Mike... don't flatter yourself into thinking it's a vendetta. You have shown yourself for what you are and have no one else to blame but yourself.
However, first scenario, my son, and depending on the size of the other child and prevailing conditions I would make an an attempt for the second.
Second scenario would be whatever child enabled me to make a second run at the other. Colour shouldn't come into it, and as you might remember, my wife is not White, nor English.
Have I been in this position myself? No, thankfully. The point being, I wouldn't save a cat over a human, especially a human that most likely couldn't be held responsible for the predicament it was in. That to me and im sure Norcon and his friends, evil, horrid and cowardly.
Don't kid yourself! and your reply is tactical, and you know why because you are under probe here, to reveal your true colours.
Now let me give you a real answer, if there was a cat and a child I had to save, I will save only that whom I love the most, if the child is mine and the cat is yours, I will save my child first, your cat will be least important to me.
So in another scenario, its your child and my cat, whom I love above my own self, I will naturally and instinctively save my cat first, that is because I love my cat, cat is just an animal I know, so that is immaterial, it could be a hedgehog for that matter, but if I am his guardian, it is my duty to save what is under my guardianship.
The answer I gave earlier in my last thread or earlier on here is an ideal unbiased, answer, which means without regards to who is my son or whose cat it is, the answer was first come first serve, in other words whichever one I can reach first or grab first I will pull it out and leave at the safe place and come back for the other.
It is time you stop bringing this scenario into every post I am making,
and if this does not satisfy you, so let me show you my true colours here:
A young married couple came to visit a friend of theirs, who lives in a nearby house, ( I know this guy as he adopted an abandoned cat I rescued a while ago, and this guy wanted to adopt what would have been my 11th cat, a beautiful white gorgeous cat with black patch on her head and blue eyes! I love this cat even more than I love all my 10 cats!
Since I have 10 cats of my own, I happily let him have this rescued cat, but on a condition that he looked after it well, as long as I could call on him from time to time to ensure the cat is not being neglected. He agreed that I could pop in whenever I want to.
So one day I popped in, they were all in the back garden having drinks and smoke, the visiting young couple relative of his, had a newly born baby who was asleep in a cot, left inside the house on a sofa on which this rescued my most favourite cat was also asleep peacefully!
As I saw the situation, and immediately thought what if the cat had attacked the newly born baby? so I became furious highly alarmed for the sake of this baby, who was not even mine, and I loved this cat,
So I immediately had go at all 3 of them, for being so negligent and careless, and told them what if my cat I had given him attacked this 6 week old boy!
immediately the mother realised what she had done, and went straight back in and apologised and I reminded her that no matter what, animals are animals, though I love them as my own, you still cannot trust them 100% especially when tiny babies are around even cats can sometimes go potty and attack tiny babies, this is animal instinct sadly.
I ticked them off, and said at least one of them should have stayed behind with the baby sleeping in the cot, in the presence of a cat.
So now Danny boy how do you feel? I hope you will stop your dirty vendetta against me attacking every post I make, everyone knows you are doing his, I have had some supporting personal message and asking me to ignore you as you are acing like a pratt!
