A neighbour 2 doors down has decided to buy a kitten. Bearing in mind that shes a fking lazy layabout, benefit scrounging scumbag who has never worked a day in her life.

She has 2 kids who are thick as st. Neither can talk properly (aged 2 & 4 i believe) as the mother never has convosations with them. The only speech they pick up is swearing which has been directed at them when they do something wrong.

Buying a pet was the last thing I would expect her to do. She doesnt have enough time for her kids as it is (she has such a hectic lifestyle, with getting pissed off her face most days sat in the garden) let alone a kitten.

Now my real problem with the situation is this...

Shes put it in the shed.

Sounds a bit weird but yes, this 6 week (from a distance) old kittens new home is her garden shed. She got bored playing with it around 9pm and decided to lock it away in the shed for (I presume) the night. God forbid she only lets it out next time she can be bothered to play with/feed it.

She only got it today!... Anyone think I have grounds to call the RSPCA?

I would discreetly keep a look out as to whether she does it again before going to the RSPCA. If she keeps doing it I would consider it. She must be stupid not to realise cats are quite happy to be left in the big world overnight.

If I was sure she was leaving the kitten on it's own in a locked shed for long periods of time I wouldn't hesitate to pick up the phone.

Well we quite regularily see her off her face, asleep in her garden at 9am after a nights drinking whilst her kids fend for themselves. So yes, she really is that thick.

I just don't understand how she can think it's a good idea to lock a tiny kitten in a shed? It will either freeze to death, catch a disease as they are not allowed outside until after x ammount of weeks or just be the most unhappy kitty ever. You don't lock cats away for fk sake.

Well, i know for a fact that its locked in the shed now, and I presume it will be for the rest of the night.

Shes usualy out drinking at her friends houses during the day so I expect it will be back in the shed whenever she goes out too.

I would call the RSPCA. They deal with things anonymously, and they have expertise to judge the situation.

If she goes out couldn't you break into the shed to rescue the cat and take it to a animal sanctuary (sp?).

I dont start work until 12 tomorrow so will keep an eye and see just how much it is in the shed.

TBH im not happy that its put away in the shed at night. A kitten should be inside in the warm. Poor little thing.

I like the way everyone is worried about the kitten but has seemingly forgotten about the young children.

Personally I would call the RSPCA and let them judge the situation for themselves. Also see if any neighbours feel the same as you about her inability to look after an animal. This should add weight to your concerns.

I dont really want to get envolved physically. Everyone watches everyone else around here and I know for a fact that someone will tell her it was me and then all hell will break loose.

Happens all the time with all manner or petty crap. Most commonly that her mates use other peoples parking spaces, even though the people complaining don't have cars to park in them...

Yeah, very sensible. Trespass, commit criminal damage, then take it to the all night animal sanctuary.

Just give them a call tomorrow. They treat this sort of thing very seriously.

That's disgusting, what an absolute degenerate. Unfortunately the RSPCA are really ineffective unless it's a horrendous case of animal cruelty. Please, please, rescue it tonight and take it to a rescue centre 20+ miles away saying you found it in a box by the side of the road. It's bloody freezing tonight.

With a mother like that, they'll grow up to be little sts. Hence, the kitten is more important hehe

Obviously i didn't mean doing it tonight. Secondly if the O.P didn't get caught who's going to know and the cat gets saved. But the O.P has ruled it out so back to the drawing board.

She'd probably just get another. At least if the authorities get involved and rehome it, she'll either not get another one or, if she does, might treat it better.

Put it in a bag full of bricks and throw it in a lake. Its the kindest thing to do.



























I am of course referring to the fat c**t of a useless woman.

You get the kitten, social services can grab the kids and the RSPCA can take her away.

Assuming this benefit scrounger rents her property, is it against her rental agreement to have pets?

I too am concerned that people are more concerned about the kitten than the kids involved. Warped priority much?
