HEARTWARMING !
I first found this story here: http://news.asiaone.com/news/lifestyle/concerned-child-writes-vet-cute-email-after-her-cat-drank-strawberry-milk
HEARTBREAKING = DISGUST
After reading about the masking tape cat, and in today's print edition of the local main paper, a cat killer who was sentenced, my day went awful.
http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/cat-killer-admits-hurling-feline-from-sixth-storey
What's disgusting is, after throwing the cat down 6 floors, he went to the ground floor to continue slamming the half-dead cat on the ground twice - I guess he just wanted to make sure the cat is dead, perhaps so that the cat CANNOT file a police report against him. Ridiculous!
This is an excerpt of the report.
"A food and beverage captain hurled a cat from a sixth-storey staircase landing after first luring it with cat food, a court heard.
In the early hours of May 26 last year,
Fajar Ashraf Fajar Ali, 25, lured the female shorthair cat into a lift at Block 884, Tampines Street 83 to play with it.
He took the lift to the sixth storey and led the cat to the staircase landing. At first he played with the cat but when it tried to escape, he lured it back with more food."
All that INTELLIGENCE of killing off the victim (he must have watched too many CRIME drama), didn't protect him. Perhaps the crime series he watched didn't have a story-line in a built up city with CCTVs and neighbours in close proximity.
To put it bluntly, a young girl, young in age, young in maturity demonstrated more COURAGE and MORAL CODING than this 25 year old wannabe.
Questions to ask:
Where did he school?
What did he do in school, in terms of activities?
It's time someone take stock of how apples go bad, because ONE BAD APPLE SPOILS THE BUSHEL.
In a society so tight in terms of people per square km, it's better to be discerning, even with the people we see everyday. Had a witness thought it was just a man playing with a stray cat, he would have walked away a free man. Never mind that, he would have walked away thinking he did very well for himself i.e. murdered a cat and escaped.
Is it paranoid to take a second look? NO.
There are many wolves in sheeps clothing.
So, I salute that little girl for giving me faith again, that the world might have gone to putts, but there is still salvation.
