Animal Abuse in Connecticut

Oh God Nita... That story... Awful, just awful.

Sorry to say this, but it doesn't surprise me one bit that the politicians in a country like Spain (read: the country of bullfighting, cockfighting etc) doesn't care about what happened.

That's true - it seems that bullfighting is a major obstacle in issuing a new law . The outraging fact here is that lots of people (Spanish people, of course -> something is changing) have already signed asking the Parliament to discuss about Animal Rights, and still politicians pay no attention to that !!!
Cockfighting is banned here, and not popular at all.

Glad to hear that there are Spanish people who are against bullfighting Nita! Oh, and sorry for my comment bout cockfighting, I thought it was just as popular as bullfighting. Glad to hear I was wrong.

Today was the arraignment of this 19 year old %$#@*&! that killed Adonis. My adrenalin was pumping!! Mazurek appeared with her parents and boyfriend. They waited outside the courthouse. We had almost 30 people from rescue and animal activist groups with signs that had Adonis' picture on it. They tried to hide behind a pillar of the building. We were in her face!! Telling her she's a cat killer, hoping that when she closes her eyes at night all she sees is poor Adonis trying to wade his way back to shore. This girl had the nerve to say "What're you gonna do, hunt me down and kill me??" She had absolutely NO remorse whatsoever. Her father claims the cat pooped all over his daughters residence (which is a lie because he was litterbox trained!) I said "So that why it's okay to kill a poor innocent animal???"

The thing that really fries my behind is the fact that our tax dollars are going to represent this piece of white trailer trash cat killer, because she's getting a public defender!!!

A couple of television stations were there recording all of it. 3 newspapers were also there. When they walked out, they were escorted by two marshalls. Again we were in her face screaming at her. It felt good!

So they got a continuance for June 13th. You can bet we will all be there, in her face. The prosecuting attorney has been inundated with letters and petitions to give these people a stiff sentence to show that animal abuse will not be tolerated.

Her two accomplices sat in court with smirks on their face like they were proud of what they had done.

I'll keep you posted as the saga continues.

When I read cruelty stories, I am almost ashamed to be human! If things were reversed and animals took the place of humans and humans became pets, I am certain they would never mistreat us! Do these people have no conscience? I pity them! I bet they feel high and mighty for the damage they cause. I pray that God will punish them for their actions. And I know He will!

I couldn't agree more! This whole thing just (&^(E$(*#$* me off to no end!! I really cannot fathom torturing and killing an innocent animal because....??!!! It just makes me so and that people don't take this issue more seriously. It's obvious that these people are a menace to society...AND especially if they think it's funny and/or show no remorse!!! Too bad we just can't 'get rid of' people like this, because they'll never amount to anything good or beneficial to society. OK, maybe that was a little harsh...but still! They should get the most strict of sentences possible, plus psychological help. It is a proven fact and correlation between animal torturers and killers becoming torturers, abusers and in extreme cases...serial killers. Anyway you look at it...they're criminals with no conscience or respect for life.
You would think after all these years that people would notice this and do something about it! Too bad these worthless excuses for human beings can't experience for themselves the pain and suffering they put on others...

I wish all cat (and animal) killers would rotten in....you know where! Man I hate those kind of people who have no brain what so ever, they kill a cat (or other animals) and don't even regret it. Not that regretting would bring them back.
I don't get it how these people can live with themselves anymore after killing such adorable creations as cats are, and even those who kill kittens. HOW on earth can you do that? Adult killing a tiny little kitten who didn't do anything to you, and who cannot defend at all from you. Any killer does not deserve to live!
Unfortunately we have these people among us here too....

"Trucker in Mississauga throws 10-year-old dog from cab window

WHITCHURCH-STOUFFVILLE, Ont. (4 April, 2002) The Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Ontario SPCA) is alerting the public to a case of animal cruelty that occurred Monday night, April 1, in Mississauga when a person reportedly threw a dog out of a tractor-trailer.

According to an eyewitness who informed the Ontario SPCA, a person travelling on Carrier Drive at about 9:50 p.m., April 1 near the junction of Highway 27 and Albion Road threw the dog out of a white tractor-trailer.

The informant rushed to the aid of the dog and brought the animal to a security gatehouse in the area. Ontario SPCA Agent Robert Tamblyn handled the case. The approximately 10-year-old Maltese-Poodle cross received initial veterinary care and surgery at an emergency animal clinic in Willowdale. The dog is now in the custody of the Ontario SPCA, receiving further veterinary care and assessment at the Whitchurch-Stouffville-based Ontario SPCA Centre.

Any member of the public who can provide any information concerning this incident is asked to call the Ontario SPCA toll-free at: 1-888-ONT-SPCA. All calls are confidential.

Society calls on the public to contribute to PAIN Fund

The dog suffers from a broken pelvis, numerous contusions and possible head trauma. It is also having great difficulty breathing."

.. but the good news is....

"WHITCHURCH-STOUFFVILLE, Ont. (3 May, 2002) - The Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Ontario SPCA) is happy to announce that "Felix," the dog thrown from a tractor-trailer in the Highway 27-Albion Road area April 1, is reunited with his owner.

Theresa Gauci of Malton, Ont. saw media coverage of the April 1 dog-throwing incident in Mississauga and identified the five-year-old Maltese-Poodle cross as her dog, which had gone missing from her backyard March 31. She and her daughter Stacey are now reunited with "Felix," who also went home to his parents, 11-year-old "Snowy" and 10-year-old "Tiffany."

Blood match confirmed parentage
After having received the call from Ms. Gauci, the Ontario SPCA interviewed the woman and carefully assessed her claim as being the owner. Blood samples of both "Felix" and his parents confirmed parentage.

Society grateful for donations
"We're very pleased that Felix is reunited with his family," says Vicky Earle, CEO of the Society. "We are most grateful to the members of the public who donated money to help us offset the costs of veterinary care and boarding for this dog." The Society cared for Felix at the Whitchurch-Stouffville-based Ontario SPCA Centre for a broken pelvis, numerous contusions, head trauma and difficulty in breathing. The costs exceeded $3,000.

Reward money available
Reward money in the amount of $5,000, generously donated to give to the individual providing information about the dog-throwing incident that would lead to an arrest and conviction, is still available."

At least Canada is doing something about it...

IMO, animal abusers aren't fit to live. PERIOD!!

[Former User]

Okay, FINE! I get the point. I haven't done ANYTHING wrong and I get to suffer. I'm the bad guy here, again, not the one who actually killed those cats. Why should I let someone off th ehook after doing what you have done Spencer? Look at your own reactions to this post, how you react to cat killers!

Oh well, this was the last post from me. I'm not coming back to a board that allows people like Spencer be here and even support him. Have fun everyone! You are so much better off without me!

Yeah, off the soap box....

GOODBYE EVERYONE!!!!


EDIT NOTE: this was a reply to Spencer's reply, which has suddenly dissapeared!!! He accused me off all kinds off thngs in it....

"She has had a vendetta since March 15. When a thread got way out of hand, as a fill-in moderator I attempted to seek calm and Niina (Casper & Kitty) took it as a mortal insult."

That is NOT why she feels the way she does. Atleast be honest please.

Some things cannot be forgiven. I'm sorry but I agree with moosmom on this one, people who have hurt animals, over and over, just... Well, you get it.

Sure, I have done things in the past that I regret and even though I have changed and put them behind me I realize, that even though they aren't even close to the graveness that this matter has, that I cannot be forgiven for it, because my behavior back then simply doesn't DESERVE forgiveness.

[Ann]

Oh Niina... this isn't fair I'm so sorry... Don't do this please though! I know there would be so many people here who would miss you so much... Including myself

[Ann]

What the... his reply dissapeared?!

Now that is even more unfair... A person should NOT have moderating abilities if they will just do things like that to their own advantage!!!!! That's BS...

[Randi]

I've just skimmed though these posts - and I'm sorry, I just couldn't finish reading them now. It's SO HORRIBLE I don't have words for it!!

I'd like to say more about it, but I can't now.

Well, I've now seen page 2 and 3 - and it's just too much!!

What the heck happened here?

I'm so confused!! What post?
