Woman accused of trying to sell 'gothic kittens'

Lest this article I've linked to seem too far off topic, when I read it I was struck by how kittens are protected against body modification but baby humans are not. Furthermore, had those kitten been circumcised, I bet dollars to donuts there would have been an outcry about it. Just something to ponder.

I remember reading that the first child abuse case that was actually prosecuted in the United States was done using laws against cruelty to animals.

I think when it's another species people can step back and see that it's wrong. Or if it's another country people can step back and see that it's wrong. That's why there's the disconnect in say FGM is wrong but doing it to our male infants is just fine.
