Status: Real (unfortunately)
A series of pictures showing a woman crushing a kitten to death with her stiletto heels is causing an uproar over in China. The pictures first appeared on the internet and have recently been published by some Chinese newspapers. The woman in the photos has been dubbed the Kitten Killer of Hangzhou, because the background scene has been identified as Hangzhou. I've been able to locate four of the pictures in the series, but I think there are a few more (far more graphic) ones. Here are the ones I found (I don't have larger versions):
The big question is: Who is this woman? One theory is that the images come from a Japanese shoe advertisement. Another theory identifies the kitten killer as a "37-year-old woman from Hubei province with the internet identity 'Gainmas.'"
The London Telegraph elaborates:
She had registered a website in Hangzhou and - the ultimate evidence - had bought a pair of stilettoes on eBay last year. She was also registered with QQ, a popular Chinese message service, where she wrote of herself: "I furiously crush everything to do with you and me." Before her QQ address went dead, its owner had several conversations. In one, she is coy, saying "So what?" when asked if the pictures are of her, and then, when asked again, replying: "In theory." When confronted by a reporter, she became defensive, saying: "Suddenly hundreds of people are on my QQ and cursing me. What's the problem if I crush cats? It's a type of experience. You wouldn't understand."
The Telegraph goes on to note:
No one seems to have suggested the serious possibility that the photographs could be a hoax - created by picture-altering computer software. But in the face of tight control of self-expression, young Chinese are seeking wildly different forms of sensation or satire on the state of society.
Without having seen all the pictures (and better quality ones), it's hard to judge whether or not they're real. But it certainly seems like this has already become the Chinese version of
Bonsai Kitten (with the added twist that it may be real... in which case it's definitely disgusting).
Update: A "Crush" video is circulating around (you can find links to it in the comments, if you're interested) that makes it pretty clear the woman really did step on a kitten. Also, an article in the
Shanghai Daily reports that the lady, and the guy who produced the video, have been identified. The producer, who is a camera operator at a TV station, has apologized. However, the woman, who works as a nurse at a hospital, has disappeared, leading to concerns that kitten commandoes may have abducted her (or something along those lines).
Comments
we've established that this is real many a time and what form of fetish this is, in fact even had a bonified crusher right here, in this thread... if you bothered to read any of it."
Excuse me but I didn't read the entire thread and there was tons of people denying it.
"that kitten isnt realy fealing much... it has been drugged and they are quite a pain in the arse in china. just like dogs... why else would they eat them?"
You're quite dense, aren't you? Where are you getting that the animal is drugged? That's beside the point, anyway. Whether or not the animal could feel it or not, this is still the torturing and suffering of a defenseless living being. If this doesn't bother you, then there's something wrong with you.
Quite frankly, if this woman was brutally murdered, I wouldn't shed a tear. She knows what's right and what's wrong and she crossed that line. She's not innocent and there is no defending her.
Being raped is nothing compared to what she did to that cat. It's nothing compared to having your head stomped on until your eye pops out and your brains leak out. Get the picture?!
And there's no excusing all the other forms of animal rights abuses that happen around the world, either. Don't think I turn a blind eye to it.
Oh and that goes almost equally for all the twisted rationale-spouters in these threads. Absolutely repugnant pieces of garbage.

It's not funny and anyone who can laugh about it is as sick as one who can get off to it.
Why not care about all living things and not just the ones that are cute?
I personally don't care about animals or people I don't know.
Please help stop this,

wut is wrong with u?
Just because people eat pigs or cows doesn't make it okay to crush an animal to death for entertainment / sexual purposes (or for any reason, actually).
Just because some animal experiments and scientfic and medical research performed on animals is inhumane and wrong does not mean it's okay for people to crush an animal to death.
The people who do this "crushing" should have hot irons inserted in to their rectums and then be shot to death.
To so completely lack empathy for a life, be it human or animal, makes that person undeserving of life.
They are completely warped and depraved and should not share the planet with the rest of us.

"Well, we literally slaughter pigs...what's the difference between a pig and a cat? What if we always ate cats, not pigs and this was a pig being crushed?"
--------------------------
Then it would *still* be wrong and disgusting, idiot.
Animals killed for human consumption should be treated humanely. Their deaths should be as fast and painless as possible.
The fact that some slaughter houses are insensitive ass wipes and allow the animals to feel some pain before / during death does *not make it okay for people to crush animals to death.*
*Both* actions are wrong.
'The people who do this "crushing" [who make the videos or tapes of it] should have hot irons inserted in to their rectums and then be shot to death. '
I'd also like to add, and I'm completely serious, that the people *who WATCH the crush videos and get off on it, who watch for enjoyment* should *also* have hot irons placed in their rectums and be shot to death.
"The people who do this "crushing" should have hot irons inserted in to their rectums and then be shot to death.
"To so completely lack empathy for a life, be it human or animal, makes that person undeserving of life."
It's telling that you find no contradiction in your own statements. Perhaps you are right.
Does anyone actually have a copy of the video? I've never heard of this incident before, but I'm already sickened by the photos.
Please get in touch with me or post a current link to the video. I can be reached at: ******@graffiti.net
Every day I thank God he gave some of us the intelligence to invent the most wonderful thing known to the modern world....The Internet.
Now these scumbags,instead of doing these things in the privacy of their own homes,where nobody would ever find out,are doing it for all the world to see.
That will be their downfall because as many as there are sick sexually depraved scum like that,there will always be millions more people willing and able to hunt them down and take them out in the same way.
They will never be safe again....and that makes me really ecstatically happy.
Have a sad life sick scum....well....what's left of it anyway...lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
.
The truth hurt harry ??
Are you worried harry??
By the sound of you....you should be!!!
Have a sad life you and your kind!!!
lol lol lol lol lol lol
I got more important things to do, like pick up the pieces of animals lives after sick scum have had their way with them than waste my time with scum like you.

Before her QQ address went dead, its owner had several conversations. In one, she is coy, saying "So what?" when asked if the pictures are of her, and then, when asked again, replying: "In theory."

She publicaly excused herself after she said this... this is plain wrong. And we all feel very powerless, i know i the fuck am.
