For his trouble he gets nine weeks in jail. Now I know PH will flame me for this but a Hamster is pretty replaceable in the grand scheme of things, some people do serious harm to other humans or expensive property and get much less severe punishments.

Its not that it was a hamster - more its a fked up thing to do which shows he's sick in the head - what's he gonna microwave next?

I'm sure if he microwaved a human he'd get more than 9 weeks.

Why? Why would anyone do something like that?
Okay, a spider, when you're a kid, or taking a magnifying glass to some ants, fine. But a grown man microwaving a hamster???

Would be interested to hear your views on defining an animal that is not replaceable.

Babies are easy to replace, they only take nine months to make and cost nothing, what's your point?

[y2blade]

that's pretty f-cked up

[WorAl]

Ahh first sentence explains it, he's from Hartlepool, they're always killing animals for no reason, I think they're slightly retarded down there.

What an utterly dispicable thing to do..!!! They've spelt Teesside with one 'S' in the article.

What a horrible thing to do, must have some serious issues to even contemplate doing that, glad he got locked up...

An older cousin of mine collected Newts as a kid, would line them up along the top of a wall and then shoot them, one by one with an air pistol. When he was a teenager he took to stamping on larger prey, seriously, he lived in Oxford with his mother and I was taken there by my parents to visit him (I was probably about 10 at the time), we walked through a park and he walked up to a Sparrow, and for no reason, and with no comment, stamped on it. That will always be etched into my memory, it was like looking at a pile of spaghetti hoops on the floor

In his late teens he pushed his now pretty elderly mother down the stairs at home and then set alight to their house. That was when the men in white coats took him away to a loony bin somewhere near Chepstow. I went to visit him once and all he asked for was a new transistor radio. I arrived and the receptionist took the aerial off the radio saying he could hurt himself with it, I was a bit confused until I then went into a room, gave him the brand new fking radio, and he lifted it above his head and smashed it on the floor, to, in his words, 'let all the little people out' I was a little, err, scared to say the least

A few years passed and he became more and more wibble, so he was taken to Carstairs Hospital in Oxford for some tests. Well, he was supposed to undergo some tests and would have done had he not jumped head first from the roof of the Hospital

we are but usually its only french animals. I can honestly think of lots of more seriously scummy people including a bloke who hit his 6 month old daughter so hard while off his face that she is permanently disabled who actually spent 6 weeks total in jail and was then released on licence. How that can be close to the punishment given for killing a small furry animal you can buy in a shop?

[funkyrobot]

What an absolute !

[beefcake42]

I agree this is an act of terrible cruelty.. but how did he get caught? I mean did his GF call the police or are they now doing random house calls for the protection of hamsters?The point I am making is last time I called the police because someone was braking in to the house opposite they took an hour to arrive.....

Do hamsters get priority now? Next time I have need of the boys in blue should tell them someone is bumming a gerbil?

Probably because his GF called the police and they prioritise possible domestic callouts?

I had to Google that, fking Hell!! Hurting animals seems to be the precursor to much worse in most such cases it would seem.
