Kurt Zouma / 180 hours community service + banned from keeping cats for 5 years

West Ham United defender Kurt Zouma has been ordered to carry out 180 hours of community service after he pleaded guilty to kicking and slapping his cat.

The 27-year-old has also been banned from keeping cats for five years.
He had admitted two offences under the Animal Welfare Act at a hearing at Thames Magistrates' Court in May.

I think that sentence is fine, but I never really got why in these cases they always limit the animal ban to a set amount. Owning a cat isn't some fundamental right that people need, if you're a dick to them just make it a life ban.

Agree 100% percent. He should be banned from owning animals altogether.
 
cnut is a captain now. Classy club. Moyes; "He learned a lesson".
Pathetic.
Moyes isn't very good at reading the room. He came out with multiple dumb quotes in press conferences during his short tenure at United.
Moyes is obviously a dog person.
I remember after the incident he said he was an 'animal lover' who owns dogs and horses. I'm convinced if he was a cat owner then he'd have less time for Zouma.

Clearly Moyes doesn’t give a shit - if iir he didn’t even drop him at the time of the incident. Personally I’d have taken him round the back of the main stand and teach him the error of his ways with baseball bat. I can’t abide animal abusers.

I don’t agree with violence as punishment. Except for against people who abuse animals, so I’m with you on the baseball bat for this cnut.
 
Why is he still not in jail?

We need a season 2 of this, except this time we know who the culprit is!

Nobody gives a shit basically. For few weeks it was a news and that is it.
And one year later, cnut is a fecking captain of West Ham.

Yep - that’s disgusting - Karma dictates West Ham get relegated and The cat kicker gets a career ending injury - Cnut
 
I’m going against the grain here and say that I don’t have much of an issue with this. What he did was disgusting and imo his attitude towards animals probably didn’t change much in general (animal abusers don’t tend to get an epiphany and become loving caring responsible pet owner). However, he has been fined, he has suffered the consequences of media scrutiny and hostility from the stands, and unless new evidence surfaces that he continues to abuse animals, he shouldn’t be barred from a work promotion on merit due to past transgressions.

It can't be good for the rest of the players to have a sociopath as a captain though.

If I played for West Ham I'd gradually grind Zouma down with subtle psychological warfare. Every time we crash into each other on the training ground I'd scream "meow" instead of "ow", but in a way that's not too obvious. Just to make him question his sanity. After the training session I'd ask him if he wants a "kick cat", upon which he'd reply "what" and then I'd say "KitKat. You know, the chocolate? What's the matter Kurt, you're trembling".
 
I do. Being captain of any club is an honour. Which violent piece of shit like him doesn't deserve. And it tells the story about West Ham too.
Got to forgive mate. Hate in your heart will consume you.

It's just fecking cat.

It should be honored being abused by captain of West Ham United.
 
Anyone catch the words of the chant at Old Trafford today? Something cat-related when he was down in our box.
