Well if she can do this to someones pet and be very proud of herself and takes pictures of herself with her kill and place it on FB I'm betting this is not the first time shes does something like this, so I call it torture to pets that have been shot in the head with a arrow. May not be torture to some but to me yes... |

Not related. I don't know where people are getting that. Ps. I am not in any way defending her. I just don't think the clinic should be punished because she is an idiot troll. |

Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | Nevertooold - 2015-04-18 12:49 PM I would not take this out on the vet clinic. They fired her very quickly. I don't feel they should be punished by the actions of an employee even though she was related by marriage. I feel sorry for the clinic and the owner of the clinic.
Your right  , it just makes me sick to think that a Vet could do something like this, shes suppose to help these pets not kill them  |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Seriously, there are psychotic people who have a history of killing and torturing animals, as an early sign of their psychosis. Normal people don't do this....and then gloat about it and display it the way she did. People who kill for no good reason and are remorseless are probably psychotic and stand a good chance of going on to do much worse things. If you want to read about this kind of psychopathology taken to the extreme, read about serial killers and psychopaths like "the iceman", Richard Kuklinski. He boasted about the pleasure he derived from torturing and killing cats.....dogs too. Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer did the same things. It's quite possible we will hear about her again. |

Location: Lost in the corn of Iowa. | rodeomom3 - 2015-04-17 1:45 PM I find it crazy that it happened here in my area of Texas and those of you posting are from all over the country- the power of social media. It blows my mind that she posted that picture, stupid and immature, no telling how long this will follow her and what her job prospects are now. I bet any clinic who hires her will be bombarded with calls and messages.
^^THIS!! Where the stupidity lies is how she didn't think that her actions could be seen as a fowl representation of her profession and the place that she works. I have not seen the picture, but it's becoming a less common known fact that if you are a professional and regardless if you are clocked in on the job or not, you are still representing and endorsing the reputation that company wants to uphold. That's why businesses have policies that support corrective actions against this, bad mouthing the company or even acting innappropriately in public. When there are usually at least 5 able bodied people willing to do your job, grow up and always act like a professional on or off the job because you never know when it will get back to your emloyer. I am truly sorry for the cat and the owners. |

Location: relocated to Texas | Itsme - 2015-04-18 12:37 PM Its a POS cat, get over it people. Just another faux outrage.
Are you for real? Are you so insensitive as to not see the wrong in what was done here? Attitides like yours is what makes the world we live in a sometimes ugly place. If you cannot have compassion for an animal, you won't have compassion for humans either. This vet went to school to work with animals, presumeably because she has a love for them. She is entrusted with people's animals, most of whom regard them as family members, every day. Yet, she is proud of the fact that she shot a defenseless cat? She said it was ferrel, but video proved otherwise. I am outraged by her behavior, and I will not get over it. The fact that you are so unfeeling about such an act tells me all I need to know about you. |

Location: your guess is as good as mine | stayceem - 2015-04-17 1:54 PM Itsme - 2015-04-17 1:51 PM Did the vet stalk the poor little cat on the owners property? Keep your predatory animals on your property and nothing will happen. you're a gross human being 
I believe you are giving Itsme too much credit...
For once I'm thankful for social media. I have absolutely no problem with hunting, although I will never understand those that hunt purely for sport. This was not hunting...this was cold-blooded murder, and if she truly believed that to be a feral cat then she obviously hasn't ever seen any feral cats.

Carol I am double posting on your post and your husband's. I totally agree with your post but this is not the first time this person has posted something way out in left field. It hurts my heart to hear something like this.

 Owner of a ratting catting machine

| I think what upsets me about this picture isn't exactly that the cat died. Thousands of cats die everyday, and to all appearances, this pretty orange cat probably didn't even know what happened. He died cleanly and quickly, which I know many hundreds do not. I've seen cats die, with just a leg or pelvis crushed on the highway, getting hit by a belt under a car hood, it's horrible. This cat didn't go out that way, and his owners are hopefully relieved that if he did have to go out that day, at least he did so quickly.
What does upset me, is that this girl was treating first his life and then his body so disrespectfully. She is a veterinarian, with supposed compassion for animals, and empathy for their state. Her mindset and methods of doing wild cats in, making them a "kill" for the day, really sucks. A friend of mine, who is also a vet in the same age bracket, also from Wyoming, has been running campaigns for months at home about sterilizing wild cats and returning them back to their habitat with an ear notched as an indicator. If someone really is needing to do a stray/feral cat in, I hope they would at least have the decency to recognize it for the chore that it is, something necessary by situation, and not something to find humor in. All creatures in this world deserve to be treated with respect.
I'm also empathetic to the poor owners of the cat. I'm betting they're really missing their friend. How very awful for them, they must be blaming themselves so much!
I was friends with Kristin on Facebook for a while a few years ago. I've never met her personally, but all her pictures indicated that she was really outdoorsey and full of life. I don't think she's the demon that everyone is thinking she is, but rather someone that does love to kill animals that she perceives as pests. Having shot my fair share of prairie dogs, skunks, raccoons, rabbits, badgers, gophers, voles, and yes, even the occasional starving and disease ridden stray cat, I can't judge her for killing a stray cat. HOWEVER, I do feel very upset at her evident lack of respect for him (my Dad would have given me a real ass whipping, and that's if my PaPa hadn't found me first, for dangling God's creature in the air like that), and I absolutely condemn her judgment in killing a healthy, fat, shiny, and probably friendly housecat in a neighborhood where it must have been obvious that he was somebody's pet. Omg how STUPID!! I'm glad she got reported, because she was just plain ignorant.
As for Itsme, well, you know how that goes. Typical behavior, and you notice he's not been asking for any help from the board with his daughter's horses here lately? He's really sweet when he wants something. He knows what he's doing. He just likes to put people's panties in a twist, nevermind him, he just likes to say stupid crap that goes against the grain so he can tag himself as a 'noncomformist'. Blah, blah, blah. |

Location: Heart of Texas | Dr. Wuenderlich and Dr. Buenger are old enough to be her father. I'm assuming the other vet is Dr. Wuenderlich's son. Who is married to someone else, and has 3 kids.
This troll is always addressed as Ms. I have no idea where people think this chick is married to someone at the clinic. She does not have the same last name as anyone there. It's amazing how stuff gets started.
Here is a link to the clinic.

She may have kept her maiden name and may still be a marriage relate.

Location: Texas | This is wrong for so many reasons. Who in their right-mind, kills a cat with a bow. I do know and understand some animals need to be killed, BUT do it humanely and your neighbors cat don't fall into the "Need to Kill" category.
I hope she gets charges filed on her AND her license to practice revoked.
My granddaddy always said, there was a special place in hell for people that were cruel to children and animals.

With all the publicity, if a person would see her in the clinic they would post it on FB right away and feel like a hero.

I agree. I honestly don't think the clinic has a choice but to fire her - their personal feelings and opinions aside. I think people would fear she may help another vet and/or be in contact with their animal. Which would obviously cause a huge loss of business.
If she will do this to a cat, what would she do to a dog. OR even a horse and cow - with a greater monetary value.
ETA: I believe she would be fired completely, whether she ends up losing her license or not.
