Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted January 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) All the cats appear to have tails that are completely intact, and not broken.

Popular Post Chang_paarp Posted January 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2015 The only good cat is a flat cat. The demolition folk should try to get more in there to help clean up the area of strays. While they are at it they could get a few soi dogs into the building when they flatten it. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sviss Geez Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 "Everyone knows what happens when kitties are alarmed and scared, they are likely to hide in the building when the demolition starts."The kitties..what? How old are these people? Sentimental claptrap. If this organisation that looks after cats actually did know anything about the animals they would know that at the first sign of danger the cats will very rapidly exit the building. They do not sense danger then stay where the danger is! "Volunteers have visited the scene regularly to feed the cats." Perhaps the volunteers who encouraged the cats to stay there should be the ones to evacuate them and take care of them. If they hadn't mollycoddled the animals in the first place they wouldn't have been so keen to hang around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Well time for the dog lovers to vent I suppose. Idiotic story, don't they think the cats will get out of the way! As stated, any kitten litters may be trapped which is a bit sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmyp Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I love cats, I've got 2. But the stray population has to be controlled, or you wind up with these kinds of problem. Will my cats be disappointed with me for not running to help? I won't tell them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandtee Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 What a catastrophe! Round them up and turn them loose on Bali Hai pier in Pattaya to kill the rats. Two problems solved. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usual Suspect Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 If this story was about stray dogs about to be crushed would that mean the demolition folk would now be liable under that new ruling about killing dogs..? Yes I'm a cat lover, & I also believe if the demo-men drop the building/s slowly (with a '360' & a henpecker)..then most/all of those cats will get away from the danger.

steven100 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Now if they could get as many soi dogs in there as well that would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12DrinkMore Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 This is a terrible, inefficient and harsh way to kill the kitties. Can't some kind person go and lay down a load of poison to make sure they all die quickly, no escapees? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmarlin Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 When the construction crews arrive they will scatter. But you could always move them to queen park plaza on Soi 22 where the rest of them are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1Str8 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 What's up with the making fun of the fact that all these cats are going to die soon? What about those of you that think it's funny, joining them during the demolition. Don't worry nobody will care and quite a few will make fun of it.

quandow Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I just had a long time resident explain to me that it's the cats' karma to get flattened if they stay there. And, yes, 2 + 2 = 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheard Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Why all the concern? These cats are feral, pests, and should be eliminated. Now to encourage a few hundred dogs in there as well. . . . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fookhaht Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I liked cats until I moved to Thailand. Now, I also include them in the "rat" category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoshowJones Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 They are just smelly disease carrying vermin and should be eradicated just like rats. NO, NO, NO. Cats are beautiful clean animals.

bluesnake Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 It's not the cats who should be crushed to death, it's the stupid bitter morons that hate everything except their big fat and disgusting ego, you will easily know who you are because you will hate my post as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredNL Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) It was proved scientificly in the 1970's. High educated people love cats more than low educated people. Low educated people love dogs more than high educated people. Reason: The low educated want to have control over their pet. Command them, then they feel great !!! High educated people love cats because they are less depended than dogs. Most replies show the (real) IQ / education level of most foreigners in Thailand, if you haven't noticed all the all the tatoes they're wearing.

And of course the highly educated dont actually wear root vegetables as adornments eh? You meant 'po'tatoes, right? I perfere TATTOS as they last longer and are less cumbersome than 'tatoes'and my IQ is just fine, unlike the drivel you just gave us all a laugh at. And if anyone wants to box up those cats and ems them to fang ill have a few as im getting bored with pork for every meal..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billphillips Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Don't be too concerned, some of these are tame cats just along for a free meal. Wild cats tend not to wear collars as some of the pictured seem be doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
