The thought that people can throw a small cat at a bus is truly sickening ('Thugs throw live cat at bus', December 13).
Being hung, drawn and quartered is not enough punishment for people who can do that, no matter how deprived their backgrounds may be. These youths need to be hunted down and punished. Though the cat was reported to have run off apparently uninjured, that is by no means a reliable indicator of the cat's state of health. A cat can run off in a state of shock, only to die later from internal injuries.
