When the kitten was born the owner should have done the right thing and put the poor creature to sleep as vets recommended, not pass it to Jack for her to try and use for attention
The episode is horrific - the poor thing. And she was told from the beginning this would happen. The poor vets who had to see her take the kitten away when they knew it would only get worse.
Thank you for keeping the receipts. It’s just horrifying. Does she even understand the concept of veganism? Or did she just see it as something she could monetise?Christ. I'd forgotten quite how much of a bleep she was through all that. Disgusting behaviour
Thank you for putting that together - it's really quite shocking reading it in full. Didn't she also post about washing her then subjecting her to a blow dry the day she died? I remember the pic because she looked so poorly.For anyone who wasn't around at the time, or is starting to doubt what happened, don't let Jack gaslight you. Here is what happened to the kitten in her own words (images collected by various frauen from Jack's Twitter & Insta):

That's the basic story. I focused on lies about the vet and medical treatment, rather than the weird videos, monetised tribute, and other strange issues. Anyone who stumbles across this: Jack Monroe repeatedly lied about taking her disabled kitten to the vet. Despite being told "it's not advised to do nothing", she did nothing until the animal died. She is a bleeping monster.
Note: compiling this post was not fun. But if Jack is lying about it over at Linda McCartney's Insta, people should know the truth.
I’ve updated the wiki before so have added the link for this as well.A hard post to read but brilliantly put together thanks CL.
Could we ask a mod to put a link to this post in wiki in kitten section?
I can’t imagine how sick in the head you have to be to want to play about with an animal so feeble & weak? She was doing photo shoots in slings and balancing him on her shoulders, washed & blow dried the corpse. Like @PoorPatrol said the whole thing is very don’t f with cats, it’s terrifying behaviour tbh. Also can’t understand why she started looking like a nitty in this era (sorry for crass term I know it’s not gr8 but I can’t think of another word for it)Anyone with a brain cell could tell by looking at the little kitty's eyes that it was very ill and in distress - its third eyelid was showing in every photo, and this eyelid/nictitating membrane is a red flag that a cat is very sick indeed.
Her refusal to listen to advice, friendly and professional, coupled with her using this sick animal as a literal prop in her photos is truly appalling.
It makes me so sad to think in that poor kitten's short life she was repeatedly forced to painfully walk on her paws and probably lived in fear of that massive cat leering over her while Jack just laughed and took photos. Poor thing was probably just scared and confused for every waking moment.I can’t imagine how sick in the head you have to be to want to play about with an animal so feeble & weak?

Thank you @colouredlines for creating this time line, I’ve never been on the wiki so this may be duplicative but should we add this as the ultimate kitten post on there? xx
God forbid Jack actually listens to the advice of someone who can't guarantee her some cash and a TV appearanceI honestly think the supervet would have recommended the same as other vets. But the poor thing died before she could make the appointment.
I can’t help but wonder what the criteria is for getting onto SuperVet - do you need to have 3 other vets tell you to PTS before they’ll look at your application? So weird how a so called animal lover would ignore the advice of not one, not two but THREE different vets and still believe that she’s so maverick enough that a TV vet could work some magic that other vets could not.I honestly think the supervet would have recommended the same as other vets. But the poor thing died before she could make the appointment.
Still there for meHave they deleted the comments from the spring roll video? I can't see the Jack saga there now :/
They’re still there - and some helpful fellow has added a link to this threadHave they deleted the comments from the spring roll video? I can't see the Jack saga there now :/
Genuinely think she had no idea she was being cruel. She'd totally mythologised herself into the saviour of this kitten (like when a vet told her it would normally be euthanised at birth and she was like I know, that's why I have it). She had an idea in her head that she was the only true animal lover willing to fight for the kitten as if the vets weren't recommending euthanasia as a kindess.Honestly I was allready here at the time of all this but seeing this all laid out you realise how cruel she was to that poor kitten. Multiple vets telling her this and she ignores them and look what happens
