Bonsai kittens (explanation)

Jac · 29-06-2007, 09:45 AM

I made a comment about a photo last night so here is my explanation)

A few years ago there was an uproar about a web site that was putting kittens at weeks old into bottles and containers.
They were feeding them through straws inserted into there tums and another in there bots for out put.
The result was bonsai kittens. Stunted unnatural shaped kittens.
To make matters worse you could place an order and grow your own.
The site was eventually closed down after petition's were set up.
Does anyone else remember this?

I remember this was it not proven to be a fake?

I'm not sure. some said it was fake but some said it wasn't. Even if it was the person who thought it up was a sicko!

Emm · 29-06-2007, 10:13 AM

I hope it was a fake

Me too for the kitten's sake

. The photo's were bad enough.

I didn't look at the photos - I can't look at these things the images stay in my head for ages afterwards

I wish I hadn't! that's why I said the photo reminded me of them

. In order to sign the petition you had to follow the link.

I do remember this Jac but I too thought that it had turned out to be a hoax??

Emm · 29-06-2007, 10:41 AM

I just re-read your original post - what photo are you talking about? Is there a new one?

Jac · 29-06-2007, 10:45 AM

No it was in the joke's last night. It was funny but it gave me a flash back if you know what I mean. It wasn't intentional.

I'm not sure Fran. Some said it was a hoax but others said it was for real and the man was named.
