Authorities are usually tipped-off to &#8220;Cat Shacks&#8221; or &#8220;LOL Factories&#8221; by concerned citizens reporting stumbling packs of flat-nosed felines aimlessly wandering neighborhood streets.  Officer Bon Sykton goes on to explain,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p> &#8220;Cat wranglers keep their subjects docile and compliable by administering powerful narcotics.  If the cat survives the initial photo shoot it almost always comes back to the LOL Factory for a quick fix and inevitably forced to endure further humiliation.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pixelwit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/inhuman-humiliation-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Inhuman Humiliation\" width=\"330\" height=\"439\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-321\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Regarding the flat noses, Officer Sykton continues, <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It took us a while to figure this one out but after interviewing a few convicted cat wranglers we learned that over zealous photographers will often bash their camera lenses into a cat&#8217;s face when they&#8217;re trying to capture the highly prized &#8220;Super Close Up&#8221; shot.
