Watch: Cat Is Too Fat to Get Out of the Bathtub

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


Most people are not aware of it, yet overfeeding one's pet counts as animal abuse just as much as starving it does.

This is why this video showing a cat, which is simply too fat to get out of the bathtub on its own, is bound to cause some people to at least frown.

Despite its struggles, the not-so-slender feline cannot gain momentum, and remains stuck in the tub. As one can easily notice, it is not very happy about the situation it finds itself in.

Interestingly enough, the cat's owners simply laugh at it and settle for filming the entire incident rather than helping the cat.

Granted, pets can sometimes be quite funny, but having a few laughs on account of one's dog or cat should not go hand in hand with stressing the animal and making it feel uncomfortable.

Horrible people. I would take that cat in a minute and give him the home he deserves.

You want my thoughts? Well here it is...these people are a$$#@!& and should be punished! They purposely did this to this poor cat for a laugh? Classic animal abuse if you ask me and they should be punished by the law! And the cat needs a new home with caring people.

I have seen too many videos on you tube of cats and dogs people have made who think it's quite hilarious to over-stress them. I think the people should be found and fined substantially for animal cruelty, and in some cases have the animal removed from the owners. If people don't know enough about the animals to recognize that they do have feelings, they should not have a pet.
