Hi anyone who loves animals! 
I was in a gathering of people the other day, all of whom I knew well, and all are baptised Catholics. Now I am in the understanding that animals are also God’s little creatures - I love… cats, horses etc…and tend to think of them as vulnerable creatures despite some being bigger and stronger than others and sometimes if mistreated by some owners can be a little aggressive. But I think God has a reason for all of His creation to be in existence.
What I was dismayed to see, was people whom I knew well, playing videos from youtube, mostly I think from the U.K, where people put voices to the animals and have, say for example, cats playing with one another, which is fine, but then there will be an overdub of someone doing an impression of cat’s voices, often swearing, as if trying to make out that these animals are base and horrid, in an attempt to lower creatures to the individual’s own malicious ideas of themselves and the world around.
I find these videos a knock against the real beauty found in the animal kingdom and nature etc…sure, nature can be ruthless, but this is all part of the cycle of life. I tend to think that if we treat animals with love they respond as fun little friends and sometimes their reactions are humorous which reveals an essence of the gentle humour of God.
Interested to see if others find this trend of youtube videos a bit nauseating or not?
