Gotta wonder though, do cats get the munchies?

Neb. deputies say man stuffed cat inside 'bong'

OMAHA, Neb. – A man who tried to cool out his hyper cat by stuffing her into a boxlike homemade bong faces cruelty charges — and catcalls from animal lovers. Lancaster County sheriff's deputies responding to a domestic disturbance call Sunday alleged they saw 20-year-old Acea Schomaker smoking marijuana through a piece of garden hose attached to a duct-taped, plastic glass box in which the cat had been stuffed.

"This cat was just dazed," Sgt. Andy Stebbing said. "She was on the front seat of the cop car, wrapped in a blanket, and never moved all the way to the humane society."

Schomaker told deputies 6-month-old Shadow was hyper and he was trying to calm her down. The contraption she had been stuffed inside was 12 inches by 6 inches. Shadow was timid but in good condition Monday at the Capital Humane Society, executive director Bob Downey said.

"What the human mind doesn't invent, huh?" Downey said.

Schomaker, who was released from jail after paying a $400 fine on the arrest warrant, faces drug and misdemeanor animal cruelty charges. He did not immediately respond to phone messages left Monday seeking comment.

It doesn't, although stupid is often present in large amounts regardless of drug usage. ;)

No, it doesn't. It just so happens that some people who smoke are mentally deficient to begin with; lacking normal cognitive capacities.

cat was hyper, and still this person managed to get kitty into a 12 inch by 6 inch glass box.

sorry - you can't easily get a full-grown CALM cat into something that small. If kitty was hyper, she'd have the scratches to prove she's had to forcefully contain poor kitty. If she doesn't have at least 2 scratches on her hands or arms, she's lying. she's lying through her teeth or was stoned before she started.

a six month old cat isn't that big.

and there are some species that are not that big even as adults.

Poor kitty... :(

didn't see that thread... but according to this (http://www.cat-world.com.au/Catnip.htm)...

Catnip is a perennial herb. It is a member of the Mint family Labiatae, it is also a distant relation of marijuana. It is well known for it's ability to get cat's high. It is native to Europe & Asia, however has become naturalised in America & Canada after being introduced. There are approximately 250 species of Catnip, and this figure doesn't include hybrid species. Some of the more readily available ones are: may explain why your kitty liked your weed...

and this little fact...
One interesting fact is that when sniffed, catnip will stimulate kitty, however when eaten it will act as a sedative. so what would've happened if he mixed catnip with his hyper kitty's food?

hmm... Marijuana is illegal, but catnip isn't... catnip bong?

No, it doesn't.

Oh yes I've seen plenty of cats who enjoyed getting stoned - but putting that little kitten in that moronic device was indeed cruel and stupid.

And yes I have known a few highly sensitive people who could get nicely high on catnip.

That poor kitty, I hope it will recover. But I bet the lack of oxygen and all that dang smoke will do some kind of damage. Unless there was a gaping hole somewhere in it for fresh air to flow .. but it woulnd've been a working bong had there been.

What a mean little punk he is. He looks like an asshole in his pic and future multiple felon.

It takes a sorry individual to get a kick out of abusing animals.
