RSPCA hunts for pink cat owner in Swindon

Featured Replies

If they are pissed of that somebody dyed a cat pink, they shouldn't name it Pink.

Now it will always have that name. Call it whitey, or honky or something.

SPCAs and the Humane Society and those places tend to do that though. I almost wonder if it's a requirement. Another recent example is a black cat found hiding underneath a rock during wildfires in Colorado. It was alive, but obviously had a few burns. What did they name it? Yip... SIZZLE.

It is almost as though they are trying to detract away from the seriousness of what has happened. They should give it a normal name.

Owner of pink cat used 'harmless food dye'

The owner of a pink cat found in a Swindon garden has made a plea for the return of her pet.

 

Natasha Gregory said she bathed the white cat with "harmless" food dye because pink was her favourite colour.

 

The RSPCA had been trying to trace the owner of the cat, named oi! Kitty, after criticising the "sick prank".

 

Ms Gregory, who has pink hair, said she loved oi! Kitty and wanted her back. The RSPCA said it was looking into the matter and would not comment further.

 

Ms Gregory said she loved the colour pink.

 

"My mum wanted me to wear pretty dresses but I wanted to climb trees. As I got older I saw it as a womanly and feminine colour and now I just love it - pink and fluffy."

 

She said she got the cat from her sister and had decided to give it a bath to wash off the smell of her sister's house.

 

"I had seen this programme on TV where two white dogs were dyed pink and as I was bathing her it just clicked.

 

"I ran downstairs and found red food colouring in the cupboard. So I popped it on just like a bit of shampoo - there was no restraining the cat or anything - it was just like a normal bath.

 

"She left pink footprints all over my house. I reckon she looked cute," she said.

 

The plight of the pink cat generated widespread media interest and Ms Gregory said she called the Sun newspaper because she wanted to tell her side of the story.

 

"I was annoyed because people would associate me with being this evil, horrible animal dumper.

 

"I love my cat - that cat is fed better than most people. I wanted people to know she wasn't harmed at all.

 

"The dye will be out in three weeks and she will be back to her white self," she said.

 

"I wont be doing it again - I was so shocked to see my cat on the news. I thought I'd never see her again."

Well, she certainly doesn't sound like she did it for a prank. A bit kooky but if it was only food dye, kitty should be ok.

Clearly a chavette. No surprise there whatsoever.:dozey:

The cats name was oi! Kitty.

Did she specifically request that the oi began with a lower case letter?

"I ran downstairs and found red food colouring in the cupboard. So I popped it on just like a bit of shampoo - there was no restraining the cat or anything - it was just like a normal bath."
Normal bath? NORMAL BATH?!? Cat's aren't supposed to have baths in the first place!!!

 

 

dumb beeeeaaatch

 

If it was food dye and mixed in with shampoo I don't see what the fuss is, just because it's an 'interesting' news story the RSPCA have to stamp their utter disgust on it.

I disagree, I think she's a knife wielding yob and a hoodie, and everything that's wrong with broken britain. :dozey:

 

Seriously, why is she clearly chav?

Well I hope it was special cat shampoo, because regular shampoo is bad for cats, even toxic. My gut tells me this chick wasn't bright enough to get the special cat shampoo.

 

BTW, it's nice to have you back Reilly. :nice:

Thank you :nice:

 

Because I know there is such a thing as cat shampoo, pretty much figured it doesn't hurt to shampoo them (Though most cats go nuts at the sight of water so yeah, fair enough, it is nature for them to clean themselves after all).
