Reddit review: I think both the website philosophy and the moderators are cruel.

I comment on a post in r/cathelp, where the original poster found a pregnant cat and did not know what to do.

I speak of compassion -- as other commenters seemed almost rabid in their advice to spay and abort the litter.

I speak of compassion for the kittens.

I speak of the seriousness of the surgery, and the high probability of complications for the mother cat, all from reliable internet references.

I speak of the high financial cost of the procedure.

I give a face and a voice to the voiceless kittens.

I posted a photo of a kitten with the caption, "LOVE ME. I WANT TO SEE THE SUNSHINE. I WANT TO PURR AND LOVE YOU."

I am banned from the subreddit for expressing compassion.

I find there is no way to appeal such a ban.

I think the first amendment should apply to private corporations as well as to public ones.

I know the moderators broke their own rule of "Be Nice."

Recommendation: I recommend avoiding r/cathelp entirely, and if you do need help, really examine if there is intelligence of the advice you receive.
