Okay, so the semester's finally over, whew, but my one class was crazy!
One day last week she came in and said her cat had kittens. Apparently the mom cat was still a kitten herself. One of them had deformities in its back legs, so of course she decided that it shouldn't live... so she had her husband kill it. And described it in full detail. Like, that she heard it scream. (Instead of, oh, I dunno, taking it to the vet?) Then the next time she comes into class her other cat (also a kitten itself) has babies. And she didn't know it was pregnant????? So now she has like thirteen cats.
Yes, she let them outside on purpose because "she didn't know they could get pregnant that early" which is an excuse for a new cat owner, or someone who doesn't know better, but I know how many other cats she has
And then she says, only half-kidding if that much, "Anyone who takes a kitten gets an A"
Are you serious?????????????
Would you guys have walked out of class? I almost did. The professor in question has been reported to the chair for some other highly inappropriate things / comments she made in class, and he knows part of the story, but catcare isn't really part of her job, so he can't do much about this.
The terrible part is that some people thought it was funny?!?!??
