Is it normal to torture animals?

You shouldn't be punished for your thoughts. That kind of makes psychotherapy counter-productive, doesn't it? You can't receive real help unless you're honest, and if you're honest, you will be punished. What a stupid damn system, indeed! And, just to note, not all shrinks would snitch on you and get you put away, BUT there's no guarantee what limit each shrink sets. To hell with psychotherapy o.O for the ones who need it the most, for people who actually do stuff like this. Why get a permanent record for yourself? Same question as asking why would you throw a brick on your foot? It's the animals that are getting tortured by you, it's not you who is getting tortured.

Don't be a bitch it's not like everyone who tortures an animal is going to end up a serial killer.

I've got a different feeling though. Like, I love most animals. I have volunteered at dog shelters and I have helped clean up birds who have been contaminated by oil spills.

I just really enjoy fucking with cats though. They're just so stupid and ballsy. This one time a cat my family had tried jumping up to a ledge and he missed and fell and I laughed my ass off. It was even better because he did it to himself. I don't know why I feel so differently about cats than other animals. I guess they kind of give off that vibe that they are better than other animals so I put them in their place. They "wash" themselves but they still smell so every now and then I will take any cats we have to the sink and give them a thorough bath. It's mostly for cleanliness but I also get a kick out of it because I know they hate it. You can also put hot sauce on them because they'll try to lick it clean off and they get a surprise lol. Whenever they act up or get loud I usually tie them up with some rubber bands. I weave several together to make a rubber band rope and I use that. When they get on the table or any of the furniture I usually shove them off. I haven't hit any of them like that yet, but I use a stern yell and they usually heed at that. Another funny thing to do is buy some really strong double sided tape and wrap it around one of their favorite toys. Funny as hell to watch them deal with that. Also cool to stick random pieces of duct tape on their paws or place them on one of those sticky mats things you can buy for catching rats. I've given alcohol to a couple of them and placed them on a high railing on top of a stairway. One actually made it down without falling, the other fell and it was hilarious. This one time we had a couple cats that we were trying to get adopted. We delayed on getting them neutered and they fucking banged and the female had a litter. Around the time the kittens started walking I bound up the legs of the mother and started fucking with the kittens in front of her. I threw them in the air, carried them around by the tails, dunked them in water, forced them to drink alcohol and did the railing thing, etc. It was the best time. The mother was a stray so when we couldn't find anyone to take her we ended up releasing her to the wild anyways. I figured since she was a stray before no harm done releasing her back. I sold 1 of the kittens and dropped all the rest in teh woods a week later. We haven't had any since but I might start on the lookout for strays I been bored lately.

On the contrary, for a person to ruin his life by turning himself in and having a perfect record would be the one thing that causes him to have a crappy/ruined/sad/pathetic life, don't you think? Why should someone who does that cause himself to have a psychiatric and criminal record, and explain this to every future landlord and employer. "But I turned myself in" isn't going to carry the littlest bit of weight.

Why would someone voluntarily ruin their own life and be committed to a psych ward or be sent to prison? Doesn't make much sense. I don't blame anybody who abuses animals who chooses not to seek help for that very reason.

I never said I was doing it. When did I say that?

Geez, why does everyone tell me to kill myself for asking a question? I never said I hurt animals.

What's OP stand for? When it comes to torturing adults, it would be extremely difficult to get away with it. The reason people choose animals and children would be for convenience I'd imagine. An animal can't cry for help. A child who is too young either can't cry for help or is to scared or whatever. People really are sick.

I asked the original question, but it was to see if torturing animals is normal. I bet it's one of those things that is very difficult to get good statistics on because I don't think people would openly admit to such a thing. I don't do such things.

You made a bunch of assumptions, there. I never said I did this. I only asked if it was normal since animal cruelty is an issue in every country. It's something a ton of people do, and it's probably one of those things that's very difficult to find out the number of people who do it, because people would naturally not admit to such a thing in most circumstances, since it would only incriminate them.

I would doubt a hotline would do anyone that much of good. They would just be restating what you're stating, to get help and stuff. I doubt they pay license psychologists to work a hotline. Maybe social workers at the most. Not to mention calls do gets traced, so someone would still be putting themself at risk for seeking help in this way unless they go to a pay phone or something and keep the call short.

Your life must be horrible. It must suck to not have anyone love you. Instead of hurting others, why don't you just hurt yourself? Sick fucker. :)

You must be the person that voted yes, then. 3% normal lol.
