Also, if we know who stole it and murdered them, the owner knows of the whereabouts of the cat. So the traumatization is temporary. Stealing a cat is not a reason to kill someone.
Wait... what? How am I more sadistic than anyone else on this thread? It's just a simple debate thread.
Humans and cats are both animals. They both formed from the very same materials in th universe and it is interesting how they evolved differently from one another. Despite this difference, they are both living and life should be valued equally. Causing trauma in a cat is just the same as causing trauma in a person, which is just the same as causing trauma in a dog orf a fish. Therefore, it is acceptable asnd justified.
You can replace a cat. You can replace a fish. You can replace a dog. While their lives are valued and should be cared for, losing one should not be greater than a humans life. Which CAN'T be replaced. You can NEVER replace the life of a person. A dog is an animal. While that doesn't mean you should beat or abuse it, that does mean that the life of a human should come first.
Ok, let's not kill anything at all and see how we survive! First month: 75% of all life on earth is dead because they can't eat anything living First year: the only things alive now are plants and photosynthetic bacteria, good job!
How the ---- can you replace a cat or a dog, yet be unable to replace a human? You should go check yourself into a mental institution. It's ok to have problems, but getting them cured is for the best of the community
You cant replace a pig! Anyways animals have families too! Spare a thought for their grievance. Im a vegan p.s
-Narwhal: True, but like I said in the original post, murder is justified if there is a logical and understandable reason to it, and needing to survive is an understandable reason, because it is a human's natural instinct to survive, so therefore it is acceptable to kill a cow or chicken in that situation.
Does this apply to dogs or cats too if you had to? Or are they off limits because they are domesticated as pets?
-That would depend on your ethics, but I doubt you would kill a family member if you had to. (I consider my cats as my family)
