One day I decided to be nice to a stray cat and feed it. This cat was black and white it seemed so nice. I picked it up to hold the sweet thing, it scratched the crap out of my hand. I flung it by it; it went about 30 yards and hit a fence and ran off. I was about to crush it in my hands but didn't want to kill it, so I Flung it. I have a NASTY scar across the top of my hand. The sucker scratched me so deep, I could see the white meat. Was driving home from Wal-Mart today and the Cat was roadKill next to the curb. It got run over by someone. Karma's a bitch, even for animals.
I'm sure an animal lover would scream at you for throwing a cat, but I can't say I wouldn't have the same reaction to an animal tearing my flesh up like that. That's why I don't go anywhere near strays
That cat was a jerk On the other hand tho, maybe it couldn't see well and got scared when you picked it up and since it cant see well that is also why it got hit by a car... we will never know.
