Good use of the SAD tag. Have your pet spayed or neutered. And if at all possible, when getting a dog go for a shelter animal.
 
2004-03-20 03:51:55 PM
Real tragic, them dying before we got a chance to slaughter them ourselves.
 
2004-03-20 03:53:12 PM
Mmmmmm, where's the BBQ?

<one way ticket to hell>

man, that's really sad, a bunch of caged cats and dogs being slowly burnt to death or dying of smoke inhalation.........so depressing.

[And if at all possible, when getting a dog go for a shelter animal.]

And never ever give an excess pet to a PETA shelter - they kill 'em quick there. Should have called 'em puppy motels, they check in but they don't check out. Yet another reason to hate the PETA hypocrites.

Your dog wants A-1.

One of my best friends died last Sunday and he was a cat.

More good souls gone.
 
2004-03-20 04:02:17 PM
Oh well, they'll just have to murder one of the other dogs.
 
2004-03-20 04:03:21 PM
My dog now is from a shelter, lab/shep mix. Awesome dog, with tons of personality.

Unless your showing a dog, or have allergy reasons, no reason to get a purebreed with all the great mixes out there.
 
2004-03-20 04:04:55 PM

Really? I assume you're a vegetarian, then? Or do some animals not have souls?
 
2004-03-20 04:04:59 PM
can you imagine being in a cage trapped while you are burning to death? I can't even comprehend how scary and painful it was for them (lots of empathy for her fellow kitties) mew :(

Some of the comments in this thread remind me of why dogs and cats are so much easier to love than people.

At least nobody's told any hot dog jokes yet.

*waits*

Actually, they probably died of smoke inhalation long before they combusted. I'd rather die of smoke inhalation than be stuck on a sinking ship or strapped to table and lethally injected.
 
2004-03-20 04:12:50 PM
Actually Zagadka I imagine they died of embarrasment. Those animals weren't wearing clothes!

Wow, someone's just itchin' for a fight

Poor animals
 
2004-03-20 04:15:28 PM
I do animal rescue and this is just tragic. Just as sad is that this many animals die in individual shelters every day. We kill millions every year.

Today's lessons:
Spay and neuter your pets.
Don't buy from a breeder when animals in shelters are dying.
 
2004-03-20 04:15:29 PM
HowlingFrog that is a sick joke but made me spit drink up. good one
 
2004-03-20 04:16:58 PM
Wow, someone's just itchin' for a fight

Yea, probably. But I also get sick how people harp over the "cute" animals and ignore the millions of "tasty" or "ugly" animals that die every day. Kinda like when a plane crashes and they say "There were 2 Americans killed. Oh, yea, and 273 other people."

"Mmmmmm, where's the BBQ?"

well, according to the article:
LEITCHFIELD, Ky.
early Friday morning.
began about 2:30 a.m. CST.

sorry looks like you missed out.

Your dog wants OUT RIGHT THE fark NOW!!!
 
2004-03-20 04:21:53 PM
zagadka thats totally untrue... us americans aren't cute at all. and i wouldnt call the rest of the world's population "tasty" although "ugly" works kind of nicely

How about just seeing something for what it is? Animals trapped in cages that died in a fire.
There doesn't always have to be a counter point.

Sometimes something that's sad...
is just sad.

Then again, maybe that's just me.

for all you really cute people out there, you know who you are. watch out there are alot more of us ugly farkers then you. --frank zappa

here fido, bring me my slippers.--zappa
 
2004-03-20 04:27:06 PM
shouldnt the shelter had sprinklers installed in it to help put out the fire?

*shrugs* Sadder stuff happens every day (to humans, even), and no one cares. Most of those critters were going to be offed anyway, along with millions more like them that no one really cares to bother about. When someone gives a damn about tens of thousands of people dying and being maimed in diamond wars and stop buying f*ing diamond jewelry, I'll give a damn about 50 dogs and cats sitting on death row. Until then, there are more important things to be sad about.

I can always count on Sweater Girl to be the voice of reason, especially when animals are involved :)

sheesh...don't you know that only cats, dogs, monkeys, dolphins, elephants, kangaroos, and pandas have souls....put those together..you know what you got?

2004-03-20 04:41:40 PM
50 dogs and cats? How terrible! Why couldn't it have been 50 people, especially 50 people in a far away country, then I couldn't have cared less...
 
2004-03-20 04:47:13 PM
Wow, almost as many people care about this as the plastic mouth shaped urinals! We're almost there!

: Unjustified war in Iraq kills 500+ Americans.


And that's not even counting the Iraqi victims. It's like in the movie Equilibrium where tons of people die but it's not a big deal, but once the bad guys start shooting some dogs, it's time to kick some ass.
 
2004-03-20 04:52:39 PM
If there's anyplace on teh intarweb that can turn a sad thread about some crispyfied puppies and kitties into a political flamewar, this is it.

My faith in my fellow Farkers returns...

/sheesh
 
2004-03-20 04:53:36 PM
zagadka -- wow, I had no idea that suffering was relative. you should keep this in mind when your folks, your siblings, your friends pass away. *shrug* oh well, there's worse things going on.

suffering is suffering, and while your cute vs. non-cute argument holds water, your subsequent statements show that in fact you were just concept-jerking and simply don't give a damn.
 
2004-03-20 04:53:41 PM
Juggleboy:

Thanks for the comments but respectfully, shut the hell up. I'm not even sure how someone can bring up war in Iraq out of this story.
 
2004-03-20 04:56:05 PM
That wasn't chicken.
 
2004-03-20 04:56:43 PM
The amount of animals destroyed daily in shelters obviously dwarfs that number.

SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR PETS, PEOPLE!!!
