Oh good grief. You need to tell more of the story, as there is so much more to tell. About how you were the only one left in the hunt after the pemmican and kerosene ran out. The decision to press on after your fairweather comrades turned tail. The three-day, two-night stalk under dark sleet-storm skies before you were finally in position for the kill. The sight of the proud cunning beast from your ambush as your finger crept toward the guttering slow-match lockwork. The monster’s valiant doomed screams of defiance after taking your ball. Really, you dishonor the tale with your terse account. The spirit of the murdered whale that imbues your drinking-tooth would facepalm, if sperm whales had faces or palms.

Good on you, really.
Hopefully it was quick and clean.

I think if you live outside city limits, it's truly the most gentle way to do it. A 12ga where the spine meets the skull.

No blood, twitching is over in literally two seconds.
No car ride, no restraint or needles.

The 12ga seems a bit much

I shot him in the back of the head with my Colt "Frontier Scout" .22mag revolver I've had since 1974

Man, I would literally kick you in the ribs for saying something like that.

People like you are why we have Brady's law.

I got my laws mixed up, I thought Brady was tied to a post and beaten to death.

Nothing badass about putting your pet down humanely. It's just better than a car ride and a needle for a sick pet.

Mine were done by the vet in my home
I think that is a bit more humane and doesn't scar anyone

But then again my pets have life long relationship with the vet

You aren't special just jaded

So.
Your response to words on the Internet is to express a desire to inflict physical violence.

If you seriously believe that my bit of turgid prose means I’m saying Sir Napsalot did, would or should be cruel to an animal, you not I have a problem.

Well yes I took it as a snarky insult to him on a very touchy subject; putting down your pet.

Napsalot kinda implied that they never want to kill an animal again.

There might be an instance where you don't want to wait for a vet either.

I was upset because it really came out wrong the way I read it.
It's certainly not about cool guns and fun when shooting your pet.
Even asking someone to elaborate on how they did it is just bringing up bad memories.

I respect that. Know that I am not advocating cruelty.

I do admit to twisting his tail though.

A rat has been raiding my wife's bird feeder so I've had a pellet gun ready by the door but every time I've approached the little fucker he's gotten wind of me before I can get a bead on him

I realized that he's seeing my shadow on the gate before I get there because of the northern position of the sun, so I'm going to try sneaking up on him from the backyard- I also have to be careful because of the neighbors, although the smell of their dryer sheets is more bothersome than the rat
