The world loves cats. The internet loves cats.

Cats have an undefinable quality that makes them irresistible to people. Lift your hand if you´ve never watched a cat video!

Cats are, in fact, a marketer´s dream. Aware of their viral potential, marketers all over the world rely on the cheeky felines to sell their products.

Knowing this you couldn´t think of a crazier marketing strategy for a company than getting rid of a harmless bunch of kitties of a feral colony, have their care-giver arrested, and then go on to their Facebook Page to brag about it.

And that´s exactly what Monroe Therapeutic Massage in Savannah, Georgia did.

An establishment supposedly in tune with the earth, the world´s energies, and all those things that make people feel happy and energized… like cats!

I had never heard of Monroe Therapeutic Massage until someone shared their post on Facebook.

 

The shocking post was followed by this other one..

 

In Savannah, an increasingly hostile city towards feral cats, having feral cats trapped by anyone other than an independent cat rescue group is a death sentence. 

And then another one in which they posted a police report after reporting the poor lady that used to take care of the cats. 

The company may have thought Facebook users and by extension the world at large would be impressed by their action and applaud the cats’ deaths. Monroe Therapeutic Massage must have thought that by getting rid of the innocent cats, had their elderly caretaker arrested, and brag about it that people would be flocking through their doors…

And indeed the internet caught fire and this is precisely what happened… 

Like all internet protests there are always a few idiots (not pictured here) that crash in but have nothing to do with the cause.  They’re just there to to troll and hurt — karma will get them, too.  For the rest of us,  we think of those innocent cats that are gone because a business couldn’t appreciate their existence.

UPDATE: Those people claimed repeatedly that the cats were collected by the Humane Society and rehomed.  That has proven to be a lie… The Humane Society has just issued the following statement.

They stood no chance… 

Those cats had names. They were someone. 

This is Karma. Feline Karma. 

Are you a cat person? Are you as upset as we are about these cats’ death?

And a last word from Benjamin Monroe, proud owner of Monroe Therapeutic Massage..

    This is outrageous. What kind of people are those?
    I´m sharing, I will make sure everyone on my list knows what those people did!

  2. Chelleigh says:

    Perhaps if they put this much effort into spaying and neutering events, or rehab events for the cats we could consider them f*&%ing HUMAN! What idiots!

    WHERE CAN I SEND MONEY TO HELP THE CAT LADY?

    1. Viktor Larkhill says:

      Chelleigh… I don´t know but I will find out. I will put you in touch.

  3. Jo Ann Simko says:

    Truly horrible people. I hope their business goes to hell in a hurry.

  4. These people are wicked monsters. Vile in the extreme. I hope their trashy business goes bust very quickly and they lose every last penny they have. I wish for them to be overrun with rats and mice which no doubt these poor cats kept down. A curse on those who murdered these cats and persecuted the kindly lady who tried so hard to help them. So sad 🙁

  5. Their newest post, how arrogant – We at MTM would like to thank the many misinformed animal lovers for keeping MTM trending. We are doing 95% better than most businesses on facebook. We would also like to thank the many people who actually try to find out what happen and understand. Common sense is not common at all. We’d like to inform everyone that we are moving forward to correct this injustice done by these people but we wish them great mercy from the heavenly father. As always we thank you for continuing to choose MTM where it’s more than massage, it’s care!

  6. I wrote on their FB page that I would never seek massage / healing from an organization that kills helpless animals. 🙂

  7. I am going to send this post to Alley Cat Allies who fight people like this with lawyers who know the law.

    Hi, I urge everyone who has seen this post to speak to MTM directly as they are accepting calls and questions about the incident. Also, has anyone called animal control? If these cats are in fact deceased, it was not at the hands of MTM. Let it give blame where blame is due.

    1. Ms.Vaughn, everyone knows what Animal Control does. They exterminate most with only a small percentage being re-homed. To say that that is where blame falls is to say that when someone calls an exterminator to rid themselves of pests that it was the exterminator’s fault. Perhaps it was just ignorance of Animal Control’s role — many people think they are there to actually “shelter” animals and keep them until they are happy in a home, but that’s a fantasy. Or, perhaps it was denial. In either case, blame still falls with the business. If they would realize the way forward is to recognize that and work with animal rights groups for a better solution — one which doesn’t call for the needless killing of these cats — things would immediately improve for everyone.

    They are therapeutic to humans but lethal to felines. Hmm? Not like any healers I know! Disgusting!!!

  10. My friend Sara, the cat lady, was distraught over this situation for quite a while …. She is a nurse. A mutual friend, a doctor, contacted me to tell me of Sara’s plight and the rest is history. The above posts are pretty much the way it all went down minus the Canada connection, where some people up in Canada took the side of the Monroe idiots …. I do not know why this is in my message box, referred to me by another friend …. I think the business took a big big hit but I am not following this situation anymore … Sara is staying busy with work and I am guessing she is still feeding cats around the savannah area … she did contact me a couple weeks ago to donate some money to my 501 c 3 Animals Anonymous Relief fund, she is that kind of person … she was grateful for the interest everyone had in those animals. I do not know what this is but I think as Viktor has posted, Karma is a cat …. at any rate …. they are gone and Sara is okay. If there is anymore to be done please contact me …. a lawsuit that I was threatened with never did materialize …. I sure wish these people weren’t so ignorant … they simply do not know what they do not know … and they got spanked pretty good for it . Ciao
