Sentence Help: Adding め After the Word for Owl


I am reading Harry Potter in Japanese, and there is a line that reads:「
あのふくろうめを黙らせられないなら、始末してしまえ！」

The way I interpreted this quote is as, "if that owl cannot be made silent,
then make it end!" However, I can't figure out why there is a め after the word
for owl, ふくろう.




In this case, he's saying "If that d****d owl doesn't shut up..." and
something about plucking the life out the poor bird.
