Cats declared equal to humans

28-10-2004, 16:43
In responce to the barbaric and fascist actions of the nation of DPUO, cats have been granted full political rights. Passed by an outstanding 568 votes to 43 in the Peoples House, the Bill for Feline Equality has been regarded by civil rights activists as a milestone and by right wing parties as insane.
Various Responces
Bill Yuckoff, Chair Person of the 'Cats are people too' campaign
This is a wonderful action that has set the stage for true equality amongst all creatures. After all, I can now marry my cat!
Romani Punchev, Leader of the 'Cats are Crap' pressure group
This is sheer and utter insanity. This is creating the nessercery enviroment for the takeover of our country by a BLOODY VOCAL AT NIGHT OUTSIDE MY WINDOW MINORITY! If we don't repeal this, the worlds cats will flood our facilities and our society will destroy itself in an appocalypse of fire and human cat mutants etc.
'Fluffles', a cat.
Yoooooooowl.
It remains to be seen how the international community will respond to these actions.
How very strange... and to think, our national food is the Iuthian kitten, welldone for a sunday roast.
Still, we can't complain. Welldone I guess...

She Walks In Booties
By George Gordon, Lord Byron's Cat.
She walks in booties, like a sprite
With pixie feet and fairy toes;
Her paws on ice will ne'er alight
Nor feel the chill of frigid snows;
And all the rays of winter's light
Shine on her collar's satin bows.
And from her soft enchanted fur
Exudes the scent of sweet shampoo
And precious oils distilled from myrrh
That give her fur it's magic hue:
I long to hear her charming purr,
And share the music of her mew.
But as I watch her take the air,
My spellbound vision starts to fade;
I feel at once a dark despair;
My feline heart is sore dismay'd;
For not content to make her fair,
Her doting owners had her spay'd!
To: Madame Meow, Chair of Inter-Species relations, Momanguise
Our studies have shown that cats in Iuthia are not sentient and as such come under the same catagory as other animals. Roast Kitten is a traditional recipe, much like Roast Lamb is a traditional meal in other nations.
We respect your laws and people will be informed of your nations rights for cats before visiting your nation on holiday (assuming thats even possible) however we there is little we can do to please you on this matter.
It is my hope that our customs do not cause any diplomatic rifts between our two nations.
Thanks,

Lauragrad renounces the Bill for Feline Equality. While fully committed to protecting rights of the cute and purry, Prime Minister Arual Hera is vehemently opposed to the civil union of Human and Feline. The PM also wishs to extend political protection to the victims of bestiality, made illegal by UN law-there really is a law aginst this as it is the suspected origns of syphilis. Further more it is suggested that a task force be established under the UN Security Council to combat this awful act against felinity.
In conjunction to this Lauragrad wishes to introduce to members the Declaration of Feline rights
1)That all Felines be declared equal before the nation state community
2) Encourages all members to engage in feline-human community projects to eliminate misuderstanding between species
3)Declares Felines have a right to protection from perverse rulers
4) forbides the use of Felines in lude sexual acts unless have felines full consent
5)Futher Forbides the use of Felines in military combat-especially the driving of tanks
6)Supports the Feline right to self determination amoung legitimate nation states
7) In conjuntion to clause 3, that beastiality be declared illegal and sanctions be imposed on violating members
8)That none of the above clauses may be taken out of context or used in a derogatory manner

We have developed a simplistic system of communication with our cats, the first being that various signs exhibited by our feline friends can be interpreted for attempts at communication.
The second, which will be used for voting purposes, involves two (or more) mice, each with the picture of a candidate attached. The candidate which is eaten recieves the vote.
We hope this clears up all such matters.

The Guilds would like to enquire as to how a feline's consent can be discovered, as far lude sexual activities go with feline friends. Will there be laws forbidding such sexual activities or will cross-species breeding be allowing?
Also, we would like to enquire as to whether there are cats joining the political parties?
The Guilds as a nation tend to keep hunting dogs/domesticaed wolves, although we have had an increase in the percentage of households with a cat ownership as of late, which you will no doubt be pleased to hear.

How much would said Bio-Tech cost per Unit?
Such advanced technology is not avalible for export, especially given the ease at which it could be used to facilitate biological warfare.
Services rendered by said technology are, however, avalible for export; costs depend on the desired modifications, the company providing the service, the actual methods involved, and market concerns - prices typicly go up when such things are 'in style', following general supply-and-demand dynamics.

Ah, but should not each cat have the choice open to them to choose for themselves, if they are not equal?
Besides, evoloution is not a liniar progression, but a mere result of natural selection and/or selective breeding; there is not assurance that your cats will evolve as you or they would like - indeed, their decendents may become something far removed from what they are, quite possibly for the worst.
And, indeed, the current generation - and those that follow for a great many years - will never benifit from nature's slow, imprefect progress.
With all that in mind, would it not be criminal to deny your feline equals the chance to better themselves?

The move the recognize cat equality in the land of the barking spiders had met with tough opposition. Not only do spiders not appreciate being chased around the house by cats who are stricken with curiousity (and we know what happens to curious cats! :sniper: ) but now it appears that another powerful lobby has come out against cat equality.
The national tuna lobby has come out in protest to this in conjunction with the less powerful ("don't call us mahi!") dolphin lobby because of the potential increased consumption of the flesh of their bretheren from the sea. The tuna lobby has financed a series of commercials featuring Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells, (a renowned cat hater...he hates panthers, bengals, lions, jaguars, and packers just because he is homophobic and that sounds gay to him) has been seen as the chosen spokesman on these commercials for the tuna lobby.
The government of the Barking Spiders is remaining quiet on this issue until a poll can be taken to tell us what our position is on this matter.
