  • Agreed, while a gun can be used for torture, it’s not as effective at instilling fear after the first or second non-lethal shot. The pain isn’t intense enough for long enough to instill raw terror in the subject.

    It can certainly be effective if used right, and/or in tandem with other methods, but there’s much better ideas that would break the persons mind more effectively and quickly.

    At this point I’d like to say I’ve never tortured someone, but I’ve an overactive imagination.

    All that said, my go-to idea requires restraints on the victim laying on a table. Once that’s done, hot metal, dry ice, pliers, hammers, and a knife are the best tools. Sandpaper for some flavor.

    Edit: so I guess the best tool in this case would be a hammer and nails?

    As much as I agree, trying to keep indoor, a cat that’s used to life outside, it’s really hard, and may stress them out a lot.

    Several years ago at my (then) house, we had a regular visitor that I called Neighbor. There was one winter in particular that was especially cold, so when he came to visit, I tried bringing him in to help him warm up, and he practically fought and cried the whole time. Of course after a few minutes of getting toasty, I let him go on about his routine.

    I imagine doing that for an extended period of time would greatly stress the cat out in an unhealthy way.
