A hangbag is causing massive controservy online after it was revealed that the cat purse is being auctioned online by a website in New Zealand.

The disgusting, bizarre item – which includes cat’s head, which is intact – has been put up for sale on the auction site TradeMe – and has an eye-popping starting price of $1, 400.

 
Exclusive: Punish thugs that cut dog’s ears off and posed for photos!

According to the description provided in the auction, this unsual item was made by professional taxidermist Clare Hobbs; the text informs users that ‘it expresses the author’s artistic passions and desire to engineer the surreal, especially with the help of feral and domestic felines’.

Logan Mudge, a website spokeperson, reported that no cruelty was involved involved in the making of this object.

‘It’s definitely a statement bag. It’s surely not for me, but we suspect there will be a buyer out there who is keen to purchase it. It’s quite an unsual item and we believe the auction will receive a lot of attention during the next week’.

We, the undersigned, are deeply distraught about this handbag and ask the TradeMe website to remove it from being aunctioned as soon as possible. This item needs to be taken off the web immediately, because it is of poor taste and utterly disrespectful towards every animal in this world. Although no real cat was used in the production process, this hangbag illustrates the celebration of death and this should not be happening when an animal passes away. Turning a lifeless cat into a handbag is simply unacceptable, no matter what the circumstances are.

The aunction ends this week-end, please act fast to spread the word and do not allow this disgusting handbag to receive so much publicity!

PS. I got a chance to take a close look at the comments that were posted on the auction page and discovered that most readers where deeply appalled by this hangbag. There were some people that were quite confused about this item (for instance, they were wandering how the cat actually passed away) while only a small percentage of readers thought the bag looked ‘pretty’.
