard it meowing for help.
    Some people are beyond belief.

    Poor moggie, glad it was okay.

    That woman is a piece of crap. Someone should throw *her* in a rubbish dump to die.

    I dont know who to be more disgusted with (as I watch cars on the busy road infront of the flat). The owners or the woman on the street.

    The owner wasnt even looking for the missing cat. If he would have gone out onto the front stoop and said "here kitty kitty", he probably would have heard her calls. But that isnt what happened. He was heading out without a concern in the world for his absent pet.

    ah, she isnt the brightest cat so we will let her roam the streets.

    Pet or lawn ornament?

    She is getting police protection after receiving threats for putting the Cat in the green bin where it was been stuck for 15 hours. She has not committed any criminal offense.

    So you dont really have a pet, you have what would be known as a barn cat, or stray for city folk.

    A cat that leaves for two weeks does not consider your home its home.

    animal abuse is not a criminal offense in the UK?

    perhaps the outrage regarding, and media coverage of this incident will prompt new legislation.

    How is this animal abuse? Have you seen the size of cat carriers? The abuse/neglect is the owners who couldnt bother looking for their cat, and had no idea it was missing until they found it in the wheelie bin. 10 feet from their front door.

    Well.. I'm not too sure about the UK and their laws, it is their duty to call out on outrageous acts. I cant find any available information.

    We will wait and see what 'legislation' is created.

    Yes, but you always find things in the very last place you look before you find it.
    Every time. It's uncanny.

    Now I'll tell you which sciforumer should be on Youtube for cat menacing.

    It's Sam!
    Yes, you Sam. You always chase your cat around the room.

    There are animal cruelty laws in the UK, some of the best in the world (but not good enough imo). However it is difficult to take this case to court since the cat wasn't hurt and you can't really prove the woman meant the cat any harm.

    She's since told her story to the The Sun newspaper and if the quotes are to be believed she doesn't think she did anything wrong.

    She sounds stupid. What did she expect the cat to do in a "green" (I'll assume that means recycling) bin?

    "Oh, I thought it wanted to be recycled to end global warming!"
    Maybe she read that ridiculous article about "How Green is Your Pet?" and thought she would take the initiative to do something for the planet. Maybe she had a green-greed streak and was hoping to get a few carbon offset shares out of it?

    Honestly, what the hell was going through her head? If you leave a pet in a car, or even worse (according to the law) a human infant, and the temperature is in the 80+ fahrenheit and the sun is beating down, that is potentially grounds for some kind of legal action. If the temperature inside the car was 100+ degrees, that would probably be all Child Protective Services needs to whisk your child away.

    Even more amazing than the stupidity here is how outraged people are over this when much more horrible things go on all the time.

    This whole business is clearly mysogynistic. It's a witch-hunt.
    It even has the traditional familiar. The Cat.

    For f***s sake. The woman is clearly suffering from some compulsive disorder.
    Women get a bit strange in their fifties.
    (come to think of it, most humans are weird all their lives)

    If this had been done by a male between the ages of 6 and 26, no-one would have batted an eyelid.

    If you think this is animal abuse worthy of international condemnation, let me know. I can post a few pics of real animal abuse. If you want.
    Then maybe you can direct your righteous anger at the right peoiple.

    I hate to admit how right you are. So I won't. You are totally wrong.

    How so? He probably would have gotten counseling of some sort around here.

    Oh! Does it involve Chinese animal snuff porn?
    Please keep it to yourself. Even Mr. Farage would likely turn up his nose at that depraved smut.
