Is this anyone's idea of a joke?

Firefighter Takes Cat Home To Daughter

MISSOULA, Montana -- There has been a happy ending on what started as a case of animal cruelty.

Passers-by spotted the calico house cat Tuesday morning while crossing a footbridge by Montana?s icy Clark Fork River. They called for help, and Missoula firefighters responded. Firefighters lowered a boat onto the ice, and retrieved the soaking-wet cat.

Someone had put the animal in a cage, along with a rock weighing about 16 pounds, and tossed it over the bridge. But instead of landing in the water, the caged cat landed on the ice and bounced several times, coming to a stop in an icy puddle of slush.

It's unclear how long the cat had been there.

Despite its ordeal, one of the cat's rescuers said she was really friendly, and dined on leftover Christmas turkey at the firehouse.

One of the firefighters then took the vet-checked cat home to his daughter. They named their new pet "Lucky."

I nearly vomited after reading that. How awful! I am really glad that the cat has a good home now.

I can't stand reading something like that. Especially because I'm such a animal lover, why would someone do that to any animal?? If you don't want the damn cat there are better alternatives than throwing it over a bridge! Give it to a shelter or someone who would want it.

I think who ever did that should be thrown in a cage and tossed out into the river just to see how he likes it!! Some people are sooo rediculous. Why not just give the cat away to someone who will obviously love it more than you??

All my family lives in Missoula, maybe I should make it a man hunt....Im sure they would love to catch an idiot like that. Unless it was my brother......(na I think he's still in jail)

Oh my god, what the hell is wrong with some people. Whoever did that deserves to be beaten many times. That's so horrible, I almost feel like crying. I'm just so glad he's okay.

"dined on leftover Christmas turkey"

Well at least we find a use for the leftover turkey. It doesn't matter how much of it you eat, there's always twice as much left.
