Vandals torture kittens
Bartholomew County, June 2 - Little Charlize is a one-month-old kitten that survived torture by vandals. Bartholomew County Humane Society officials say someone hung her upside down with a rope and burned the kitten with a lighter.
"It burned all the hair on her face to the nasal passage," says Jane Irwin with the Humane Society. "The tip of her tongue and her lips are burned. I have done this job 25 years, I still can't get my mind around this level of evil."
Charlize is getting good care and will be adopted by the animal control officer investigating the case.
Two other kittens died from abuse.
Poice say vandals damaged equipment at a Taylorsville grain bin where the kittens lived.
The Humane Society already raised more than $2,000 for information leading to an arrest.
