Rather than destroy caught rats by approved pest control methods, a manager advised “stomping on them or throwing them against walls”, the union’s complaint said.
Hmm something tells me maybe the manger needs therapy and not be in charge of children
The biggest issue is “childrens prison”.
What a headline.
This is like a Far Side cartoon: “how many times do I have to tell you lunkheads? These are the therapy ferrets, those are the pest-control ferrets, don’t mix them up”
I feel like killing a rat is probably therapeutic for a therapy ferret. I mean, that’s kind of what ferrets are into. Probably more than being handled by the planet’s superpredator, at any rate.
I know this is probably considered cruelty to animals, but a part of me thinks, “wouldn’t the ferrets fucking love this?”
Just because they love doing the job (and they do) doesn’t mean they should be doing it for free, so sayeth the Union for Employed Weasels.
Possibly more than being a therapy pet.
According to a union complaint seen by the Guardian, the decision resulted in a boy who looks after ferrets witnessing an “inappropriate and potentially distressing” savaging of a screaming rat.
wow how distressing, break out the cotton wool
