To all the people on this thread who defended this fúcking lunatic, shame on you.

Have you actually seen both videos? This guy is a total cúnt.

I don't think anyone is as such defending what he did just pointing out the hypocrisy of thinking it's bad to kill a kitten because humans like the look of them. He only did this because he knew the cat brigade would give him the hysteric attention he was craving.

Your opinion is nonsense. It's not a wild animal. Burmese pythons that are kept as pets are all captive bred and have never seen the wild.

There is so much wrong with this statement i don't know where to begin... sigh... Burmese pythons belong in the wild. IMO wild animals stolen from the wild, and forced to breed in unnatural conditions is cruel and the people who do it are ignorant.

They're highly unlikely to "turn on you and try to kill you" unless they have never been handled. Same with any pet that has had little or no human interaction.

Burmese pythons/reptiles/other wild animals have no business being handled by humans.
It is totally disrespectful of the beauty & nature of these animals.

To all the people defending this video, what do you think of the second video they have now posted? Surely you can't still defend them?

You can't ignore that this person has now progressed to drowning an animal for fun, no other animals involved this time!

I don't think anyone is defending the man in these videos.

Talk about missing the point of the entire last 10 pages of discussion.

Now you must be trolling!!?? How is the cruel death of this kitten different to the cruel death of the other kitten!!

Or is that people are finally starting to see there's no actual backing to the obvious sick person in the videos. Hes a sick f*ck with no other intention than to get entertainment out of the death of an animal!

How the hell am i trolling?!?

Earlier in the thread i was arguing the point that I saw no difference between a kitten and any other small mammals being fed to snakes, whether you agree with that or not has been covered.

Drowning a kitten on camera for a laugh.........slightly different (in my opinion)

It was a one sided argument no one actually said they were only horrified because they though the kitten was cute, the hyprocrisy criers were the only people to and they were put straight but still they continued to ignore.

Do you not also see it hyprocritical to find the video of the kitten being drowned for fun worse than the video of the kitten being fed to the snake for fun??

Not really no.

This is just my opinion of course but I'm entitled to it......I'm not intentionally trying to anger anybody, but there it is.

Right.... good luck with that so :rolleyes:

I'm sorry Sir, but you have done nothing but talk complete and utter bullsh!t and scutter in this thread.

Your talkin through your fockin hoop.

Your not pointing out hypocrisy your arguing and trying to be controversial for a reaction, no different to the absolute freak that fed the snake the kitten in the first place.

I have said it already and i've said it again, this wasn't about feeding a starving snake.

This was pure sick and evil mainly down to him setting up the filming of it and the christmas music. And the videoing of him drowning another kitten in a bat further backs up this assumption of almost everyone on here.

lsl · 05-12-2011 10:05PM

I think some of you are missing the point here, we know animals eat animals thats nature, this 'Christmas Video' was made purely for sick evil entertainment, the perpetrator(s) are evil, it is kittens now what will be next, the overlaid song on this film I believe is the song played by the EVIL moors murderers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley as they murdered a little girl so why did they choose that. I live in Islington I hope he/they are caught and PUNISHED soon.

What if the kitten grew up to be the next Hitler would people be so outraged?

Fancy giving a few reasons why they shouldn't be kept or how it is cruel?

You can't force a snake to breed. They'll do it when the conditions provided for them are right. However you can force dogs to breed and this practice is widespread with artificial insemination becoming popular with many dog breeders

You're entitled to your opinion but I feel you are perched high on top of your horse without really understanding what keeping reptiles is all about.

If you are against keeping any pets I respect your opinion, otherwise it's uneducated nonsense.

REPTILEDAN88 · 06-12-2011 02:22AM

They are captive bred and alot reptile species are actually quite difficult to breed. I saw this story on a few reptile forums and as much as I hate cats I think it was a horrible thing to not only feed the kitten to the snake but filming it and posting online for kicks. I have never fed my own reptiles live but if I had to I would but I wouldn't even tell people about it if I did ever do it, it may be illegal to cause the mouse, rat etc unneeded pain but the snake would suffer too and thats neglect then.

Wow I can't take any more, I started at page 1 and got up to about 15, then I stopped reading.The following quote was from 12 pages ago, and yet an argument seemingly still rages. I just don't get it. Btw TerrorFirmer, top man

Tasteless? That's beyond tasteless - that's a sadistic, disgusting human being, and the argument regarding a snakes diet is irrelevant to the most disturbing aspect to that clip - that someone went to such lengths to lull a kitten into a false sense of security and greatly emphasize the kittens status as a domesticated, and seemingly beloved pet by putting it in a stocking and kissing it - and then feed it to a snake for his own enjoyment. No-one ever said they're indifferent to the potential plights of mice/rats/any other of a million and one animals that perish each and every day as a result of nature taking a course, that was never an issue. Feeding a live kitten to a pet snake in such a manner - as that conducted in the video - is not natures course, it's a sick individual who is clearly somewhat disturbed and took great enjoyment in acting out a scenario that he deemed would cause the greatest emotional reaction possible. Plenty of frozen food is available for snakes, there is no reason to feed it a live kitten. And even regarding live food, and stupid comments like feeding at zoos, I don't really think one would see zoo-keepers kissing and cuddling said food sources and wrapping them in festive bows before coaxing them into the mouths of relevant predator. No-ones arguing natures course, or the food chain, or that snakes are bad. But the manner in which this sick individual went about this, is beyond defense and in my opinion he deserves severe punishment. If I read a story about a snake eating a kitten as a simple occurrence of nature, it wouldn't even phase me 10% of what the nature of this story does.

The issue here is more so the individual and how he orchestrated this, not the snake, not the kitten, not the food chain, not what snakes usually eat.

noxqs · 06-12-2011 04:27AM

Serial killers usually start out by torturing animals. The person may be a psychopath - the inability to feel empathy for the kitten - emulating normal human anthropomorphization of animals by dressing them up etc, before feeding it to a python would seem to indicate he knows human behavior but is unable to understand the emotional attachment it creates.

I would feel equally disturbed if it was a pet rat fed to a python, the fact that humans keep an animal as a pet elevates that animal to a higher status as we attach emotions to it.

The issue here is that this person needs a psychiatric evaluation before he may become dangerous to humans.

Well for a start, they are taken from their natural habitat. Just because a snake in captivity is alive, and conditions for breeding are replicated, doesn't mean the snake is at it's best or thriving. Snakes can't talk, but if they could i'm sure they would say something like, "leave me the **** alone'. Every animal adapts to its surroundings for survival, a light in some closed in box imo is not a sufficient substitute for the sun and the natural territory of a snake.

Believe me i am not perched on my high horse... I happen to have thought about this all my life and feel strongly that alot of animals should not be kept as pets. I have also explored the area of human's relationship with animals for example the dog.
The dog has become domesticated over the years, resulting from a necessary reliance of humans on dogs for protection/hunting etc. This is fine. I dont agree with forcing dogs to breed either btw.
I have had many pets over the years, and i have learned that for me, true respect of animals & wildlife, true appreciation of their beauty can only be observed while in their natural habitat. That is why i am forever in the fields/rivers/woodlands/wetlands etc. with my daughter so that i can learn & teach my daughter about nature & it's wonders. The only 'pet' i keep, is a cat whom i have spayed and she wanders freely. I keep her to prevent rats, as i live in the country. When she comes home for cuddles, its great.

I am not claiming i know everything & i am right, i'm just giving my opinion.

If i had reptiles, i would feed them live animals without a shadow of a doubt.

All animals kept as pets were taken from the wild. If you take hamsters as an example. They were only introduced as pets in the 1960's to 1970's. A lot of snakes have been kept and bred as pets since before this.

The majority of snakes in the wild have a very small territory. Often only leaving cover to feed or mate. Snakes kept in large enclosures in captivity often don't do very well as they are naturally agoraphobic.

Generally people who keep reptiles have done lots of research as to how to keep them. I would imagine that the level of care reptiles recieve over all far surpasses that of dogs, cats or the raft of small mammals people keep.

I haven't seen you do anything other than throw insults around and flap hysterics.

Not strictly true, Dogs and cats more than likely domesticated themselves over time just to get access to our food. Dogs especially are no longer wild animals, they've completely adapted to a life with humans. It probably took hundreds of years.

was six when I first saw kittens drown.
Dan Taggart pitched them, ‘the scraggy wee ****s’,
Into a bucket; a frail metal sound,

Soft paws scraping like mad. But their tiny din
Was soon soused. They were slung on the snout
Of the pump and the water pumped in.

‘Sure, isn’t it better for them now?’ Dan said.
Like wet gloves they bobbed and shone till he sluiced
Them out on the dunghill, glossy and dead.

Suddenly frightened, for days I sadly hung
Round the yard, watching the three sogged remains
Turn mealy and crisp as old summer dung

Until I forgot them. But the fear came back
When Dan trapped big rats, snared rabbits, shot crows
Or, with a sickening tug, pulled old hens’ necks.

Still, living displaces false sentiments
And now, when shrill pups are prodded to drown
I just shrug, ‘Bloody pups’. It makes sense:

‘Prevention of cruelty’ talk cuts ice in town
Where they consider death unnatural
But on well-run farms pests have to be kept down.

Gotta love the hypocrisy of someone saying videoing a kitten being eaten by a snake for entertainment is fine, but drowning a kitten for entertainment is horrible.

Killing an animal for entertainment is wrong and disgusting, no matter what the means of death is. Hypocrites.

Whatever, if you're too blinded through your tears to see the obvious that's your problem.

kleefarr · 06-12-2011 02:47PM

Is it a man that has done it?
From the photo that I saw, it looked like the person have very feminine fingers.
The manner in which this was done is the point.
