This stray cat won't leave me alone

[Andalusa]

That poem-y thing? it's awesome, I'm stealing it by the way.

D'aaawwww, you got a new kitty avatar.
Same kitty?
Anyway, yeah, it's called the litany against fear.
Read Dune. The books are good stuff (until you get to the ones written by the authors' son.)

Yeh same kitten.

Cool, and I've been needing a new book to read so thank you.

There are a few.
And if you're in the market for a new book, I would be remiss not to mention The Name of the Wind, my personal favourite fantasy book everzzzz, etc.

Again thank you,
And you changed your avatar as well.

Take him/her in, feed him/her and love him/her
He/She wants you as their owner so locate your balls and do it already!

 

[Arkhangelsk]

I would first check it if it got any signs of an owner, a tag or anything (it probably hasn't since it's out begging for food), and if you can't or don't want to take care of the cat, give it to someone. Until then, feed it so it doesn't starve. And for all of you suggesting cruel things to do to that cat; f**k you, that cat just want some food and someone to take care of him/her!

"Who is this "4chan" you speak of?
I defy them, and will kick the furry behind of many a cats from the cement steps of my kingdom for many a year!"

In all seriousness, what could 4chan possibly do on the Internet to exact revenge for posting a video about cats getting booted in a hilarious manner?
(Not that I really would abuse a animal. It was a joke, and I'm just curious about what 4chan would do because of such a video)

 

[Inarticulate_Underachiever]

UPDATE: I took the cat (which is temporarily christened Splot >_<) to an animal shelter, one that I know the owner of personally. She's assured me she'll take it to the vet and if it doesn't have an owner she'll hold onto it for a week and then if nobody claims it I'll take it back.

So who wants to play the biscuit game whilst we wait?

 

[Chibz]

Don't take it to the animal shelter!

 

[thiosk]

Right now he's sitting on my porch begging for food and whenever I go out he follows me around relentlessly unless I hop on a bus or other form of automobile transport

You fed it, thats why.

Now its yours. you break it you buy it.

Oooo a lot, just read: [http://www.cracked.com/article_17170_8-awesome-cases-internet-vigilantism.html]

For some reason, the information age tends to make assholes want to go global. By, for instance, abusing a cat on camera and posting it on YouTube.

When a 14-year-old kid decided he'd post his own cat torture video, he probably didn't foresee the massive response he'd get once it spread across the Internet, leaving YouTube and heading to places like 4chan and other corners of Hell where the foolish are punished for their glaring webcam indiscretions. There, the denizens that some call "Internet detectives" and that we call "tentacle child porn enthusiasts" tracked the abuser down through his Facebook and MySpace accounts, because assholes are also generally not bright enough to not wallpaper the Internet with their own photos and personal information.

The result of Anonymous's detective work is that there appeared an entire website devoted to the teen, including his picture, links to the videos he made, the names of his parents, their addresses, phone number (as well as work addresses and numbers) and the website address of his father's business, which is now strangely absent from the Internet.

In a curious twist, the use of gay fan fiction also came into play, on websites that review the father's business, featuring such charming passages as "Tito was naked, standing in front of him with a big Hawaii boner staring him in the face. 'As the ancient Hawaiians used to say... it's time for a dicking!'"

The news media caught wind of the story, and then local police started getting inundated with calls from all around the world. Businesses in town got the same treatment including a number that weren't involved in any way due to the wrong information being spread online. Oddly, the police response to this was to politely ask people to stop as they might "stalk the wrong person."

The cat was taken out of the home. The abuser and his brother (also in the video) were charged by the local cops.

Debate rages to this day as to whether Anonymous went too far, since they tend to not apply this much righteous rage or sympathy to actual human beings. But then there is the case of Chris Forcand...

The internet can be a scaaaary place.

Ummm... Please don't break it? how weird are you?

 

[orifice]

If cute, keep it. If ugly, let it starve.

Don't you dare say that. Just because a cat is ugly doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be loved.

Holy crap! You just made an angry old psycho cry! You should be ashamed! Seriously, is it any wonder that I hate humanity, when stories like this exist. Rest in Peace 'Ugly' you were a credit to your species.

 

[IrrelevantTangent]

Accept this gift of divinity. Take the cat in. And ignore all of the ****tards in this thread suggesting harming the cat. Cats are sacred. Bast says so.

(snips out almost all of the entire message.)
The internet can be a scaaaary place.

What sick child would abuse a cat for video attention? Knowing that something like that actually happened is upsetting, but hearing the cat scream made me want to cry. Senseless animal abuse for absolutely no reason other than wanting to create senseless animal abuse is disheartening and cruel.

But on the topic of 4chan: Posting a target's family information over the internet and destroying all websites they come into contact with are just small portions of what they're capable of. They can also hack into and dismantle someone's computer, or whole family of computers. The problem in this lies in the fact that the members of 4chan act like ants on a raid; not only taking out the victim and/or his family and/or his friends, but also completely innocent bystanders that have nothing to do with the hunt. It's dangerously unorganized in that fashion.

Aright, aright... Before anyone gets too serious about this, I'd like to note that I was just joking about abusing the poor thing.
I used to own a cat, and would routinely abuse him, and now that little fuzzball has a lawsuit on me. So I seriously wouldn't recommend it.
Otherwise, I don't have any suggestions about the cat. If he hadn't already taken it to the vet, I'd reinstate that he should lightly nudge the cat off his porch with his foot and say "shoo, little ************!".
And thanks for the info link, Assasinator. its not often that you can prove that nerds being angry and ranting about something actually has an effect on anything.
