I'd like to stuff this man in a 12/6.

[Robeysays]

1. who would hurt kittens?

seriously was this guy's last name satan?

[emilyg]

2. Part of the punishment should be

to never have a pet again.

[Maru Kitteh]

21. Amen, and no children either.

[leftstreet]

3. Cats are notorious stoners

[Robeysays]

5. makes yo brain feel siiillllllyyeeehhhhh!

im hungry

[Robeysays]

4. lol same page:::

"Beer-Can Bust: Police in Tampa, Fla., arrested these two men for allegedly hurling a can of Bud Light at an unmarked police car. Authorities say Andrew Rickert, right, swerved his vehicle toward an officer's car, while Charles Thomas, left, flung the can out the window. Both were charged with throwing a deadly missile at an occupied vehicle."




love a good party.

[dysfunctional press]

8. i threw a large mcdonald's orange soda into a guy's car once...

i don't remember the particulars, but he pulled up next to me on my left, put his passenger window down and started shout threats and obscenities...i had the large soda in my hand, the light turned green, and i did what came natural...:shrug:

[DS1]

6. Clam bake!

I used to have a roommate who had a cat which would sit next to me while I was packing a bowl and wait for his hit.qq

[Xithras]

9. Yep, we used to get my cat stoned.

When it was little, we'd just blow smoke in its direction. When it got bigger, it would come running at the sound of a Zippo being flicked. I've been told since that the behavior isn't uncommon...some cats like being stoned just like some humans do.


Never thought to stuff it inside a bong though.

[GillesDeleuze]

60. my cat in college

would damn near kiss me for a hit.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

56. Years ago when I smoked, one of my cats would run from where ever he was when he smelled the pot.

I never deliberately turned him on but he certainly loved the contact! :)

[Ganja Ninja]

61. Every cat I've ever known who's owner smoked pot would always

come running when we lit up. They really do seem to like it.

[tangent90]

7. Coulda been worse: bong in kitteh

:rofl:

[dysfunctional press]

10. the title is VERY misleading....it's not like the guy shoved the kitten into his graphix 3-footer..

he basically put the cat in a box and blew smoke into it...how many teenage stoners HAVEN'T done that in the past...?:shrug:

and for those that would like to do the very same thing to the stoners- my guess is that they would welcome it with open arms lungs. :hippie:

[AndrewP]

17. Yeah, what's wrong with that?

Except for the whole fucking up the cat's respiratory system thing. As long as it's a good stoner story, then all is well.

:sarcasm:

[dysfunctional press]

18. how does it fuck up the cat's respiratory system? please explain.

:shrug:

if pot is so bad for the respiratory system...why was it prescribed to asthmatics?

[Baikonour]

39. What? LOGIC? How dare you!

[dysfunctional press]

48. exactly.

what logic?

:rofl: :rofl:

[FedUpWithIt All]

82. The cat has been examined and HAS lung damage. She is only 6 months old.

[emilyg]

50. Gee - is that all he did - what a saint

Hope he enjoys paying the $400 fine and looking like a dumbass.

[dysfunctional press]

52. looking like a dumbass is right- for getting in trouble over it.

PLENTY of people get their cats stoned in similar ways EVERY day with nary a legal problem.

what a dumbass is right...:rofl:

[marshall]

62. In Houston they're doing it to their kids

When I was little my parents used to go camping with a group of friends who used to get their kicks letting their toddler children sip the beer and then provide entertainment by stumbling and mumbling around the campfire. My mother was always the wet blanket of the party (from their point of view) and never let me participate.

[BuyingThyme]

11. What's a 12/6?

[dysfunctional press]

13. 2

i've always been good with fractions.

[FedUpWithIt All]

14. I think the poster meant a 12" x 6 " box.

That was the size of the "bong".

[emilyg]

19. Right. Thank you.

[dysfunctional press]

24. a cat is a lot smaller than a person, though....

shouldn't the dimensions be proportionate?

and btw- i doubt that most stoners that would do it to a cat would mind very much having it done to them...they'd probably relish the opportunity.

[FedUpWithIt All]

53. So basically, you think it is ok for people to FORCE others to get high?

Does that just apply to you own drug of choice or can any drug user force others using their own preferred chemical?

Does it only apply to cats? How about all animals. Hell, why not include infants? They are tiny, could fit into little water filled boxes and probably could use a good FORCED mellowing. No? I mean YOU like it so of course they will to...

:eyes:

I have an opinion of people who think it is humorous to force things on (helpless?) others. You might not like it so i will keep it to myself. Have a nice day.

:puke:

[uppityperson]

42. Too bad you're ignoring me. That was very funny.

You should have asked what the 2 words were before assuming the worst.

[FedUpWithIt All]

55. Did you mean to respond to me?

:shrug:

I am not following.

[uppityperson]

70. No, sorry, clicked reply in wrong place, sorry. You are right, that made no sense. Meant post above

sorry, clicked in wrong post, meant the one above you. 12/6=2 was funny. Sorry for the confusion.

[FedUpWithIt All]

76. No problem.

:hi:

[dysfunctional press]

12. "I'd like to stuff this man in a 12/6."

ummm- what's a 12/6? :shrug:

a 2?

[DefenseLawyer]

15. I think the guy built a kind of stoner hyperbolic chamber for his cat.

Misguided? Perhaps. But I don't think his aim was to be cruel, it was to be kind.

[dysfunctional press]

25. and as nick lowe even once opined...

sometimes, you have to be cruel to be kind...just in the right measure. :hippie:

[cherokeeprogressive]

16. Was the cat's name Indica?

[Iggo]

28. Oh, dear. I'd forgotten about that fad.

:rofl:

[Maru Kitteh]

20. $400 dollar fine is nowhere NEAR enough punishment for this asshole

He should have to go to counseling for several months, at the very least, and spend a few days in jail.

[dysfunctional press]

32. what's your opinion of catnip?

should people who try to get their cats high with catnip be held to the same type of punishment?

[havocmom]

22. How long before Kitty Bong Boxes are available at Petsmart?

:smoke:

[AyanEva]

23. :(

*runs off to snuggle her cat*

That little kitten is adorable.

[Pavulon]

26. Quite stupid, but industrious

I can say building a "green room" for a cat would not be top on my list of things to do...

I know people who lost dope, had room mates "steal it" or other issues arise from a cat taking it from their pants or counter and hiding under the couch and eating it.

[lonestarnot]

27. People have gone insane are are going more insane every day.

[Orrex]

29. I hear that the bastard also dropped a tabby of acid

Yes, I'm going to keep on posting it until it's funny, dammit!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

58. LOL. I liked it.

[FedUpWithIt All]

64. When i was 17 my mother had a bad trip off of acid that someone "slipped" her.

I spent the entire evening reassuring her that spiders were not climbing out of my eyes, leaving behind bloody trails. She screamed when she thought the bed was flipping upside down to drop us into an abyss. I had to lay towels down on the kitchen tile to form a "bridge" so she would cross the razor blades (tile squares) to go to into the bathroom.

It is not a LOL for everyone.

[Orrex]

69. It's all in how you tell it

A good friend, while trying to get his alcoholism under control, fell asleep in a friend's basement and woke, delirious and shaking, in the pre-dawn darkness. He was sure that he saw Death standing in front of him, and he could hear the Reaper's measured, rasping breaths. This went on for quite some time, while my friend was crying and too horrified to move.

Then the sun rose, and he realized that Death was a cardboard standup of Joe Paterno, and the breathing was the sound of the nearby aquarium filter.


I'm sorry about your mom--that's an experience that no kid should have to have. But, really, we could find unhappy precedents for just about every human experience; should we therefore declare all subjects off-limits to laughter?

[FedUpWithIt All]

78. It is the fact that someone forced another into the experience

that i find without humor.

If someone enjoys a hallucinogenic and they CHOOSE to have one i have no issue. I have serious problems with non-consensual exposure to a variety of things. Things such as drugs and sex should be experienced ONLY with the consent of the person involved. In the instances of drug exposure, it can be physically dangerous (even life threatening) to expose someone unwittingly to a chemical substance.

I get that in the case above the poster was a willing participant. I wonder what the odds are of a person happy about exposure to acid without their knowledge or consent.

[conscious evolution]

30. I bet the people who

think what he did is a bad thing think nothing of getting their cats high on catnip.

[dysfunctional press]

31. GREAT point.

my cats get to experience both.

[conscious evolution]

34. As I was reading the OP

I was fighting off one of my cats.
She was wanting another hit.

[emilyg]

33. Are you serious?

[dysfunctional press]

36. what's the difference?

high is high. and cats dig both.

[emilyg]

38. Some of my cats like catnip and

some don't. I don't put my cats in a small box and force them to consume.

[dysfunctional press]

46. the cat we had in college loved getting in his 'hit box'...

when we were partying, he'd hop in it on his own.

[Gemini Cat]

35. Catnip is for cats. I've never seen a cat fire up a bong, have you?

Pot is for humans if that's what they want, that's their choice. An animal doesn't have a choice when it comes to someone's pot.

I'd whip someone's dumbass if they got my cat high.

[conscious evolution]

37. I have seen a cat eat pot plants.And you can too.

There is a DVD out called 100% Home Grown starring Billy Bob Thornton.
On the DVD in the "extras" section there is an interview with some really old guy extolling the virtues of pot.In the background on his desk there is a small potted pot plant.During his spiel his cat is sitting on his desk EATING the pot plant.Then when the old guy fires up a joint the cat gets in his face wanting a hit.
Next time you are in a video store look it up.

Cats like pot.
Definitely sounds WTF but its true.

[Withywindle]

40. That doesn't surprise me at all.

There's a big range of herbs that cats love. Catnip, valerian, plain ol' grass (I mean the basic lawn kind).

I don't think they should be FORCED to partake, however, which is what this guy did. That's very different from having a cat that voluntarily comes up to the circle and basically says, "Dude, don't bogue, where's my hit?" (as I've seen many do).

[Sebastian Doyle]

41. Cats don't call it "pot" though.

They call it "human nip"

[dysfunctional press]

47. "catnip is for cats"

:rofl: :rofl:

it's actual name isn't 'catnip' it's only called that because it fucks cats up- and pot will do the same thing for them.
and plenty of cats like both or either. like most animals, they just like to get intoxicated when they can.

[FedUpWithIt All]

54. The following is my response to another poster on this thread. It applies here as well.

Apparently some of you think it is great fun to FORCE a high on others.
Does that just apply to you own drug of choice or can any drug user force others using their own preferred chemical?

Does it only apply to cats? How about all animals. Hell, why not include infants? They are tiny, could fit into little water filled boxes and probably could use a good FORCED mellowing. No? I mean YOU like it so of course they will to...

:eyes:

I have an opinion of people who think it is humorous to force things on (helpless?) others. You might not like it so i will keep it to myself. Have a nice day.

:puke:

[emilyg]

57. Bravo.

I've seen pics of people arrested for giving joints to toddlers. What kind of people get helpless stoned?

[FedUpWithIt All]

67. Sadly, there ARE all kinds.

x(

[Hassin Bin Sober]

59. It's been a while since someone slipped a hit of acid in my beer....

....or slipped me a pot brownie...... you can't rape the willing... ah, I miss those days.

But I get your point. I wouldn't do that to my dog. I think it would be cruel to get an animal high as I was the last time my cop friend confiscated some killer weed and smoked it with me - I wouldn't want my dog hearing voices.

[FedUpWithIt All]

65. Thank you for understanding that there IS a difference between a willing participant

and forcing helpless beings.

I fear some cannot make that distinction.


I responded to you above regarding the acid. My mother's experience with a similar action was not so pleasant.

[dysfunctional press]

63. what about people who force catnip on their cats?

and as for the pot thing- our cat in college liked the getting high thing- he'd come up and purr and hop in his box when we got out the bong...true- the first time he didn't ask for it- but how many cats 'ask' for catnip before they know what it is?

[FedUpWithIt All]

66. Catnip acts like a pheromone to a cat. It is NOT a drug.

Apples and oranges. Catnip is not mind altering.

You introduced an animal to a mind altering substance without it's permission. Under what limitations do you find this type of behavior acceptable? The assholes who do blow smoke into a toddlers face? Acceptable? Are YOU the one to define when it is acceptable or not to force a mind altering substance on a being who is not able to ask you to stop if it is uncomfortable, frightening...?

I find it distasteful that anyone would do this to a helpless person/animal.

[dysfunctional press]

71. toddlers are not cats...

please don't have children until you learn the difference.

and btw- pheromones are also- "mind-altering".

[FedUpWithIt All]

75. I have four children 16, 11, 10 and 1. I also have 2 cats.

I know the difference.

Catnip IS NOT mind altering. It has NO affect on the majority of cats under 6 months.

I am fairly positive that you know the difference between a pheromone and mild hallucinogenic with psychoactive properties such as marijuana. I suspect that you choose not to acknowledge it because it would mean that your argument comparing the two is mute and invalid.

Good day to you.

[conscious evolution]

72. Nepetalactone

When cats smell catnip they exhibit a range of behaviors that may include sniffing, licking and chewing the plant, head shaking, chin and cheek rubbing, head rolling, and body rubbing. This psychosexual reaction lasts for 5-15 minutes and cannot be evoked again for an hour or more after exposure.

http://chemistry.about.com/library/weekly/aa103001a.htm

Sounds like kitty Ecstasy to me.

[FedUpWithIt All]

77. Hmmm, sounds like an exposure to a pheromone to me.

A human can have a similar pheromone reaction to another human.

Catnip is not potentially life threatening, nor is it possible for it to be permanently disabling. It does not cause confusion, jaw clenching, rapid eye movement, dehydration, hyperthermia or heart/kidney failure...EVER.

Ecstasy has the potential for all of the above.

Not exactly the same thing.

[conscious evolution]

79. I knew it!

Freakin cats got better drugs then we do.

Bastards.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

73. Stoners will defend any other stoner's behavior with all sorts of bullshit theories....

....they concoct because they are high all the time. Seriously, it strikes to a complex they have. But it's the "fault" of the "man" for giving them that complex.

They'll probably file a class action suit someday, if they could actually stop eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch out of the box and playing Sega Genesis all day.

[omega minimo]

43. Why are you posting this?

[emilyg]

44. Why do you think?

[omega minimo]

45. do you think?

[emilyg]

49. Probably more and clearer than you do.

I don't like any form of animal abuse. Sue me.

[ContinentalOp]

51. God, what an idiot.

A cat does nothing to filter the smoke. He should have used the fish tank.

[Smith_3]

68. I think there are many potheads who do stupid shit to animals.

I know a guy who supposably gave his dog LSD. The dog then jumped out of the window and killed itsself. Could have been a made-up bullshit story though.

[Politicalboi]

74. We were smoking dope one day years ago

And we had 3 kittens. My friend had been doing her nails and there were cotton balls on the floor. One of the kitties went to sniff it and when cats sniff they put out their tongue. Well the cotton ball stuck to his tongue and I said "Look the cat has cotton mouth". We would blow smoke at them, but never hurt them and put them in a bong.

[Mari333]

80. its not funny, as some people think it is, its abuse.

and I hope this guy gets jail time.

[LeftyFingerPop]

81. I'll chime in here. Getting your pets drunk or high is abuse. Period. n/t
