Dutch artist turns his dead cat into a radio controlled helicopter

This is actually very old story, actually from 2012. Why this news site posts it suddenly? But yeah, its sickening. What if someone makes copter out of that artist after his dead? If its not okay to play with human corpse. why would it be okay to play with cat corpse?

I don't use this expression often, but here it is the only thing that comes to mind:

O.M.G.

Like looking at a train wreck. Just can't help yourself.

I can't understand why we are supposed to show respect to our dead human friends but dead loyal animal friends can be treated like trash to play with as we will.

Trust me, half the people that show up for a funeral DON'T want to be there. It's something people feel they have to do out of respect. Same goes for weddings. Bart says, "different strokes for different folks. I tend to agree.

Sometimes culture is a prison for the mind. We do things out of routine or tradition even when we don't want to. People show their respect in many different ways. I don't think "we are supposed" to do anything we don't choose to do.

He was asked that. He said it would be cool.

Having said that, I'd balk at a 'Human Pencil Sharpener' though

What if a person's dying wish was to be made into something like this? Would it be okay then?

The only difference I see is the cat couldn't give his consent.

No, this is just wrong! Use a stuffed toy if you really need to put propellers on a critter.

I don't think he loved the cat or could not make a toy out of it to sell, if you say some people can call this respect I will still say I don't believe it.
I don't attend funerals as i wish to remember as they were this is nothing to do with that.

Sometimes culture is a prison for the mind.

Even a child knows our loved ones dead corpse are not toys.

I take it you didn't enjoy the movie "Weekend at Bernies"?

The only thing this hurts is our beliefs. The cat was run over by a car and would have been no more but now....It's immortal and flying

Pencils? Meh...Stranger things have been found in a persons nether region.

Honey, have you seen the remote? No dear, but every time I get the hiccups, the channel changes. Weird...

I'm a cat lover owned many through the years. A part of me is saying this is wrong and a bit sick but the other half of me is in absolute hysterics I can't believe and so amazed that someone thought of this. Just the way the cat is all spread out makes me laugh. This has got to be the funniest and twisted thread I've read in a long time lol
Star and flag I just had to

I bury my dead cats in a nice place in the garden...
This dead cats life has been degraded and cheapened.

Not Impressed.

I personally don't think this is respectful in any way but I also don't find it disrespectful. Haters gonna hate.

And some people believe our physical bodies are only a vehicle for the soul. What happens to them after death is of no concern.

You must think cremation is disrespectful. It involves lighting our loved ones on fire after they die.

Yes haters have no love in them I guess you are right there. Anything for a laugh and a dollar, by your definition this could be a human baby and it would still be funny.

I don't watch garbage, why would I want that in my head but even you may not laugh if that was your friend.

PS you realize THAT was fiction right?

I'm doing this with my grandmother when she goes. Too brilliant to pass up.

Half of you loves things that are wrong and sick in other words, clears that up.
