We have received complaint about man feeding kittens to snake, says Vet Dept


PETALING JAYA: A complaint has been received about a Twitter user who fed a kitten to a python, says the Veterinary Services Department.

Department deputy director Dr Akma Ngah Hamid has said that her department received the complaint and immediately forwarded it to the Animal Welfare section.

"We received the complaint in our email and forwarded it straight to animal welfare. For any further reports, feel free to send them to MyAnimalWelfare's online system," she said.

Twitter user @vvnloll shared screenshots taken from a video posted to the social media site and said that he is shocked the man could get these kittens and rabbits free of charge and feed them to his snake.

"My friend and I have no problem finding these kittens and rabbits for our snake," said the person who posted the original video, adding that he is thrilled to see his snake eating the cats.

This led to anger on social media, as Twitter users appalled by his behaviour called for the authorities to take strict action.

"I'm not sure how animal laws are over here but if I'm not mistaken you'd need a license to raise a pet snake. Maybe netizens can lodge a police report with help from animal rights organisations," said Twitter user@alfiezik.

Similarly, @nadiyahsusinoo said; "Has he no heart to hear the cries of these kittens and rabbits as they're eaten alive" while @hrashidah3 says a person can be fined RM50,000, imprisoned for a year or both if found guilty of animal cruelty.

Normally snakes eat rats, not kittens.

That's why I post this news article to validate.

very hard to talk about this also..i mean we eat meat like fish and chicken no?

so why is kitten puppy any worse?

baby chicks get minced into nuggets too....so i want to say morally wrong also susah liao.

My emotions do not support this, but my logical side sees no wrong

the answer is no, not normal

rats hard to catch
kittens people leave by roadside all the time.

python programming?

baby chicks (male) are mostly ground up alive and turn into nuggets

Thats just human propaganda to protek their favorite pet .

Snakes, by nature, hunt and eat small rodents like rats.

Force feeding them with kittens is not something natural.

i see no problem .
especially those cats from no where that craw thu ur car and shit at your house.

Rats live matter too.

True. We complain about strays all the time no?

Your dilemma is easily solved by becoming vegetarian, in this way your moral and logic is in harmonious synchronization.
