Earlier this week, two twisted individuals in Philadelphia sicced their dogs on a black cat named Buddy. They encouraged the dogs, repeatedly shouting, Good boy! as the cat yowled. The incident was captured on surveillance footage which I wont share here because I dont recommend watching it. But, hey, you know how to use Google.
I am pleased to announce that Buddy is hanging in there, in the words of the Pennsylvania SPCA, which has been providing the little guy with round-the-clock care. I might be biased, since Im the proud owner of a little black cat who bears a strong resemblance to Buddy, but tell me this photo of the kitty hooked up to all sorts of machines doesnt bring a tear to your eye:

(22,941 posts)Terrible awful painful things should be in their future along with tons and tons of pain. They earned it. The dogs should be put down because now they are attackers and think it's approved and desired behavior.
Although with sadness with respect to the dogs. It is not their fault they were trained to be evil. If it's possible to retrain them, maybe that can be tried.
As for the 12 year old, hopefully it wouldn't take as much to wake him up. The 17 year old is probably too far gone though.
