is this considered animal cruelty?
I often go to the house of my friend where there are a lot of stray
cats. The super, or handyman of the building often sets up cages to trap these stray cats and I think there is poison inside. He leaves the cats locked inside the cages for 2 to 3 days after they ingested the food, and then he lets them out. The cats are all wobbly when released and look like they're about to die. is this against the law, or are cats considered to be pests like rats? |

Definitely cruelty. Please notify your SPCA (or similar) organization as
soon as possible. Even if this guy isn't poisoning the animals, leaving them in a trap for 2-3 days is not humane. Possibly they can remove the animals from the location, leaving super/handyman with nothing to do in his spare time. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

As others have said it is animal cruelty I would contact the SPCA, humane society or relevant authorities. You seem to be in Korea so I am not sure who you have to contact. |

Would it be cruelty to poison the food and have the cats die quickly while in the cage? |
