Urgh that is so rude!
I actually made a total scene today... not over Poppy but over a cat that lives in my BFs street.
This cat is lovely and so tame, it sits and waits on the wall for my BF and will follow anyone for a stroke, its such a lovable and trusting little thing.
Anyway I was picking my BF up after I had finished work tonight and I was sitting in my car waiting for him and the cat was sitting on the wall.
A group of 3 children who looked around 10 years old walked past, one girl picked the cat up and I could see it was screaming to be down because she was swinging it about. The cat must have scratched her because she dropped it.
The cat ran and sat on the front door step to the house where it lives and to my horror this evil little kid ran over and started kicking it and chasing it.
I jumped out of the car and went mad LOL I was shouting and screaming at these kids, probably going a bit over the top as they were children but I really couldnt believe what I had just seen.
What made it worse is that I work for the ambulance service and my uniform looks very much like a police uniform so they looked like they had seen a ghost, they must have thought I was a policewomen.
I bet they went home and moaned to there mothers, the police will probably get a complaint that one of their officers verbally abused their children hahahah!
God I was so angry, but atleast they left the cat alone... little brats.

Some children really have no respect for animals.. I blame the parents.
