Once upon a time, there wa' a young lad who 'ad a cat. This cat got preggers and 'ad a whole mess o' kittens. The family couldna sell or give away the kittens, so the da finally 'ad t' put 'em inna sack and toss 'em inna lake. The kitten's 'orrible, piteous drowning cries haunt the little boy's dreams even t' this day.

Now git t' bed and dinna ferget t' tell yer parents t' neuter the cat.
