Maybe they originated in the US, but I don't recall reading about an XL Bully mauling someone in Europe, other than numerous reports from England. The fact that this type of cat is becoming popular, just because it resembles their hideous canine cousins, is pretty telling.
What is it with people wanting to buy ridiculous looking pets that have health to problems to the point of suffering? These things, pugs, bull dogs, it’s honestly so cruel…
Because the last dog I rescued cost me $7k in vet bills and needed to be put down a month and a half later due to health issues anyway. We had him just long enough to get attached. Then i spent all night with him puking up more blood then i thought he could have in him.
If I buy a puppy from a breeder I know it's genetics and can make sure it doesn't have pre existing conditions from abuse.
this is why all those monster and mutant movies are so believable. there are probably mad scientists and crazy breeders out there right now plotting to create the next weird suffering monstrosity. we can only hope they settle for just making more glow-in-the-dark plants.
They should get the breeders for animal cruelty and trading standards: “XL Bully cats” implies large, aggressive cats that could eat small children, not pitiful crippled cats doomed to a life of suffering.
It's funny how we can talk til the cows come home about regulating animal breeds and breeding out genetic defects but only for animals. Humans, being never part of the animal kingdom, are right off the table. Just the way Jesus made us
