We all heard about the crazy case of the woman throwing a cat in a trash bin,then closing the lid over it; the poor cat’s owners having found her 15 hours later and discovering the culprit on their security camera.
The woman, Mary Bale, has said “I thought it would be funny. I never thought it would be trapped; I expected it to wriggle out.” according to the UK Daily Mail. Aside from the questionable reasoning of this argument, noone seems to be laughing.
The RSPCA (Royal Society for the Protection and Care of Animals) is taking this seriously. She has been charged with two animal cruelty offenses – for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal and for not providing it with a suitable environment. Each of these carries a possible prison sentence, plus being barred for life from owning pets. Her next court appearance is in October. Source: Daily Mail.
Anger and outrage over the intial report and subsequent video sparked a Facebook page, angry comments on both, even death threats against the woman.
Perhaps everyone will calm down now, knowing justice is being served, or at least in the works.
Lola is doing well and back in her home happily.
