    Don't all children lack empathy to a certain extent? its something that develops.

    Yes but normally at 8 years old you've grown up enough/been taught that you don't try to murder things.

    It's not as if this is a kid that's curious "what happens if I take the wings off a fly".

    It's an 8 year old kid that made a "mistake" of putting an animal into a fúcking microwave.

    It would be totally awsome if the cat got, mutant powers like lazer beems out its eyes. Now that would be cool.

    A kind of a cat version of David Banner...cool.:D

    I have 2 cats, and I'm pretty sure that if they could, they would happily put me in a microwave.

    But then again, cats are meant to be evil...8 year old kids are not. Something is messed up with this kid...and his parents.

    Dunno about that, the parent did rush down to stop it when they had the microwave turn on. So I reckon the kid knew very well what it was doing.

    Didn't read the article cos Im on my phone, but who alerted the media? If it was my kid id have stuck the microwave, cat and all, into the wheelie bin, and forgot about it.

    Well, after I flogged 7 shades outta the little f*cker.

    The cat is alive and well, some damage to the tail, though.

    Full article was quote but incase you missed it:

    "An eight-year-old boy from Kent put his neighbour's cat in a microwave and turned the appliance on, the RSPCA said.
    The cat was found in the microwave in Rochester on Saturday after its owner heard it being turned on.
    The animal survived but may have suffered internal damage.
    The RSPCA said the youth offending team at Medway Police Station and social services had been contacted but the boy was too young to face criminal charges.
    RSPCA inspector Ray Bailey said: "This was an absolutely horrendous incident and all the more shocking because of the alleged involvement of such a young child."

    It's different wavelengths.
    Now go post on the hilarious misconception thread about how you thought the phrase was 'different wave links'.

    Actually, if you had said wavelength it could have been a clever microwave pun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,634 ✭✭✭Aint Eazy Being Cheezy


    Gotcha ;) Guessing the vet contacted RSPCA.

    If that child was mine id be watching him closely from now on. Little creep!

    When I was about 2 or 3 I was at my child minder's house and I put their cat in the tumble dryer. They told me the cat had a cold, and I used always jump into the pile of clothes when they'd be out of the tumble dryer because they were nice and warm, so I put 2 and 2 together and decided I'd be doing the cat a favour, if I was to put her in the tumble dryer... Now I look differently on the matter. The cat ran away the day after, never seen again... AWKS!

    I know that's a different situation entirely, there's a huge difference between a tumble dryer and a microwave, and a huge difference between a 3 year old and an 8 year old. I would have had enough cop on to know not to put a cat in a microwave when I was 2 let alone 8. But maybe the child isn't the full shilling. Some of the posters here are too quick to say the child is evil or he has bad parents... maybe he's just a bit simple! :L

    My cousin aged 6 was staying with me and happened to see me putting a huge spider outside the back door. (it was seriously big, a giant of a spider!) anyway it was raining and she ran outside to grab a leaf from the rose tree to cover him because, "The rain might kill him".

    So yeah, I think the majority of children around the age the OP has linked to know and understand what causes pain.

    I hate threads like this, people are quick to give out on thread but not one reported post, I guess it doesn't offend you guys that much.

    Well it offends me, and as the OP has not given any input since he started the thread I am going to close it.

    From the Charter:

    Not every news story needs a thread on After Hours. Don't just post up a link to a news article just because nobody else has. Add something to it. Your own point of view.
    If you do start a thread, be prepared to contribute to it yourself, especially if you expect others to do so.

    If the OP want's it reopened he can contact the other AHs mods.

    He's either very stupid or a dangerous little sh1t. Either way they'd do well to keep an eye on him.

    Don't worry, I started this to see what the reaction would be. I have an eight year old as well.

    Sometimes it's difficult to look at what a child is capable of doing through the eyes of an adult!

    Just think of what boys have been known to do...

    e.g. tie tin cans to cats tails for starters.
    drop lighted matches into petrol cans and the list goes on....

    Children can do amazingly crazy (stupid) things that adults simply can't imagine.

    Yes. One of the sources. . .

    Look out for that kid in the future, Will more than likey murder someone....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,499 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    I'm imagining the graphic scene in my head with the cat mawing in agony as the evil little sh1t looks on.

    I just can't comprehend cruelty to dumb defenceless creatures, makes me sick to the pit of stomach. The child's age is not an excuse here, there's obviously issues present that need to be seen to by a professional.

    Do you know the kid ? How can you say he would know better if you dont know him ? I know kids older than him that still cant wipe their own holes or know how to tie their shoe laces. A childs intelligence isnt dictated by age.

    The law's an ass. The police have a potential clinical psychopath on their hands and can do nothing about it.

    People like you calling and treating the kid like a potential psychopath are more likely to result in him being that way than what made him stick the cat in the microwave.

    This is the problem with todays society, a kid does something stupid and instead of being corrected and allowed to learn they are labelled as sick or evil, treated as if there is something wrong with him and then they will grow up thinking and believing that there is something seriously wrong with them.

    Its an 8 year old ffs. I nearly burned down the house when I was 8 by lighting a fire for the heck of it. I was told it was stupid and dangerous, I seen how dangerous it was and I learned not to be doing things like that. Guess what ?? I'm not an arsonist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,161 ✭✭✭af_thefragile


    The most important thing is did the kid realise what he did was wrong and he hurt a poor creature. If the kid realised after that putting cats in ,microwave isn't a good thing to do, then he's just a normal kid who is learning about life.
    If on the other hand the kid enjoyed watching the cat cook and would love to try it out again without any feeling of guilt or remorse for hurting the cat, the yeah he might need to make a visit to the psychiatrist...

    My ex put the cat into the washing machine for a "bath" when she was a kid.. One cycle later a very dead and very soggy moggy emerged..

    I guess she is not the sharpest tool in the box.

    I remember being eight and knowing that if you put something in a microwave and turned it on, it would probably get cooked.

    The child is evil.

    The child knew what he was doing. As another poster said, a very close eye needs to be kept on him.

    Actually I have noticed a really dumb streak of posters in this forum who have more respect for animals than children and often wish harm on children in some weird display of affection for cats. Pathetic and rather disturbing.

    I'd be disturbed at a child of 8 putting any of those into a microwave and killing them for kicks either
