Players with hands tied behind them competed to kill a cat nailed to a post by battering it to death with their heads, at the risk of cheeks ripped open or eyes scratched out by the frantic animal’s claws… Or a pig enclosed in a wide pen was chased by men with clubs to the laughter of spectators as he ran squealing from the blows until beaten lifeless.16
In the sixteenth century, in Paris, a stage spectacle that was much appreciated by the crowds consisted of slowly lowering into a fire cats hanging from ropes, and watching them struggle with horrible cries until they were reduced to ashes.
