I will have to go eat a kitty sandwich and get back to you on this one.

It won't be so bad if PETA didn't put down real kittens every year, or if the person in charge didn't use insulin created from testing done on animals

""Most parents would never dream of spending a weekend torturing kittens for fun with their families, but hooking a sea kitten through the mouth and dragging her through the water is the same as hooking a kitten through the mouth and dragging her behind your car," Byrne says."

Man talk about somebidy who needs to get laid, Jeez how much free time to they have to waste it coming up with ideas like this?  I doubt I could reel in a fish at say 20- 30 MPH,

Status: offline 		Is there a higher instance of fish abuse than cat abuse because this would only make sense if that were the case. I think most fish owners treat them fairly well i.e. you don't often hear of fish abuse to the same extent you hear of the abuse of other animals people own. Maybe there is a lot of fish abuse going on undetected.

Okay Okay okay, So let me get this right. Fish are Sea Kittens...... Okay So since I fish and am okay with fishing and usually fish in Places where the fish are transplanted for the purpose of fishing does this now mean I can Fish for ACTUAL Kittens?

Wasn't it in Young Einstein that they were making Kitten Pot Pies?

I mean who what the Brain Child behind this idea I think they should be euthanized.

I gotta agree with ya on that one.

are cows now going to be called "Grass Gerbils" WTF?

Leave my food chain the fuck alone will ya. God gave me the opposable thumb so that I could grasp a club, and subdue the food type animals and eat the wee little bastards.

He did not give me the opposable thumb to lift a salad fork.

Gwyn,
who could not find the Dennis Leary "Animal auditions" skit from No cure for cancer.

Status: offline 		I heard about this on the radio last week.  What a crock of kitten shit.  I don't even eat fish, but calling them "sea kittens" wouldn't deter me from chowing on them if I were so inclined.

"I don't see fish as sea kittens; I see them as food," says 12-year-old Chastity Haskins.


ETA just checked out the site, they have a "create-a-sea-kitten" part, where you can give your "seakitten" a water dish, yaknow... in case he gets thirsty
