this is not funny.. sick kids, laughing at an animals expense!

Oh btw.. i found him because he sent me a question about his BP's stuck shed.. a shed he claims has been stuck for 3 months! i answered his question and gave him tips on how to up the humidity and where to get a gage hope he listens to it...

Did you flag it for abuse?

no because i want to find a way to report them... but i have no idea how? they should be in trouble for this.. and if i flag it, it will be taken down

That is cruel - I dn't know if you flagged it, but I did. I'm actually surprised its still up - I found it a couple weeks ago through an prevent animal abuse website.

Sometimes people do things with cats (the one where they are "mopping" with the cat) that don't hurt them or you can tell the cats don't care but these cats are meowing and trying to get away.

In the second video you even hear the person taping say its sad when the kitten keeps meowing and trying to get away.

how can we report this if we have no idea where in the US they are and their names?

They can't. If you look it has been brought up a number of times by PETA and other groups that the anonymity of youtube allows people to do this, and that there is nothing that can be done about it. PETA has contacted youtube official before and they won't give any information on the person, they will only take the video down. Unless they get stupid enough to post thier names and what not there is nothing that can be done.

I know, its really awful. I've gotten involved through PETA a couple times trying to do something about videos like that.

if you flag it, they take it down. If they take down enough videos due to them being flagged, they will suspend the account. You won't be able to find out the people's identiy over the net via youtube.
Flagging it is your best bet.

I flagged it too.
You could always try to befriend them and ask if they have myspace, that could sometimes get their name but even if you get a name I don't think a lot could be done.. People don't get in enough trouble for animal abuse.

Very true.

The best bet is to flag it, people like that do it for attention, if people aren't watching him he will have less motivation to do it. Not to mention if the video is left up people will make comments against him and that will just encourage him.

In the meantime hope one of those cats tears him apart while he's sleeping...

sigh.. its a shame those boys wont pay for their actions

it's been flagged.. thanks everyone

I'm sorry that wasn't the answer you were looking for, I know its frustrating that people get away with things like that.

omg, thats terrible!! What is wrong with people?! Dont they understand these are helpless animals? Poor kitties, makes me want to rescue them both :( Animal abuse is sickening

I thought the first one was kinda funny, the cat did not seem to mind. the second was mean because the cat wanted to get away.

Omg- those poor cats!! Thats horrible!! And oh, those boys WILL pay for their actions one way or another- karma baby!

Yeah, the first cat didn't seem to mind. I have spun my dog before...he loved it, but it wasn't continuous like that, it was just 180-360 degree circle, and just enough for me to run down the hall for him to chase! LOL he is quite funny.

I used to do that when I played with my cat but only for a couple seconds :-/.
