I have a dilemma and I'm just wanting some objective opinions.
My boyfriend Chris' parents live a few houses away from this rotten family. The dad is this Native alcoholic that's always in and out of jail. He married a white trash woman who is also an alcholic. They have three kids - two girls and one boy. The oldest girl is about 17 years old and she's slept with probably over 25 different guys. No exaggeration. You can kind of get an idea of how this family is. Chris' youngest sister used to be friends with the youngest girl of that family, who is 9 years old. The boy is 12 and their dad always lets him drink and smoke pot with him. Even on his MySpace profile, he's got pictures of him getting drunk with his dad, and then another where he's smoking weed out of a hookah.
Anyway, since Cheyenne was friends with their youngest daughter, she'd go over to their house a lot. They aren't friends anymore and haven't been for a while, but I know things about them. They are just bad people. They have a pitbull and a kitten. They really neglect and abuse their pets. The dog never has any food, water or shelter, and it can never go inside. Same with the kitten. I don't know why, but they just don't let their animals in the house, no matter the weather.
Cheyenne told me that she has seen the family literally kick the kitten out of the house. It would try to get in, and they would just kick it hard back outside. They've also gotten buckets of water and just poured it on the kitten, as well as using the hose and spraying it down like crazy. For no reason at all. Just because they think it's funny. Like I said, they also don't give it food, water or shelter.
Well, Cheyenne and I were going for a walk the other day and we saw the pitbull harassing the kitten in their front yard that is fenced in. The kitten was terrified and kept trying to get away. No matter what, though, the dog would find it and start biting at it and such. We decided we had to do something. We were trying to think of a way to get in their yard without them noticing, and take the kitten away from the dog. Cheyenne got the guts to open the gate, walk up to where the kitten was, and grab it. We ran off back to her house and stood outside, unsure of what to do from there. I told her I would take it home, and they would never have to know. She said that her mom probably wouldn't let me do that. It isn't up to her mother, but she'd be giving Chris and I a ride home that night. She could have just said she isn't taking us home, and then we'd be screwed. I decided to just let the kitten go back home and figure something out later.
So, here I am. It's later, and I just can't NOT do something about this. I really want to go back over there without them knowing, and steal the kitten. I would call the humane society, but they are awful in this town. They don't ever respond unless there's a dog attack or something. They suck a lot of ass. If I want to do something about this, I'm just gonna have to take matters into my own hands. I'm wondering if you guys think it's unethical and/or immoral to do this. Am I a thief? Am I a bad person for wanting to save this kitten from its awful life?
Sorry this is long, I'm just wanting some input. Thanks.
