The example of pit bulls was to remind everyone of how the law will deal with and does regularly animals who harm humans. While not as intimidating, cats can cause permanent harm if they want to. I doubt if one left permanent scars on your face you would maintain your sentiment. Yes diff animals but still both potentially dangerous to babies, kids, and in this case adults. I have two dogs now and have owned animals all my life Mack. The abuse you refer too is extreme and I doubt any of the guys that posted daydream about it. This is a sensitive subject for you? Just remember most of us here love animals. Humans come first, especially the safety of our wives and children. Cats in this case control their own destiny.

IMO putting a animal down humanely is different then abuse. I do not support PETA yes they get out of hand. But I have grown up and still have pets and feel that abuse punching kicking stabbing dropping them off to as mentioned drowning is WRONG and inhumane IMO. Do the right thing if you no longer want the animal (pet) or it has mental issues that cannot be dealt with bring them to the humane society or your vet and have them put down. Please don't condone abuse I have read and seen some very horrific things.

People have chopped off tails,burnt cats ,poked eyes out ,cut ears and tongues out somehow attached tails together and thrown over a line!!! What level of abuse is acceptable? Don't teach abuse ,do the humane thing ! Most Animals are defenseless! We aren't talking about being attacked by a Pit Bull here lets compare apples to apples! We're discussing a 10 pound or so cat it's not like it's going to cause death. If you fear death or being scratched then you should not own a cat. Cats scratch ,like dogs bark.

I'm sure that if anyone of you had a dog get loose and if it pissed on my tire or scratched my fender and I broke it's leg or poked it's eye out you'd have a serious issue over it. WTF it wronged me now my rim has a stain on it it must be punished the way I fell is best for me!

I knew this would not be popular and many feel the same they just wont come forward and choose to ignore this topic. Myself I have just seen so much animal abuse lately it makes me sick!
I hear exactly what your saying about the cat and I'd be pissed too but I'd react in a humane way.[/QUOTE/]

I didnt cause harm to the cat because of anything it did to my truck or anything that could be replaced or fixed. As I have explained and will explain again so you can better understand the issue I had. The cat attacked and caused significant damage to my girlfirends legs and hands. I spent plenty of time in the urgent care and emergency room from this incident and it could have been much much worse. I have a 115lb Rot that is better around babies then that f&cking cat!

I hear exactly what your saying about the cat and I'd be pissed too but I'd react in a humane way.

Everything has a place. And that cat does not get an excuse. I have a baby and a cat. I can assure you I was extremely concerned about how the cat would respond to the baby. We all know cat's are selfish finicky creatures right? Wrong. This cat we have does not like to be around our baby, and will try to stay out of his reach. But at least twice a day when I am watching, the baby will corner the cat, and the cat will let the baby pat hit like mommy and daddy do. You can tell the cat is not happy with this but the cat knows this is a baby, and he doesn't know he is being too rough. My wife and I reinforce the cat's good behavior as well after the fact.

I agree about the abuse. There is no excuse for any form of torture. But I can assure you I would not simply take a cat or any animal that would hurt or maim my family members due to a psychotic break to the humain society. God forbid you go to adopt an animal the next day and pick up that cat, and get hospitalized because it hates certain colors.

I too have seen abuse stories, hunting dog's missing limbs abandoned because they can't keep up as well (My aunt adopted one, we named him stubs.) Animals starved so bad they can't move. Dog's with a rope embedded in their neck after being tied up as a puppy and simply left in the back yard for years. And you know what, these are the animals that deserve good homes, these animals that were treated worse than we can imagine, and after being rescued, remain the most loving animals.

It is animals such as this that deserve and need those good homes, not psychotic animals. Those psychotic animals are part of the problem as well. And that cat that could have hurt that baby was taking up room that one of those deserving animals you mentioned needs.

Putting an animal down with a well-placed bullet is humane. Aim at the top forehead towards the spinal column. Bullet should pass through the area where the brain meets the spine. Instant. Shuts down all voluntary motor activity, breathing, and heart pumping with a perfect shot, but even a poor shot is lethal in less than a minute (miss the base of the brain.)

Even a high powered pellet gun can do an "instant" kill on small animals (use a steel BB, not a target pellet) with this method, and a .22 pistol or rifle is plenty on animals as large as cows and horses.

Ether is another method, and if you are uncomfy with shooting a conscious animal, you can use ether (starting fluid) on a towel to put them under. If you keep spraying long enough, (a long time, at least a full can) it won't awake, but if you don't keep going until the heart and lungs completely stop for over a minute, it will awaken with brain damage.

Most shelters charge significant money today for putting down, errr, accepting for adoption pets. Many laws have been passed that require lethal injection, and you foot the bill for not only your pet, but the strays that must be put down. Gas was a lot cheaper, usually CO2, but like most gov't functions, it's not expensive enough, so they need to make it cost more, like everything else they touch.

Dead cat...
Come on meow


Back to the OP-
If the cat was scared when it pissed in your truck forget about cleaning it and just replace it with a new one, as the pharamone levels in scared piss are like 10x greater...i found some bench rear seats for 150 bucks on e bay, ive seen rear bucket conversions that look pretty cool for the back too.

If the cat got killed it got what it deserved.

I hate cats with a passion only because they are a**holes (most of the time) we have a few my wife feeds that hang around that are cool and very good with the kids but cats on the whole are dicks and some of them just need to have a lethal lead injection to put them in their place... at the dead end of their nine lives.

new cat fact = F*ck cats

OP sorry to hear about your ol' lady and your truck. Likely hood you get smell out is minimal. May be cheaper to source a new seat. Cat piss is some powerful shit.

I'm wondering out loud here...but can you turn it in to your auto insurance or maybe home owners insurance. Just tell em you left your window open one afternoon and when you came out to lock up your car all you could smell was cat. Good ridence to the cat. Once your girl gets better talk her into getting a dog.

Unreal really the OP said that he punched the cat read below after others offered up the advise to kill the cat ,see below,



HAHA im not one to endorse animal cruility but, that cat didnt know what hit him. when I came into the room he was on my GFs leg and I threw a Mike tyson punch his way sending him across the room and he came back for more second punch made him thim twice lol. I was Gonna just let my dog in the room to finsih him off (Rotty) but I figured taking him for a ride was a cleaner choice lol. Thank you guys for all the great ideas and advice I will try it all out today after work!


I find this ridiculous as IF that cat was truly latched on to this poor girls leg and he threw a " Mike Tyson" punch at it surely he caused his GF more pain and damage to her limbs. Then thought the CAT KNEW what he or she did and what the punch was for then came back for a second MIKE TYSON go round and that was enough so he must have waved the white flag I suppose. Then well lets get the dog to now punish the cat but maybe he thought that if the Rotty got the taste of blood well that would be wrong! All the while all of this was some funny ass shit!

Now the cat is scared shit-less from the two rounds with Mike Tyson and he thought the cat was going to be all happy to go for a ride now with him and he urinated in his truck and he's pissed off?

Come on really? This is all called for? Why not grab the cat behind the scruff of the neck remove it from the room decide that we cannot have it as it is unreliable around babies and have it properly euthanized ? Do you actually think a PUNCH meant something to this cat? You wonder why PETA flys off the handle .

You can either be human about things of this nature or not. If people cannot control their emotions of anger to something helpless then they should not have pets. If you feel there could be a impending issue with a pet in your household ,like for instance a baby, the animal should be dealt with prior to the baby coming. Don't wait for a disaster then do something.

This is my opinion take it or leave it abuse is abuse . If it makes you feel tough to punch a dumb animal that has NO CLUE you have issues. I don't find the humor in it. I know it's the cool thing to say kill kill the cat understandably they sometimes cannot be trusted like any animal but do it humanly.

Had a cat get jealous of my daughter being born.And pissed all over the new babis stuff.Cat got thrown n a box and sent away.
Being in the flooring Business.There is nothing you can do to really get that out except replacing the foam*and material.NOTHING WORSE THAN CAT PISS .
Hope your child is going to be ok

Bingo..

Your best bet is to replace the seat and carpet if you want it out completely. You can clean and soak, but when the next hot and humid day rolls along, it'll hit you like a baseball bat..

Dealing with this in my business at times, I would soak the seat and carpet underwater with a product called Odorcide and then flush, flush and flush again...

I am not trying to call you out or insult you. But I feel your view is naive at best. I can assure you I would kill anything that threatened my child. I would treat a crazed drunk or drug addict the same way he treaded that cat, and I likely would have not stopped there. That cat was not begging for attation, it was causing harm, and who knows how far it would have gone. Wait till your in that situation where a baby is in danger and see how calmly you treat something that is clearly insane. It is always easier to pass judgment on someone for an action than to be in the same situation.

Abuse is abuse, I hear you. But most animals know when they are hurting someone or something. This is the same as a human hurting an animal cause he can, or doesn't know better. That cat knew what it was doing. As for with dealing with the cat prior to the baby showing up, how, read it's mind? Ask it how if feels about it? Lock it in a room? How is that any different than abuse? I have seen 2 animals that I wouldn't trust around a baby or child. Both of those wound up attacking someone (they were poorly raised) One was put down, the other was killed when it attacked a guy. It's called live and let live. Animal kingdom rules here bud, if everything plays nice, there are no problems.

MACKIN is right i should have allowed him to calm down first and release her leg before doing anything. I shouldnt have rushed in to fix the situation I should have just left her to fend him off. Really? How else should I have Removed him from her leg? I dont beleive you were at my house and in the room with me to make that decision on what was best to do. How is it you would deal with an agressive cat that is causeing harm to your significant other and the possibility of it getting to your baby son?

This thread has gotten more action than a hot tub on jersey shore. Pretty funny if you ask me lol. I told my wife about this thread as we were getting in bed last night and she said "boy you and your diesel friends just talk about anything don't you" I didn't have an answer.

Mack you would be right if he was tormenting the cat to start with, but if an animal attacks someone (unless it was out of fear like you startled it or it was just attacked by something else) then violence is the only thing they understand. I grew up on a farm and dealt with all sorts of animals, and never abused any of them but once something starts to get violent you have to show it you are not going to tolerate it, and are going to be the dominate one (can't always just put it down when it comes to farm animals, sometimes you need to keep them around like a bull). Sometimes they just get the idea that they can run the show, and will do so until you show them they can’t. And for the record, I hate people that entice animals to act like this by abusing them.
