O.K. Girls.... admit it.. I trapped you. I suggest that you all have a good look at the quality of your subject matter before rushing into print... Providing you have finished your domestic chores first....
If you dont have a man to look after..... Well, I can quite understand..
Oh crap...I gotta go....I'm burning my hubby's shirt on the ironing board!

Although, I do have a problem with cruely killing them. That is a huge issue with me!
I agree completely. Dogs and cats are meat eaters. If you love your pet you need to feed them meat. If you didn't feed your pet meat then you would not be considered an animal lover as well as you would not be caring for your pet as would be best.
I also agree though - whichever meat is used - the animal should be handled as caring as possible and without cruelty.

That does it! I'm taking some burger out of the freezer right now and I'm gonna make some tomorrow. Don't have any american cheese, so it's either swiss or provolone.
What would you do MMS?
Hey ' Montana ' ........ Why not try a nice hunk of Roo... plust your various cheeses....
Actually I've tasted Roo - it was very good actually.

But I do feel guilty when I eat meat knowing that the animal I just ate probably was partially butchered before it was even dead or that it was beaten to death on the floor of some nasty slaughter house.
Humans are the only animals who torture their food before eating it.
I've seen cats do the same thing to mice - torture them before killing them.

Well, cats are from the devil so they don't count. :wink:

Well they kind of play with them - sort of let them go and then pounce on them again - after 15 minutes they will kill it and leave it as a gift for you. Being the animal lover I am, I rescued a mouse that was being tortured by my friend's cat.

I hope you bought that mouse a prosthetic leg to replace the one chewed off by the cat. Unless you did you are nothing but a hypocritical "animal lover."
Corporations that sell mouse prosthesis have to make money too you know.

Actually, to a cat...... it is playtime. The result may be the same, but the motive is different.

I don't know - for some people it probably is playtime too!
Sadly, Linkat, you are most likely very, very correct on that.
Emeril plays with his food. Bam!
Turned into another gun thread.
Do you know who Emeril is???
Actually, when I read his post...my first reaction was to tell him to bring his ass to Alabama and I'd kick it......in between doing my dishes and of course cooking supper for that man of mine! :wink:
I love hunting. There's no better way to get in tune with your environment. You simply cannot do it by simply observing. Killing and gutting/cleaning isn't the fun part, it's the hard part. The fun part is being out there, and enjoying the rewards of your efforts, and knowing you are part of the cycle of life.
No, you aren't part of the cycle of life until you do your own dying.

We are all dying. Is that a threat parados?
