What does that idiot with the broom think heā€™s going to accomplish? Throw a bowl or pan over it. Heā€™s in the kitchen for godā€™s sake. Iā€™m pretty sure that cat is scared because he almost got nailed by the broom early in the video.

Yeahā€¦ a bowl or pan. Thatā€™s totally what I was thinking. Definitely wasnā€™t thinking he should stomp on it when it runs outā€¦

Certainly not a job for the faint of heart, but a job that needs done never the less. We catch them on glue traps all the time when the crops get cut around here, I usually put them in a bag and either drop a cinder block on them or slam the bag into ground as hard as I can. It feels terrible to do it, but itā€™s the fastest way to end them without making them suffer greatly like with a poison or a snap track only getting their legs. I try to make it quick for them but they need dealt with because they can breed really quick spreading disease and are very destructive.

Youā€™re right, I didnā€™t live on a farm, but I know that rats and mice are vermin, itā€™s common knowledge, as for killing insects, they are a different kind of animal, they think differently to other creatures, they donā€™t experience the world in the same way, and are based on instinct. As for your last point, do you hear yourself? ā€œI guess itā€™s crazy to burn something alive for trying to find warmthā€ fucking yes????

u/Dorkmaster79 Jan 26 '25

Iā€™ve never lived on a farm either but you seem to be judging anyway. If I had a bunch of large hay bails infested with rats I might resort to the same solution to get rid of them. Do you have an alternative suggestion?

u/radsnakesnake Jan 26 '25

Well if youā€™re gonna burn it, and ruin the bail, then just get rid of it instead

And put it where?

u/Green-Anarchist-69 Jan 26 '25

Why are insects more important than mice or rats? Because of intellect? If so, then all the animals are inferior to us so by that logic we absolutely can do whatever we want with any animal whatsover due to huge gap between us. Killing doesn't discriminate, it just happens due to circumstances, animal is on animals territory, it dies, one animal is hungry and the other is weaker? The second gets eaten. Killing is in nature of everything that lives, including us. My father taught me how to gut a fish, and make fillets. My grandma taught me how to butcher a chicken. I don't torture animals due to empathy, but eat them as they would have eaten me. Hunger is hell of a drug.

Yes, but thereā€™s a difference between killing something for food to eat, and beating it to death because you donā€™t like it existing, i agree, killing is nature, but in cases like this, un-necessary.

Stomp a gerbil, bribe a rat.

My aunt once fought a snake with a banana leaf. She got a shovel, a machete, a rake and other tools mear her. Fortunately, it left her alone and slithered away.

My ex once killed a mouse with a broom while the cat just watched. And I caught the same cat in a bathroom just torturing a mouse, but not killing it. When I turned the light on, the mouse bolted and the cat looked at me like ā€œthanks a lot. Now what do I play with?ā€ šŸ˜‚

I saw my mom beat a mouse to death with a broom in the bathtub as a kid. I vividly remember that and will never forget the situation. Fucker made the wrong move cornering himself. I refused to use the shower for a good 2 days cuz its guts spilled out from the beating (that's part of what makes the memory so vivid). That said, the guy can accomplish a lot with a broom.

Also, can anyone state/share the original link? I want to share this with my mom. She will definitely get a kick out of it.

u/Key-Trifle-552 Jan 23 '25

No. The cat is scared of the rat not the broom

u/LaughSpare5811 Jan 23 '25

Maybe scared of the furious and frantic actions of his owner

u/Key-Trifle-552 Jan 24 '25

ā€¦of the owner doing what itā€™s supposed to do, attack the rat?

3

u/LaughSpare5811 Jan 24 '25

I donā€™t believe the cat wanted to get hit with the broom and probably was out of ordinary behavior from the owner and the cat was scared. Animals definitely pick up on that

I assumed to beat it to death but he couldnā€™t even do that
