What affects us affects cats
This is a terribly sad tale of police apathy in the face of obvious cat cruelty and it irks me to read about it. What is particularly upsetting is the cat was loved by 8-year-old Michael Fuentes. It happened last Sunday. Michael was playing with his friend outside when he saw his beloved cat …
WMTW-TV reports that Michael Herrmann killed the cats with his bare hands. Astonishing. Truly crazy but he is not crazy. The cats were owned by a family friend who was staying with him.
