No, I'm saying that people have a choice, and animals don't. Dying an animal's fur is temporary. Giving a dog a funny haircut is temporary, and it doesn't hurt. But piercings can hurt. If a person wants to do it to himself, kol hakavod (all to his honor) -- it's his choice. But piercing a cat for the purpose of revenge (which is what you're suggesting here, even though it's a joke) is beyond what I can tolerate.
