This is a better picture of the veterinarian, Kristen Lindsey, who shot a neighbor’s cat with her bow and arrow with her mother who, it is believed, took the photo of her daughter holding the dead or dying cat with an arrow through his head.
The Daily Mail (UK newspaper) say that Lindsey allegedly ‘hunted down’ Tiger in her backyard. This tells us she carefully hunted the cat and was probably quite close when she fired the arrow because it was very accurately placed in the back of the head. There are a lot of people who strongly dislike cats wandering into their backyard. There are some who say it is legal to kill trespassing cats in the USA. One of them is the infamous troll, Woody.
Also it is a local shelter who said that the cat, Tiger, was not feral. It was the rescue center who appears to have identified this domestic cat as belonging to a neighbor. If this is true, it raises the question: why? Tiger must have been at the shelter before and if so for what reason.
Here is the link to the AVMA where a complaint can be filed about this deranged vet:

Thanks Susan. I agree I may have been a bit to strong in the language I used. However, the image of Lindsey holding the cat with the arrow so accurately placed in the face and through the head indicates strongly that she was close and she was stalking the cat. Also the cat was a domestic cat and likely to have been approaching her perhaps for an interaction. The word ‘allege’ is technical. It is used to avoid defamation proceedings. All the online newspapers have covered the story using similar language to mine.
Ok this needs to be corrected.
“The Daily Mail (UK newspaper) say that Lindsey allegedly ‘hunted down’ Tiger in her backyard. This tells us she carefully hunted the cat and was probably quite close when she fired the arrow because it was very accurately placed in the back of the head.”
You state that the Daily Mail (an organization repeatedly sued for inaccurate stories) says she “allegedly ‘hunted down’”. So a paper with hardly any credibility says “allegedly”. From that you infer this: “This tells us she carefully hunted the cat..” No it doesn’t… it says that the Daily Mail was desperate to cash in on the momentum of this story, it says nothing about actual facts.
The level of hysteria over this incident has reached insane proportions. If 1/10th of the same social outrage was put towards any other cause we’d be curing cancer and feeding starving children by now. What happened to that poor cat is very sad but it’s a matter for the legal system to decide now. Put just a fraction of the time people are spending on this into another cause and do something to actually change the world.
Michael,ye my dear man need an (edit) button :O)
Well it seems I offended some people who run the other Tiger pages by using the photo of Tiger above,they told me in a threatening manner to remove that photo and that I stole it off their page,incorrect so after a long ugly dispute between the admin of the other pages and my admins on my page I had thought we came to an understand after I logged off last night but then I wake this morning being told my page was reported to facebook for stealing images,let them report because the photo wasnt copy righted,it is really pathetic when adults act like little children over images,I had thought we were all in solidarity to bring justice to Tiger but they seem more concerned over images,their excuse was they didnt want confusion,where was the confusion when I created the page last saturday when their page had been pulled,well tis water under the bridge and will move forward and keep fighting for Tiger and him getting the justice he deserves.
Irish , that is very sweet of you to post the contact info, I would like to send a little card or something.
I know if that were my cat then it would be me the DA was after because I would kill that women.
To:law enforcement , please don’t allow such an act to go unpunished … Please !
