Our Rooster RIP




It seems we jumped to conclusions re Rooster being shot. There was an entry wound and as the hunters are out in force we wronly presumed that is what had happened to him. He has had an autopsy and it appears that he was stabbed. It can't have been accidental as the wound was behind his shoulder ,,, so he couldn't have jumped and impaled himself. Poor Rooster, he was so friendly he would have gone to anyone who called him ,, I think this is even more sinsister and wicked than being shot :-(

oh my! You're right, that is so much worse than thinking it was a careless mistake. On purpose, I can't even believe someone would do that to a helpless animal like that. I am so sorry.

What sort of twisted freak stabs a cat!!???! Do you think it was some sort of would-be Halloween sacrifice? Here in the states, this time of year cats are at risk of dumbass teenagers harming them. That is awful. I'm so sorry.

So sorry to hear about Rooster , loosing a pet iswho is so loved is like loosing a family member and bad enough when they go due to old age but this must be even worse for you. I think its down to this nanny state we live in kids have no discipline as even parents can't discipline their kids without them crying child abuse, we never suffered from the occassional clip around the legs and if a parent etc is going to abuse a child they will do it regardless its only the responsible parent who would like to chatise and discilpline their children who are stopped not the abusers. If we went back a few years where discipline is concerned we would all be better off and horrible things like this wouldn't happen. Thinking of you and sorry for your loss Julye

Oh Lorraine, that's just awful news. Poor Rooster. There are some really cruel people out there, but I'm a great believer in what goes around comes around and they'll get their just rewards sooner or later.
Sending Hugs, I'm sure you are all devastated.
