TX Veterinarian shoots tabby cat with bow & arrow (1 Viewer)

Kristen Lindsey bragged online that she killed a "feral" cat in her neighborhood in Brenham. She posted a photo on Wednesday, which shows her holding up the dead cat by an arrow protruding from its head, according to KBTX.

The caption reads:

"My first bow kill, lol. The only good feral tomcat is one with an arrow through it's head! Vet of the year award ... Gladly accepted."

Lindsey apparently didn't know that the "feral tomcat" she bagged was actually Tiger, a 6-year-old orange Tabby who went missing earlier on Wednesday. A Facebook page titled "Justice For Tiger" was quickly set up and called for Lindsey to be charged with a crime. The page has photos of Tiger as well as a video that the kitty's owner posted to YouTube in November

Well that can't be good for business. She's not a very smart person for someone who made it through "Vet School."

 
I just can't fathom how anyone, especially a vet, would think posting that picture and caption would be a good idea. The braggadocio is just idiotic.

 
That looked like a big fat overfed pet cat. I'd expect ferrals cats to be leaner. Is that right? Should a vet have been able to visually distinguish that thing from a ferral cat before shooting?

 
Former veterinarian.
Heh. I was just guessing.

As the firestorm grew, Lindsey wrote in the comments underneath her post: "no I did not lose my job. Lol. Psshh. Like someone would get rid of me. I'm awesome!"

That prediction was wrong.

The clinic fired Lindsey, covered her name on its marquis with duct tape, and publicly distanced itself from her actions.

I don't get the outrage. She shot a cat.

Unless people are outraged at the social media attention whoring, the redneck "hunting" factor, or the "failed out of med school became a vet" aspect.
