I am worried about folks thinking that they are gassing the cat to harm it?????

I hope that you see more sunshines and rainbows in your lives and be more optimistic. Humans aren't always evil.

Well, based on your title, what else was I to think? I was fearful they were cursing this cat with intellect instead of allowing it to exist in a state of blissful orange.

Enlightened Orange cats are chaos demons.

My first thought when I heard the machine was nebulizer. Pretty creative setup 👍

Well you could of gave an explanation instead of posting it with no context.

Not knowing + being curious vs. mentally jumping to “this animal is being abused?” are two different things. One is normal reaction, the other one probably should stop watching random videos on reddit for a bit and go off to mentally relax.

I also had never seen this method of treatment before and was curious what was going on. The cat is obviously anxious- who wouldn't be being inside a water jug?! The title didn't quell any initial reactions of concerns either.

I understand the point of yours and the parent comment were about people jumping to conclusions. However, I do think a healthy awareness of inhumane situations and skeptism is warranted. There are absolutely bad actors who are content creators and dgaf about animal treatment and just want followers and viral videos.

Huh? Just asking and being a lil concerned means something is wrong with me? The hell is wrong with you?

Needing to relax to clear our mind of negative preconceptions is something we all need to do from time to time. :)

I was relaxed ? I just saw something with no context and now people are acting like Im wrong for having some concern.

I have asthma and knew exactly what was happening but there was a little part of my brain that was thinking about the Don’t F*ck with Cats Documentary… I should probably lay off the true crime

To be fair I knew a bloke who trapped strays and vacuum sealed/sucked the air out to put them down. It's not that far fetched.

Since you guys wanna jump on my dick **I'm obviously not saying that's the case here**, I'm just stating it isn't far fetched as animal abuse is common.

No this isn't in conjunction with anything that went down on facebook, this only similarity is the air was sucked out of where the cat was held. No air tight bag, no vacuum itself and it was done as strays we're picking off his smaller poultry not because he wanted to. Just because a viral case happened a few year agos doesn't discredit the fact that people do this. We lived rural, far away from any vets as they were a luxury at the time. You either drowned them, shot them or did this (which was viewed as more humane.) Even my father did this exact thing before.

Downvote or claim I took inspiration from that case all you want, that won't change the fact that shit like this happens.

This story is a well known internet story from several years ago. so sure you do.

Not related to that at all, this wasn't for sick pleasure or related to any of those posts on facebook (I believe it was). I knew of a farmer who used this method to kill strays, not using a vacuum sealed bag but a box that was airtight. Matter of fact he used an aircompressor not a vacuum. It's almost like more than one person is capable of killing animals in a similar way. This and drowning used to actually be quite common back in the day. You're oddly hostile over this.

I hope you can overcome that urge to assume the worst in every single person you meet. It must not be good for your heart or mind.

u/[deleted] Mar 26 '26

Where did I say this is what I thought was happening? I just said it's not outrageous for people to assume something sinister when animal abuse is common. Me saying I knew someone who put down cats in this manner doesn't mean I assume the worst from everyone
