So was it the child or not? I know you probibly cant say.  :shy:

I hope these kittys pull through, Rip their little litter mates. Such a bad start, I hope the other 3 will find out the world is not such a bad place.

How old were/ are the kittens and where is mum?

not wanting to sound rude or stupid, but any money donated would go.... straight to the vets?
i hope so, the thought of the (previous) 'owners' even touching a penny disgusts me....... as i'm sure it does others and wont be happening.
hope that came across right.....  :)

Kittens in a blender.

There is a collection going for these 3 surviving kittens on the hovel.

I dont think millys mum is in a position to say too much due to legal implications. (please update/correct me if im wrong and / or delete that line if i shouldnt have even said that)

The update i have had is that 6 kittens had been involved and 3 are dead.  The 3 survivors apparently have multiple wounds with lots of stitches and are in body stockings.

As pointed out on the hovel even a 50p dontation would be gratefully recieved.  For those who arent members of the hovel im not too sure how payment etc will work but i will try and find out if something could be done.

Fingers crossed these 3 babies survive and get over the trauma.

I must admit I am shocked to read some of the replies written by ADULTS concerning the actions of a 3yr old child!  Perhaps the parent of the child is to blame here, not a baby!

i dont think a child of 3 would do that in the first place ,
if the child was to be playing with a blender then it would copy wat it sees mummy doing with the blender and put food in it and mess about with it ,
unless the child was like problem child
it would not put kittens in a blender COME ON !!!! Children arent thick they r clever and pick up things and learn things easily ,

i dread to think where the lazy  :censored: of a mother was at the time
the kid musta been unsupervised for ages to do that !

thankyou tracey for that educated professional opinion. You hit the nail on the head with everything you said.

Forever a child who is little more than a toddler is not capable of being truly evil that comes as they get older if ever & is usually the result of an EVIL adults wrong doing in some shape or form.

You honestly think this word can be used to describe a child of three?

Did you know that humans are only born with a certain amount of basic emotions and develop a heck of a lot more as they get older.

I knew I shouldn't have read this thread, it's highly disturbing.

What a sad story.

I worked as a nursery nurse for several years with that age group. That child, if it was that child, wouldnt have known what it was doing. It may have been carrying around the kittens and played prtend making tea or something....unless that child had seen it done before and was not shown it was wrong....the child wouldnt have known what it was doing was going to harm the kittens...till after and the kid saw the dead kittens.

The person to blame here is the person who was supervising the child or shouldve been...and the person who left the processor out. I wouldnt be surprised if older children were involved here.

Poor babies, i do hope the survivors recover qiuckly, and can go to a happy loving home.

Obviously not knowing the facts I still think this is very strange!! My feelings on the matter is that there have been older children involved in this and the 3 year old has been blamed. How could a child of that age get a processor out of a cupboard, plug it in, get however many kittens (poor, poor wee things) into the blender, put on a lid and switch it on! Simply not possible IMO!! I would lay money on there being kids of at least 10 yrs old involved in this! Evil little sods! >:(

I dont think all processors have a safety catch by the way - our smoothie maker doesnt have one and that is large with sharp blades. Im sure my mums processor doesnt have one.

As kids, about the worst thing we did to cats was try to put dolls hats on them and push them around in a pram

You should have asked your mum for a dolly  :evillaugh:

I know though it wouldnt have crossed my mind to deliberately be cruel to an animal.

 My kids are the same but my nephew was forever lifting his feet and repeatedly kicking mils dogs (and my son) or striking with the nearest object to hand.  He never really got smacked bottom (cept from when he accidentally wet himself under the age of 18 mnths !!!) I do think he is better now, he will start school after summer.  But i have to say he was one of the most nasty little sods i have met at such a young age. but again i blame the parenting..he was shoved into nursery at 2 months old,..they had to leave early in morning so nursery even gave him BREAKFAST  and sometimes supper aswell !!  and in my mind he got disiplined for wrong reasons..one day my dd was 8 weeks old, he threw repeatedly wooden blocks, 2 of which struck her on the head..his mum did nothing more that merely exclaim his name but the minute he stepped foot on the hearth of fire which was never ever used he got smacked fingers coz he might have scratched the hearth tiles  :Crazy:

I do remember hearing stories from my great uncle who is now around 60 saying as lads many "boys" used to stick straws up frogs bums and inflate them, i think there was some truth in it but how much i dont know.

What a horrible story :(  Poor kittens.

Like everyone else I'm a bit puzzled how a child that age would be able to get a blender/processor out of a cupboard, plug it in and fit on the lid with safety catch at all, let alone without being observed.  And they must have been very small kittens.  Hmm... not pleasant.  I hope the injured kittens will be ok.

Maybe the children need to be removed from the family while there is still time. As kids, about the worst thing we did to cats was try to put dolls hats on them and push them around in a pram.

I hate to think what the chav kids of this generation are going to grow into. I am not sure I want to be around to see what happens!!

As for the mother - who knows...

I think that no matter what our personal feelings, we all need to hold off making any extreme comments until we know more. MM is at this point the only one who has a clearer picture of the story but cannot tell us more at this time.

Such a disturbing picture this whole thing as it stands paints.

Kids will be kids and at that age they dont know what's wrong or right, well obviously there was no one there to teach them. Very wrong to say the kid should be killed because its their parents fault, but saying it about the mother is a different matter. Kids only get away with what they are allowed to!

There's an old proverb that goes something like this "Show me the child of five, and I'll show you the man." (I think its Chinese.) Basically, all your learning years are from birth to five, so if you've got to five and still have no recognition of what's cruel, you haven't been taught properly.

I studied Child Development at school and it was very interesting. (Not interesting enough to make me have kids though, apparantly!)

example of a 2 3/4 year old...only yesterday i was boiling a pan of water for rice ..stepped into livingroom to pass a drink to my son and look round to see my daughter putting a metal spoon into said pan, she could only just reach and literallly a second away from boiling water all over her...they gradually develop a knowledge of right from wrong and know whats dangerous as they get older and are pretty astute normally by school age time.

To be fair thats a bit extreme mark. if the child was just newly 3 they do not have a proper perception of right and wrong, this is what they learn in the period.  a child around 4 would have a better perception of it but the main issue is where was the adults and i hope social services are involved in this aswell because if you ask me the child is / was just as much at risk as the animals.

Children or not - execute the b******s !

Ummmm.....I'm not saying they should get away with it, but if the information's correct this is a three year old. Plenty of time to be taught out of (extremely) cruel behaviour. This is not a case of a teenager who has developed its own standards and beliefs, but a child that is led by example.

im almost not wanting the details if that makes sense.

i agree karenjet my own 6 1/2 year old would struggle aswell, hels bells i always have to try and slide it into safety lock position a few times before it clicks in properly..processors dont work either unless you have the lid properly on.

A 3 year old child shouldn't have been left unattended for the time it would've taken to get a food processor out of a cupboard, plug it in, etc etc.
I agree with Lynn, too. I have two two and a half year olds and they would not have a clue how to put on the safety lid, I doubt even my 6 year old could do it.

something abit suss there !!

 I agree Lynn it does sound a bit strange to me .... and I hope it's not true! ... Will keep you posted.
