What is wrong with people? Why would you do that to an animal? I don't get it.
Yeah, me neither.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Why would you do that to an animal? I don't get it.
Because people see their pets as an extension of themselves.
Or sometimes just as their property.
I don't endorse these notions, but I think that's the logic.

Compassionately intolerant
Oh for gods' sake. That is outrageous.
I can't even speak.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I totally view pets as property. Maybe it's the extension of self that I will never get. I just don't see a payoff--it's shanghaing them into something asinine, and unless you're weird like Steph's dog, I refuse to believe that any of them could possibly enjoy it, or even plain not care.

The tattooed cats ... that's creepy. And I imagine they had to sedate the cat to have it done. The ones of cats in S/M gear look like they've been photoshopped.

Even the temporary tattoos -- what's the point?

re: spoilers--if a book is going in a direction that I'm leery of, I'll check the end to see if it resolves in a way that doesn't make me want to throw it against a wall. I'm willing to read through badness if there's a payoff I can appreciate in the end.

Poor Chloe, ruining the curve for other dogs.
