Two brothers are facing a private prosecution in the UK brought on by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA). What’s the charge? They let their dog get fat. Real fat.
Alex Wylie, a vet from Bury St Edmunds who treated Rusty, said that the dog suffered from painful joints and breathing problems. “He did literally look like a walrus. There were times when he couldn’t get up.”
This being a nation of animal-lovers, the story is getting quite a bit of coverage.
I was looking at this picture of my cat on my Flickr account when a colleague glanced over my shoulder and said quite causually – “How many years do you think those brothers are going to get?”
She’s not fat – she’s just extra fluffy.
