Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
I know not everyone loves Cats but this really does take the biscuit:

They discovered the trapped cat when they heard her cries and decided to check the footage from their security camera to see how she ended up in the bin.

They believed Lola - who is not yet a year old - must have been dumped by drunken louts.

But when they saw the video, they were shocked to discover it was the work of a middle-aged woman.

Well Mick when you see how some people treat their own children who can be surprised that some people are equally nasty towards animals.

Hopefully now it's on the national news she'll be recognised and charged and hopefully committed due to her obviously being mentally unstable

Luckily the weather has been cool, or whoever opened the bin would have been faced with a VTOL-much-clawed-hissing projectile...

Pity they didn't put her in one for a day and see how she feels. What a cruel act and unfortunaly lots more people who are dumping animals on roadsides and tossing them out of cars are not caught on camera. Lucky this was.

I know what your saying Maggie ,but i have seen people treat their pets better than their children .

I think there's a good chance that she will be seen passing the house again in a few weeks time

They just showed the woman on Sky that owned the cat rubbing the cat first then looking around, catching the cat by the tail and then putting the cat in the bin. She left it in the bin for 18yrs. Her face was quiet clear so hope as well on the video.

she is a f and a b ....

"I'm surprised at it being a lady I expected it was someone drunk coming back from the pub, but when I saw that, it's mad," said Mr Mann.

i dont get that though. so a lady cant be drunk, just men?

Sasha222 24-08-2010 01:15

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
Women can just be as cruel as men and also she looked quiet sober on the video and was not a teenager either. I was shocked she looked quiet calm doing it. I missed the end of the video. Did she come back and take the cat out of the bin or did someone else hear the cat and rescue it

You usually find that anyone who is cruel to animals, is usually cruel to fellow humans.

The woman is a disgrace :mad:

Disgracefull.

She needs a cat herself.

A Cat of Nine Tails that is.

Kymmy 24-08-2010 12:44

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
She's been identified by the RSPCA and the police have been forced to offer her protection due to local feelings

http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-...ice_Protection

Kymmy 24-08-2010 14:03

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
It's weird as the RSPCA can charge her yet the police can't, it still though is enacted in the law (perhaps the law only gives powers to RSPCA under the Animal Welfare Act)

Under the Animal Welfare Act 2006, the maximum fine for animal cruelty and welfare offences is £20,000. The maximum term of imprisonment for offences is six months

Sasha222 24-08-2010 14:05

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
So putting a cat for hours in a bin is not a criminal offence and gives out a message now to others that they be cruel to animals and get away with it.

Leaving cats to hop around in red wellington boots till they collapse exhausted is also cruel I think. :erm:

'Lola was a rescue cat and was wary of people when we first got her. She has a lovely disposition and really wouldn’t hurt a fly.


This is what makes the whole thing worse. It must have taken an awful time for the family to give Lola back her self confidence when she was rescued from a shelter and now this has happened to her. I hope it wont affect her self confidence again poor thing

Yeah wonder if he has a licence for that. My view of this is obviously what the woman did is wrong but if people want to have pets how about keeping them in their home, it'll save them getting run over and the neighbours gardens from being used as a toilet to boot.

I take it you don't have any pets?

Dogs can be pests wandering around, but I hardly think a young cat is a menace to society! :rolleyes:

I have a dog as a matter of fact and if you had any concern for the little animals you might have noticed the large number of cats run over in your neighbourhood and if you (cat owners) had any respect for your neighbours it might be an idea to stop them from crapping all over the place.

Probably very little.

Putting things in perspective, and I have a cat and consider myself a cat lover, what has she really done?

The cat has no permanent injuries and wasn't tortured etc.

You could go down the route that it was in danger of being crushed by the bin lorry etc. but really you would be hard pushed to get a serious conviction out of this.

Sasha222 24-08-2010 18:37

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
In this weather people have windows open and the cats will climb out them. I dont own a dog or a cat. Well the dog from next door when he is left out pays us a visit and comes in and goes up half the stairs and lies down and goes to sleep and when rested goes out again. No matter if the dogs or the cats get out and about no one has the right to abuse them

Our cat is popular with our neigbours.. he is very good natured & friendly. I've not heard about or seen any cats killed on the roads by my home.

What would you do if your dog got out and somebody stuck him/her in a bin? I'm sure you'd be unhappy!

This cat was on it's owners wall too, not like it was in the mad womans house or something. :rolleyes:

I suspect you might be right, Derek. I don't want her locked up or anything, but she needs to be cautioned or something. what if nobody had found the cat? :(

Just because you haven't seen any dead cats doesn't mean they aren't there, if you drive around town early in the morning you might see plenty as I do, I'd say that either their owners take them in or foxes carry them of and I am sure your cat is a delight to all your neighbours, especially the ones that tend their gardens of have young children playing in them.

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
Nothing else would explain what she done and the way she was so cool about doing it as well. The only thing that would have me thinking and I could be wrong was she did look around to see if anybody was around to see her doing it. Would someone with mental illness think about if they were being watched.

I don't know... maybe she just hates cats?

Sasha222 24-08-2010 19:09

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
I'm more afraid of cats than say hating them. I have feed cats that strayed into the back but I wouldn't have one as I dont like when they show there claws and it freaks me out but would never be cruel to them.

speedfreak 24-08-2010 19:18

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
Personally I find it a little cruel to keep a cat indoors. I use to keep mine in but she is SO much happier now shes let out, they are too wild to be kept indoors IMO. Im not actually keen on cats I was mithered in to getting one but Ive never understood people that bother about neighbours cats roaming around, Id rather that than mice/rats etc. Arent cats wild? I cant be bothered to read up on the history of cats but my view is they have a right to roam around, pesky cats getting in the way of cars and getting run over and calling the owners irresponsible doesnt wash with me

Anyway, on topic, she doesnt need a sentence, her punishment will be everyone living around her knowing what she has done and thats the best punishment I could wish on her, no doubt she will be wanting to move house now

Sasha222 24-08-2010 19:27

Re: Woman dumps Kitten in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
Oh and just to add, I wasnt having a dig at another poster, I know many people think of cats as pests Ive just never really understood why. Im not some tree hugging sort but cats have as much right to roam around as birds that fly about IMO. You wouldnt hate birds if a bird crapped in your garden :D

Would have been nice if she hadn't of done it in the first place..

What horrifies me is that she strokes the cat (so she's not afraid/worried about them) then looks round to make sure no-ones looking and places it in the bin.. That's one sick person and if they're that sick then they need help otherwise there's a good chance that it (or worse) could happen again

Sasha222 24-08-2010 22:04

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
It was so devious the way she done that which makes me think that there wasn't much wrong with her. She took long enough to look around before she put the poor cat in the bin. Or then again maybe she has some health issues.

The cat's people have a most mature attitude to all the furore.

Sometimes stress can cause actions no rational person would even dream of committing in normal circumstances.

Well to me she didn't look very stressed to me looking around first to make sure that she was not caught before she put him in the bin and people who are stressed and do something out of the ordinary wouldn't say it was a joke and then say they didn't know what the fuss was about

People don't outwardly show manifestation of stress every moment. You caught a quick glimpse of her.

It was a stupid thing to do, a moment of madness. However having been plastered over the papers and on news stories world wide she is certainly had a rough time and will probably never dream of approaching another cat again. I see no need for this to continue.

She might be a 'sleepwalker' :)

All the hate she's getting is her just rewards. Hopefully it doesn't come to any violence on her part, she might lose her job because of it, but knowing that she's the most hated and talked about woman right now must be horrible. But I don't have any sympathy for her at all. Evil cow.

She might actually enjoy the attention - then it wouldn't be a punishment. (just playing devil's advocate)

All the hate she's getting is her just rewards. Hopefully it doesn't come to any violence on her part, she might lose her job because of it, but knowing that she's the most hated and talked about woman right now must be horrible. But I don't have any sympathy for her at all. Evil cow.

I wouldn't agree to any violence towards anyone as that makes the people just as bad. But she should have at least be fined and made pay for what she has done.

Yeah, some people just go over the top. she did a bad thing, let the RSPCA take action, not threats of violence towards her.

I tend to get stressed, its never crossed my mind to shove a cat in a bin. Theres definitely no harsher punishment that could be given compared to all this publicity, she will be known as "that cat woman" for a good few years Id think.

So many assumptions here as usual.:erm:
Lets just wait and see what happens.;)
She might be mad.
She might be a cat hater.
She might have done it on the spur of the moment.
None of us know.:)

We don't need to wait and see, she's already admitted that she did it as a joke and her words were "It's only a cat"

No assumptions there, just her own words on video

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
She also said she didn't know what all the fuss was about and someone on the paper that was linked her said she is an animal lover. I would hate to see what she would do if she hated you

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
It will all be forgotten by Friday. Plus there are other things to worry about, other than the cat.

I am a great pet lover, she has admitted she was in the wrong, the cat is ok, the RSPCA will probably smack her wrists for it, so to me that is the end of the matter.

caph 25-08-2010 23:16

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
She did that to the cat having looked around to make sure no-one was looking. If she's done that then what else has she done? If I was the police I'd be making enquiries about cat poisonings and missing cats in the area. Her aggressive and dismissive nature towards the BBC reporter was interesting.

It's all very well saying that there are other things to worry about, but unless she's checked she'll do the same again or worse. If you'd been attacked, I guarantee that you wouldn't think there were other things to worry about.

People drive at 100mph and nobody complains. Woman dumps cat in bin and Facebook groups POP up all over the place. Odd...

I always find it very interesting/weird/worrying/disgusting the way some people react to animal issues and stories like this. You'll get people wanting this woman hung, drawn and quartered without even a hint of irony.

Some of the responses to this thread, asking if you'd save your own pet over a work colleague, i actually find quite troubling.

So Kymmy, Why do you think she did this despicable thing then?
Like i posted.....

What she did was not the action of a normal person. I can`t stand cats, i hate them with a passion but i`d never see any harm bought to one.;)

Hmmm, someone drives at 100mph, then what ... they get there quicker I suppose. Someone deliberately drops a defenseless animal into a container that they can't get out of, they get ... a dead animal unless someone rescues it.

Yes, I can really see that these two things are so similar in all the important ways. Your grasp of analogy is just that, a grasp. You are odd.

I find it more interesting/weird/worrying/disgusting that you lack enough empathy to see that a woman putting a cat into a life threatening situation would cause people to react.

If someone put a child in to a discarded self locking freezer there would be hell to pay. The fact that it is a cat obviously reduces the reaction but it is still along the same lines, why would you expect otherwise?

Speaking of grasping at things, you'd do well to grasp the meaning of a simple sentence. I said the way that some people react. Your response above bears little relevance to my comment.

Pretty poor comparison to be honest Russ. not everyone thinks that 100mph is cruel, evil or even dangerous.

you should have added that the driver was drunk and not driving a police car ;)

My response to you stands.

"the way" people are reacting is to show offense to this woman's actions.

You said you find it disgusting that people are reacting in this way.

My comment bears complete relevance to what you said, so much relevance in fact that I'm lead to believe you are being argumentative for argument's sake. Either that or you are stupid but I'm feeling generous tonight.

EDIT

I've just reread your post prior to the one I initially replied to and I find your refuge behind pedantry baleful. Go to bed Niles and reflect upon the ignominy of pedantic cowering.

Russ, it's bad enough that she is a bank employee - though we should be used to them putting things like the economy in the bin - but imagine if she'd been a muslim.

So i lack enough empathy for the cat/owners because i find the knuckle dragging, pitch fork wielding, knee-jerk, over the top reactions and comparison with human affairs very interesting/weird/worrying/disgusting? Interesting logic.

Hardly pedantry. I make a comment referring specifically to a certain section of people, in order not to tar all with the same brush and cause offence. You ignore my concious effort in what seems to be a rather overzealous moment, by arguing anything which isn't full of "Awww" or "How awful!" etc. Your suggestion that i lack empathy because i don't like some of the reactions speaks volumes.

How do we know she wasn't? It doesn't actually say anywhere in the article that she isn't, so by some of our CF members' "logic", she must be.......

It may be part of "their" long-term plan - first, build the mosques as symbols of power, then, kill all the cats, as it is well-known (on some sections of the intraweebtubez) that our feline companions are Britain's first line of defence against the insidious invaders from Muslimia, as their extraordinary cat senses will warn them in advance of the uprising, and they will warn their ethnically indigenous owners of the rising tide of curry-based insurgency...


(or perhaps not)

Bloody Muslims, coming over here. Looking like our middle aged women, putting our cats in bins. Send em all home!

Anyway she's been identified, she's admitted to it and any prosecution has so much evidence even the CPS couldn't make an arse of it but I can't see any prosecution being likely as being in the public interest due to the lack of injury to the cat.

Has anyone interviewed the cat yet? What about its feelings? Cats have rights too you know.

Interviewing a cat? It would be like interviewing a teenager and just sit in the corner giving you evil looks.
At least if it was a dog it could tell you if it was feeling 'ruff'

Sorry...

I don't think it would be so bad if she were a muslim. we would be told that it's part of their religion and belief that cats should be put in wheely bins. and then we would have people defending their right to put cats in wheely bins. and people would accept that it's not so bad after all.

What she did was wrong but all the public hating her is going to ruin her life, which is fine for me. She didn't care for the cat as from her comment "its just a cat".

I think I see what you're getting at now. You're saying that people who find this very offensive and are calling for blood disgust you. But I presume you are not disgusted by people that just find her actions offensive? Does that sum it up?

Sasha222 26-08-2010 14:46

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
I saw the video again last night on the news and the cat was on the pavement and when the woman stopped the cat went up on the wall to be petted. She petted her and then looked around and when nobody was looking she caught the cat by the neck and put it in the bin.

The poor cat trusted her and for her trust she dumped her in the bin. I think people should be shocked at what she done but as I said before I dont believe anyone should be violent to her and the proper people deal with her.

Arthurgray50@blu 26-08-2010 14:50

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
Everyone is whinging about this cat, and the cruelty to it, BUT people must also realise the cruelty carried out on other animals.

I watch endless shows where there is countless cruelty done to dogs, and no one bats an eyelid, someone throws a moggy into a bin, and she gets crucified, and even death threats, the next time you see an animal in the street, just think, that could be being mistreated.

Sasha222 26-08-2010 15:09

Re: Woman dumps Cat in Wheelie bin Footage caught on CCTV
 
I know there is loads of cruelty to animals around and I think It's disgusting and if they were all caught on camera the out rage would be the same. Also the callous way she done it getting the cat to trust her by stroking it and then dumping it in the bin like it was a bit of rubbish is cruel

---------- Post added at 14:09 ---------- Previous post was at 14:06 ----------

I dont for one minute think she should be getting death threats or do I condone violance as that makes the people doing that just as bad. I just think she should be dealt accordinly with the proper channels
