catmag 336 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 23 December 2005CCTV CAT KILLER A MAN who repeatedly drove his car over a cat until it died has escaped being jailed. Chartered surveyor Barry Haggerty, 58, was yesterday given a six week suspended sentence plus 60 hours community service. Haggerty, from Olney, Bucks, ran over the pet in April. Revealed for the first time above are CCTV pictures showing him turning his car round to return to the scene and drive over the injured animal another 10 times. He pleaded guilty to animal cruelty when he appeared before Milton Keynes magistrates Haggerty said he was trying to put the pet out of its misery: "I feel awful. I thought I was acting in the best interests of the cat." He drove over it another 10 fucking times?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Would it have been OK if he'd got out and jumped on it? Or just twisted its neck?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth Operator 10 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Well you've got to make sure the poor thing is dead haven't you. I ran over a massive rat on Jesmond Dene Road, had to go back over it about 5 times cos the rodent was still reeling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Well it was probably an accident to start with - I've always wondered just what the best thing to is when you hit a bird or a small mammal and its still alive but badly hurt Killing it seems the best option but I odn't want Catmag & freinds accusing me of animal cruelty........... plus its a messy business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 336 Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Would it have been OK if he'd got out and jumped on it? Or just twisted its neck?? 71068[/snapback] No, neither of them would have been okay actually I just don't understand how someone could drive backwards and forwards over an animal 10 times - even if it was just to "put it out of it's misery" That was my point. If the first 'running over'was accidental then maybe he should have got out of the fucking car and maybe checked on the poor thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cat ran under my back wheels once and I immediately got out, picked it up and rushed it to the nearest vet - poor thing died in my arms on route though.

luckyluke 1 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 'Haggerty!!!' Thats my surname 71081[/snapback] You heartless bastard. I probably would have done the same - although ten times is a little excessive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 36207 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 The bloke is clearly a twat. If I knocked an animal down my first thought would be "Shit, better check if it's ok", not "Shit, better make sure I killed it". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuse the pun, but overkill. I am in agreement with putting an animal out of it's misery, and have done so on occasion, not with a car mind. For the best I believe, but not easy.

The Fish 9340 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 sorry but I'm not going to beat myself up if a cat runs out in front of my car. if it's dead, then fair enough, but if it's still suffering I'd snap it's neck. Obviously if it's only problem is broken leg or similar then I'd probably take it to a vet, but to be fair it's a cat and while many people are attached to them I wouldn't be as over the top as some of the responses on here.
