A black cat won't cross your path this
Halloween, not if a northern Idaho animal shelter can help it. Like
many shelters around the country, the Kootenai Humane Society in
Coeur d'Alene is prohibiting black cat adoptions from now to Nov.
2, fearing the animals could be mistreated in Halloween pranks - or
worse, sacrificed in some satanic ritual.
(from AOL News. Pictured: Kootenai Humane Society shelter executive director Phil Morgan defends
the ban. "If we prevent one animal from getting hurt, then it serves
its purpose" Morgan said.)
How sick can you get. I had a black cat for 15 years, and the loveliest animal to humans you could want. Mind you, he was an unneutered tom, so other cats (apart from females in season) could expect a good going-over if coming too close.

The shelters around here prevent the adopting of either black dogs or cats this time of year. White ones also I believe. Helen
ReplyDeleteOh... first time I hear this... how cruel! we have a cat "Clyde" (my daughter's name is Bonnie) and he is black... he is the most wonderful cat I ever had, no need of a liter... I love him. nothing satanic about him... he is so communicative and good company
ReplyDeleteI could adopt the human being on the photo though :D

YOu know, that is just plain sick that this actually has to play into adoption of these beautiful cats. But sadly it's the world we live in :( I would love a black cat.

You said it...SICK!
ReplyDeleteBut unfortunately that's the world we live in. I hear every week of animals tortured or killed, simply for the "fun" of it!!!!

People never cease to amaze me with their cruelty, we had a case a few years ago in Hove where some kids got hold of an old ladies' cat and tortured it before cutting it's head off. I think they should have the same done to them. Jeannette xx http://journals.aol.co.uk/jlocorriere05/Welcometomytravels/
