Officers: Pierced 'gothic kittens' marketed on Web AP

posted: 56 MINUTES AGOcomments: 1PrintShareText SizeAAAWILKES-BARRE, Pa. -Humane officers say a Pennsylvania woman marketed "gothic kittens" with ear, neck and tail piercings over the Internet. Officers with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals removed three kittens and a cat Wednesday from a home outside Wilkes-Barre, about 20 miles southwest of Scranton.

Officer Carol Morrison says the society got a tip that the Ross Township woman was selling the pierced kittens on the Internet.

She says, "It's unbelievable anybody would do this to kittens."

Charges are likely against the homeowner, whose name was not released.

Morrison says the woman has a pet grooming business in the basement of her home.

...I think neck & tail piercings are a BIT extreme...the ear...I can see...not to much trouble at all...but a TAIL? how the fuck did they even DO that?

[jynxxxedangel]

Ancient Egyptians used to pierce the ears of their favorite cats, as a mark of ownership, and as an homage to Bastet.

These kittens, however, did not deserve to be pierced (especially on the neck and tail!) and "marketed!" How terribly brutal!

Bast is going to be so pissed when She hears about all this.

1) Poor kitties!

2) Are there really people effin dumb enough to pay more money for "pierced" kittens?

This woman should never be allowed to have animals again! Anyone who would pierce a cat's neck or tail, which are full of nerve endings, is ignorant. She could have caused permanent nerve damage in these poor creatures, and possibly partial paralysis.
