Cat Dumper By Nur Erra Fadzerah

Cases of animal abuse are increasing worldwide which left a huge impact on animal lovers. Videos and photos of animals getting abused spread in social networks such as Facebook which stir up anger among netizens. These abusing have to stop before the number of cases keep increasing gradually.

The recent cat dumper which was caught on video which caused a stir among netizens were identified. The man was caught red-handed dumping a cat into a rubbish bin right in front of a veterinary clinic on a Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) footage which was posted on the Cat Welfare Society's Facebook page on Tuesday. In the footage, the man was accompanied by a little girl, who watched him as he dumped the cat. It drew condemnation from animal lovers and some even managed to work out the man's license plate number from the clip.

In my opinion, his act was rather heartless and irresponsible to dump an innocent and pitiful cat into a rubbish bin. He could think of a better way even if he wanted to get rid of the cat such as giving it away to the SPCA or find it a new home. Far worst, he brought along his daughter whom witnessed him dumping the cat in such a cruel manner. This could make his daughter to take dumping cats or animals is an acceptable act and might follow his steps in the future. As a father, he should set a good example to his daughter but instead, he has given the wrong example by doing this. I think, even though he might not be an animal lover, he should at least be rational. This is indeed a wrong act and he should receive his punishment for abusing an innocent cat to ensure that he learn his lessons and will not repeat his mistakes.

We might be of a different species from animals. However, animals should be treated like how humans are treated. They are similar to us who need love and care from people. People should start appreciating animals and treat them like how it should be treated. Animal abuse need to stop.
