Just read this, and it just reaffirms my belief that many otherwise intelligent people simply have no common sense. If you're a veterinarian, just what would possess you to post a picture of the tomcat, that you just arrowed, on Facebook, and brag about it??? Texas Vet Fights To Keep License A woman from Brenham who posted on Facebook about killing a cat with an arrow is fighting this week to keep her veterinary license. Kristen Lindsey is taking part in an administrative hearing before the Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners that is expected to last three days, KAGS-TV reports. Lindsey sparked outrage in April 2015 when she posted a picture on Facebook in which she was holding an orange-and-white tomcat that had been shot in the head with an arrow. “My first bow kill LOL,” the post said. “The only good feral tomcat is one with an arrow through its head! Vet of the year award … gladly accepted.” Lindsey was later fired from the veterinary clinic she worked at. A veterinary board committee recommended that her license be revoked, but she has been able to continue practicing as a vet while appealing her suspension. Lindsey and the board attempted to reach a settlement in mediation last month, but their failure to do so resulted in this week’s hearing. The board called witnesses Monday who said that the cat was their pet, Tiger, and not a stray, KAGS-TV reported. An attorney for Lindsey argued that it was a different cat. An Austin County grand jury declined to indict Lindsey on animal-cruelty charges in June. Obviously you're relatively new here. Posters have posted lots of pics over the years of offed kitties utilizing various methodology.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with killing feral cats and there is absolutely nothing wrong with posting pictures of your dead feral cat either.
This is just another example of PC gone insane.

I like how the neighbors tried to sue her for shanking their pet.

I don't hate cats, but I have to grudgingly admit that's pretty funny.

When I was a kid there were books on shooting at our Burien Satellite Library of the King County Library system.
In one of those books, it explained how a boy was to do "plinking" with a 22. One of the targets was a feral cat.
They probably got rid of that book before they got the unisex bathrooms.

the OP link was the Dallas News dated yesterday so I think it's new. ok the date is for the story of the verdict recently decided. The kill posting was april last year. I knew my memory was scratching at something. I usually don't read postings more than 3 sentences. I just can't take my eyes off the hummingbird feeder that long.
