Full Version: Bonsai Kittens
I was just sent this from a friend:
It was attached to a petition which I added my name to, but after I went to the site I had a hard time believing it was true. Has anyone ever heard of this?
And if anyone is interested in signing the petition, message me and I can email it to you.

A site that we were able to shut last year
has returned. We have to try to shut it down
again! A Japanese man in New York breeds
and
sells kittens that are called BONSAI CATS.
That would sound cute, if it weren't
kittens that were put in to little bottles after
being given a muscle relaxant and then
locked up
for the rest of their lives. The cats are fed
through a straw and have a small tube for
their
feaces. The skeleton of the cat will take on the
form of the bottle as the kitten grows. The cats
never get the opportunity to move. They are
used as original and exclusive souvenirs.
These
are the latest trends in New York, China,
Indonesia and New Zealand.
If you think you can handle it, view
www.bonsaikitten.com and
have a look at the methods being used to put
these little kittens into
bottles.

For those few fortunates who have no idea what all the fuss is about, the Bonsai Kitten site was developed in December, 2000 by a student or students at MIT, and was first hosted on the MIT servers. The site purported to be a commercial venture, that of developing "Rectilinear Kittens" by stuffing young kittens in a rectangular glass jar, sealing their rectums with Super Glue (to prevent them from defecating inside the jar), feeding them through a tube in the jar, and ultimately to attach little handles to the finished creation so the proud owners of the Bonsai Kittens could carry them around. The site is complete with a section of 'torture tools' for 'do-it-yourselfers' and invites interested parties to email for prices.
