Your pet, who you may not have even known could get pregnant, has just had a litter of babies. You don't have the resources to take care of several tiny mouths and find them homes, so what's there to do? Why, drown them, of course! It was relatively common to drown unwanted, usually young, pets. This has fallen out of practice in exchange for better pregnancy preventative measures (namely, spaying and neutering pets) and giving pets up to shelters if you can't home them, but the practice still persists in some more rural, poor areas or areas where cruelty to animals isn't frowned upon or legally condemned. There's a lot of Values Dissonance to this and it's usually Played for Drama or sadness. It might also be a Kick the Dog moment, a sign of Bad People Abuse Animals. Saving a drowning pet is a convenient way to introduce a character. It might also lead to a friendship or Rescue Romance. In some cases, surviving this is how a pet becomes A Pet into the Wild. |

Tom and Jerry: In the episode Heavenly Puss, there's a shot where a soggy bag begins bouncing and Fluff, Muff, and Puff (who would later appear in Triplet Trouble) emerged from the bag. That's one, kids wouldn't figure out. The 1954 cartoon Puppy Tale begins with a motorcar driving over a bridge, then tossing a sack into the creek. Jerry Mouse is nearby, and he fishes the sack out of the water with a branch. Five puppies emerge from the sack, and one especially grateful pup shadows Jerry thereafter. |

Mentioned in the fourth The Queen's Thief book as part of Deliberate Values Dissonance (and tying into one of the story's Central Themes). Berrone once convinced her father, Baron Hanaktos, to ban the drowning of kittens. The city subsequently became overrun with strays until the citizens got fed up and went on a cat-slaughtering spree that upset everyone, and Hanaktos quietly rescinded the order so that such an event wouldn't be repeated. | |

In The Cat Came Back, Mr. Johnson's second attempt to get rid of the cat is to go to the middle of a lake and dump the cat inside a sack tied to an anchor. As he tries to drop the anchor, however, he breaks through the bottom of the boat, which takes the cat safely to shore. At the bottom, Mr. Johnson is surrounded by dozens of sacks tied to anchors. | |

Death, a Kindhearted Cat Lover, is very unhappy about this. In Moving Pictures, Gaspode the Wonder Dog says his first memory is being tied in a sack next to a brick by his former owners. The only reason he survived at all is that the water in the Ankh river is so dirty and polluted it's almost impossible to drown in it. He recalls he thought the brick was his mother for a while. |

This is the origin of Green Lantern villain Dex-Starr. Being the victim of an attempted version of this (just for fun, no less) ended up being the final straw (after a Trauma Conga Line that included his litter being abandoned as a kitten, his adopted owner being murdered, and being left homeless) for a cat named Dexter, filling him with so much anger that it drew the attention of a Red Lantern Power Ring, turning him into Dex-Starr. | |

Miraculously, not only did he survive, but he soon grew into the sock and made it into a makeshift sweater. | |

In Kittens in the Kitchen, the first Animal Ark book, a cat-hating janitor is so enraged when a cat gives birth on his favorite shirt that he gives Mandy one week to find new homes for the kittens, or else he'll kill them. His wife, who is much more sympathetic to the kittens' plight, tells Mandy that when she was young, it was common practice to drown unwanted litters in the rainbarrell, and her husband almost certainly will go through with this should they fail to meet the deadline. Thankfully, Mandy is able to find loving owners for each kitten before this can happen. | |

Discussed in Anne of the Island, where Anne, Priscilla and Phil try to kill an unwanted stray cat that has wandered into the house by a more humane method of chloroforming it.

The Witches: This fate is used as a threat when a hotel maid discovers the hero boy's pet mice. The manager orders him to keep the mice in the cage, and the maid keeps trying to catch him with the mice out, telling him that the first mouse to break the rule will be drowned. Later, when Bruno is turned into a mouse, and is given back to his horrified parents, the hero and his grandmother wonder sadly whether Bruno suffered this fate. | |

Warrior Cats (manga): The Rise of Scourge: As a kitten, Scourge's bully siblings told him that Twolegs throw unwanted kittens into rivers. Scourge, then known as "Tiny", was so scared that he ran away from home, which ultimately led to his Start of Darkness. Escape from the Forest: Sasha notices a bag floating in the river that she draws the Captain's attention to; inside is a kitten that she nurses back to health and raises. |
