Two days, two dead cats

To any cat owners in the Fort Hill area of Roxbury: Somebody out there is taking it upon themselves to kill a few of our cats.

In the past 2 days I have walked by 2 cats on the side of the road, both with wounds to their heads - locations:

-Corner of Linwood St and Highland Ave
-Roxbury Street (in the 500's) near Roxbury Community College

The MSPCA has been notified.

If you see anybody harassing neighborhood animals please take upon YOURSELF to alert the authorities and your neighbors.

A sign of the Macdonald triad?

The Macdonald triad (also known as the triad of sociopathy) is a set of three behavioral characteristics which are associated with sociopathic behavior. The triad was first identified by J.M. Macdonald in "The Threat to Kill", a 1963 paper in the American Journal of Psychiatry. "...These factors... consisted of bedwetting (enuresis), firesetting, and torturing small animals".

Cars kill cats, folks. Keep your feline friends indoors if you live in the city.

I would think a car hitting a cat would be a little more... destructive than just a head wound. Like other maimed body parts?

That entirely depends on how it was hit or what hit it.

A car is probably *less* likely to do a lot of exterior damage than a case of abuse/torture. Cars hit fast doing a lot of impact damage (mainly internal) and then they are gone. A sick bastard is more likely to kill it after shaving it, cutting it, beating it to a pulp, or many other sadistic repetitive acts. The bastard is fixated on what they are doing to it. The car is usually a one-and-done injury albeit a deadly one because of the sheer power of it.

If the cat was between the tires, hitting its head on the undercarriage would leave a head wound, killing it instantly, and nothing more.

Listening to you pontificate about yet another random subject, complete with specific, narrow theories for why someone's wrong. For some strange reason, you're now an expert in veterinary medicine and psychology. And an expert in what happened to cats you haven't examined.

The FBI called- they've got some unsolved murder cases they'd like you to mull over.

Seriously, you're like my mother: an expert in *everything*.

How much the two of you sound alike sometimes. Seriously, you could take your own post, replace a few words, and point it toward several of your posts or the posts of other people and sign it "Kaz". Similarly, there are Kaz posts and Brett posts that could have the use of language changed a bit (in a style sense, not a right/wrong usage sense)and be cross labeled and we'd be none the wiser.

Thanks for that!

The next time someone falsely accuses me of an "ad hominem" attack, I *finally* have a great example of one to link for them!

In the words of Walter Sobchak: "Am I wrong? Am I wrong?"

I'm not an expert, but if what I said is wrong, feel free to point out how.

These absolutely could be road kill - no doubt about it. But, they really, really, really don't look like it. We reported this to the appropriate places per Animal Control and at least there is a record of it in case it was some sicko killing a few cats.
