cats

Speciesism

For me it is fine, that bastard will think twice next time.

Throwing water at each other, the way people used to throw eggs...

If someone intentionally caused harm to any of my cats, I live near a large national forest, and once you get a few hundred yards off a trail, no one is going to find a body.

Idk,

Shouting “Hey, don’t do that” loud and clear may be more effective.

• kid may have thought they where alone and will get jumped from getting caught.

• May alert the parents their kid is up to mischief.

• Doesn’t potentially start an escalation war with neighbors

• Doesn’t carry the small risk of the child falling or otherwise getting hurt with you as an easy blame.

Think of it like this: Does the kid now understand the “evil” of their actions to try be better next time. Or will they feel vindicated by their parents support against your “evil”
