Im actually about to beat the shit out of my brother so we have a cat named Salem and hes pretty energetic and always getting into stuff so usually he gets a spritz with a spay bottle when he's into something he's not supposed to be into but this time he was up on a counter and eating the meat my mom had set out for dinner. Now i know that that's bad but earlier that day she gave him a slice of ham, which was the meat she had sitting out, so then he got sprayed with the spray bottle and taken out of the kitchen. And then my dumbass brother comes out and starts running and stomping at the cat before grabbing him by the scruff and throwing him into the laundry room for "punishment" when it was literally already handled. I hate when people use methods like that to get a cat or dog or really any animal to listen to them(and I know the spray bottle isn't exactly a good method for cats either but its the only way he listens, we've tried everything) but hitting animals is a huge no for me and so is scaring the piss out of them, so i'm literally about to beat his ass😔
