I absolutely love cats. They are my favorite domesticated animal to have as a companion. I love dogs and all that other stuff too but cats really stand out to me. I still cannot get upset over this.

As a kid my grandpa and my uncle always had me watching some WWF or Mutual of Omaha thing and it was never anything but one animal eating another.

Just for the sake of argument, and not really trying to cause trouble, but what if that snake were in nature? What if it were hunting for food? What if it found none and slowly starved to death? Would we like that better?

I have a pet snake and I feed him mice. People have mice as pets. That is feeding one pet to another pet. Animals shouldn't be pets in the first place, it is enslavement. (I know, ironic and hypocritical I am saying that, having a pet snake and all, eh?) People have just grown to think of dogs and cats and most other domestic animals as having a higher status of importance than the wilds animals. They don't. There is no scalar system for measuring the importance of one being over another, it's just the opinion of another person, and, as you can see, opinions vary from person to person (otherwise, this person wouldn't have fed the cat to the snake). So, who is right here if they are both opinions? Which opinion is better than the other? Is the answer simply another opinion?

I'm sure the snake much enjoyed having Mr. Whiskers for a meal. Do you guys think the snake thought this was sick? I doubt even the cat thought to himself before death "Oh my gosh! This human is so disgusting and cruel for feeding me to this snake!" I am pretty sure an animal understands the laws of nature and its instinctive desire to have its species survive.

Let's please take a step back and view this without the opinions of what people believe is right and wrong.

I'm a dog owner and I personally dislike cats. However, I do think most pet owners would agree in saying dogs, cats and some other animals demonstrate a level of intelligence, not just instinctive behavior, that other animals don't. Filming the killing of one of the most adored of the domestic animals was sick and twisted and this guy knew it.

If a snake eats Garfield in the woods...so be it. Nature is a brutal place. This wasn't natural and the brutality came from a human being. That changes everything.

The problem here is that we're not in the jungle or the forest, that kid lives in a house and in a city that most likely has a pet store that sells mice especially raised to be fed to snakes.

If that cat had been roaming around the jungle and the snake got it then, too bad stuff like that happens. But that psychopath fed him a cat that was domesticated and the family's pet.

In my opinion, if the snake was in nature and was starving , I have no problem with it running across and eating a cat (even if it is a house cat). If the snake dies from starvation while out in nature, survival of the fittest. The snake will be food for some other animal or insect. Yes, I love all animals and insects, (and I feel sad when I see a dead animal) but its just natural.
