Nope, the cat is dead for sure.

Not to worry because I emailed PITA about it.

Justice for the poor dead kitty will soon be served.

[Arny Hulse]

no because its a fucking cat

[nostalgicecho]

The cat is not dead, it's in a state of what is called thenatosis, or playing dead. It's legs and head are restrained and it is scared in a situation where it cannot escape and this is a very common thing for animals to do.

There are also everal telltale signs that it is alive such as the orientation of it's ears, the muscles of which must be contracted to be in this position. The eyes are wide open, not partially. The jaw is shut and would fall open if there was no muscular action.

I would like a pita, or maybe a gyro. Anyway this was not a feral cat, it was a very domesticated kitty, someone's pet. That kitty was probably very very well treated. The kitty was trained, learned where the prision was and who it was supposed to go to, (via pets and food probably) and allowed them to ductape him, and even after that scampered hom to his owner in the prision...that's love. He's calm, i hope the kitty is ok, i will adopt him if needed rudager1066 aaaat yahoo.com, will scoop
